Panarin recorded four assists (three on the power play), three shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.

Panarin continues to be productive from the top line and first power-play unit. This was his fifth multi-point effort in his last eight games. The star winger is up to eight goals, nine helpers, seven power-play points, 45 shots on net and a minus-2 rating across 14 outings this season.

Armia scored a goal, added four PIM, logged three hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.

Armia is on a three-game point streak, earning two goals and an assist in that span. He started slow this season but looks to be back on track as a bottom-six depth scorer and physical winger. He's at three goals, six points, 21 shots on net, 28 hits, 10 PIM, 11 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 14 contests.

Haula scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, doled out seven hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.

Haula has three points over his last three games. The veteran forward earned his first multi-point effort of the campaign in this contest despite being listed on the fourth line at even strength. He's up to three goals, four helpers, 26 shots on net, 27 hits, 12 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-1 rating across 14 appearances.

Byfield scored two power-play goals on four shots in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.

Byfield has three goals and an assist over his last three games. This was his third multi-point effort of the season, but he's gone scoreless in his other nine outings. The 24-year-old is at four goals, two helpers, 31 shots and a minus-7 rating through 12 appearances. While he's struggling with consistency, the Kings continue to play him in a top-six role with power-play time.

Kempe scored three goals, dished a power-play assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.

One of Kempe's goals also came with the man advantage. He had gone into his one-game absence due to an undisclosed injury on a bit of a cold stretch, but he broke out of it in a big way Wednesday. The 30-year-old forward is up to six goals, six assists, 45 shots on net, 18 hits, eight PIM and a plus-2 rating over 13 appearances. Kempe should continue to be one of the Kings' most reliable forward.

Kuemper stopped 30 of 32 shots in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.

Kuemper faced a lot of traffic, but the Kings' offense made sure he was under little pressure. This was a fifth straight win for Kuemper, and it's the third time in that span he's allowed just two goals. For the season, he's 5-3-1 with a 3.46 GAA and an .885 save percentage over nine games. The 36-year-old still carries some risk against strong offenses, but he's done well to make sure his slow start didn't linger. He has alternated starts with Anton Forsberg lately, and if that trend continues, Forsberg would face the Penguins on Saturday while Kuemper would draw the Predators on Tuesday.

Sharangovich scored a goal in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Kraken.

Sharangovich scored in the first period, snapping a seven-game point drought in the process. The forward had played well when few other Flames were early in the season, but he's taken a backseat since the team started putting together better performances. He's at three goals, two assists, 26 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 16 appearances in a middle-six role.

Wolf stopped 27 of 29 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Kraken.

Wolf wasn't able to earn a third straight win, but he put in a good performance once again. He's allowed just five goals on 78 shots over his last three starts, getting his season back on track after a poor performance early in the campaign. Wolf is now 3-4-1 with a 3.71 GAA and an .870 save percentage across nine appearances. The Flames are set to host the Ducks on Friday, and with no back-to-backs in the near future, Wolf should see a steady run of playing time while Devin Cooley (lower body) is out.

Catton scored a goal in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flames.

Catton had a goal overturned in the first period, but he got it back in the second to tie the game at 1-1. He's quietly thrived in a middle-six role lately -- his tally Wednesday extended his point streak to seven games (three goals, five assists). The 20-year-old center has a total of five goals, seven helpers, 26 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 15 appearances to begin his second NHL campaign.

Beniers scored a goal in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flames.

Beniers was sent in on a rush by Brandon Montour and cashed in the game-winning tally. Over the last five games, Beniers has two goals and two assists. The 23-year-old has often struggled to go on extended stretches of production in his career, making him more of a streaming target in fantasy. He's at four goals, four helpers, 15 shots on net, 10 blocked shots, nine hits and a plus-6 rating over 15 appearances this season.
