Sennecke notched four assists, including three on the power play, and added two shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Canucks.

Sennecke had arguably his best game of the season with the quartet of helpers. The 20-year-old winger has racked up three goals and five assists over his last five contests while playing in a top-six role. Sennecke has a total of 16 points (nine on the power play), 36 shots on net, 19 hits and 22 PIM across 15 appearances this season.

Carlsson scored a shorthanded goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Canucks.

Carlsson's point streak is up to five games (three goals, eight assists) after his first shorthanded tally of the year. He's at five goals, 17 helpers, 24 shots on net and a minus-4 rating across 15 appearances this season. Carlsson continues to play in all situations, and while his power-play work has been most prolific, he should be an overall steady scorer from the Ducks' top line.

Granlund scored a power-play goal and added two assists in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Canucks.

One of his helpers also came on the power play. Granlund has earned five points over his last four games, with all but one coming on the power play. The 34-year-old's presence in the bumper spot on the first unit has helped the Ducks unlock some recent success with the man advantage. Granlund is up to four goals, nine assists, eight power-play points, 24 shots on net and a minus-5 rating over 14 appearances this season.

Gauthier scored three goals (two on the power play) on six shots in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Canucks.

Gauthier's finishing touch has arrived over the last week -- he's scored eight goals, including six on the power play, over his last three games. That appears to be some course correction after he struggled to find the net earlier in the season. Gauthier is up to 10 tallies, five assists, 59 shots on net, 12 hits and a minus-6 rating over 14 appearances. The 22-year-old is the best shooter on the Ducks' roster, and while this torrid pace won't last, he should be a threat for 40-plus goals.

Brossoit stopped 19 of 23 shots in Tuesday's 5-4 win over the Canucks.

Brossoit's two starts with the Ducks haven't been pretty -- he's allowed seven goals on 45 shots, but he's come away with a pair of wins. That's been enough to put Lukas Dostal and Ville Husso both on notice. Given Anaheim's defensive woes, none of the three goalies would be an attractive fantasy option for Thursday's game in Edmonton, which is the first half of a back-to-back set that ends Friday in Calgary.

McDonagh scored an empty-net goal Tuesday in a 4-2 win over the Red Wings.

It was his first goal this season (14 games); his last snipe came March 22, 2026 in an overtime win over Calgary. McDonagh had two blocks Tuesday to bring him to 16 on the season. But with just one goal and two assists in 14 games, he doesn't being enough production in secondary categories to warrant rostering.

Raymond scored a goal in a 4-2 loss to Tampa Bay on Tuesday.

Raymond has 12 points (six goals, six assists) in his past eight games; he was held off the score sheet just once in that span. Raymond's slow start is well behind him -- he had only four assists in his first eight games, but he's now rolling at a point-per-game pace (16 games; six goals, 10 assists, 50 shots).

Compher had a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Lightning.

The goal, his second this season, came on the power play. Compher has two goals, two assists and nine shots in his last four contests. The third liner has six points (two goals, four assists) and 14 shots in nine games. Compher put up 52 points with the Avs in 2022-23 and followed that up with 48 for the Wings the next season, but his production in Motown dropped to 28 points, including 11 goals, in 82 games last season. Compher doesn't offer much in peripheral categories, so he needs to be putting up a lot of points to become fantasy relevant. We're not confident that's coming anytime soon.

Tarasov made 12 saves in relief after entering Tuesday's game against Tampa Bay to start the second period. He allowed one goal in a 4-2 loss.

John Gibson didn't return to the ice after the first intermission with what was described as a lower-body injury. There was no update on the starter's health after the game, but head coach Todd McLellan said Tarasov will be in line for extra games. The big goalie has been sharp this season. Tarasov is 2-1-2 with one shutout, a 1.74 GAA and .927 save percentage. This may be the opportunity he needs to showcase his ability.

Vasilevskiy made 19 saves Tuesday in s 4-2 win over Detroit.

His team spotted him a 3-0 lead by the 8:41 mark of the second frame, but the outcome was never in doubt. The Wings did claw back after turning the heat up in the third period, but Vasilevskiy turned in some big saves to preserve the lead. It was good to see him batten the proverbial hatches and allow just two goals. Vasilevskiy had allowed 13 goals in his previous three games (1-1-1). Overall, he's 7-3-1 with a 2.91 GAA and .879 save percentage.
