  • Islanders' Anthony Duclair: Pockets assist Saturday

    Duclair notched an assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Flames.

    Duclair was in the lineup for the third time in the Islanders' nine games since the Olympic break. He looks to be firmly in a part-time role, battling with Max Shabanov for playing time. Duclair has contributed 27 points, 69 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 57 appearances this season.

    Canadiens' Noah Dobson: Dishes pair of assists

    Dobson notched two assists in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Sharks.

    Dobson had the secondary helper on goals by Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki. The 26-year-old Dobson has a pair of two-assist games over his last seven outings, but he's gone scoreless in the other five contests in that span. For the season, he's up to 44 points, 132 shots on net, 151 blocked shots, 41 hits, 30 PIM and a plus-12 rating over 65 appearances in a top-four role.

  • Sharks' John Klingberg: Collects two helpers

    Klingberg logged two assists, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens.

    Klingberg earned his first multi-point effort since Jan. 27 versus the Canucks. He has three assists over his last four contests. Klingberg has slipped to the second power-play unit, which lowers his ceiling for scoring. The defenseman is at 10 goals, 14 helpers, 77 shots on net, 60 blocked shots, 41 hits, 20 PIM and a minus-13 rating over 50 outings this season.

  • Sharks' Mario Ferraro: Nets goal in win

    Ferraro scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens.

    Ferraro gave the Sharks a lead at 11:56 of the second period. It was his first goal since Jan. 19 versus the Panthers, though the defenseman has four points over nine outings since the Olympic break. For the season, the 27-year-old is at five goals, 16 points, 74 shots on net, 108 hits, 119 blocked shots, 31 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 64 appearances.

  • Danila Yurov RW | MIN

    Wild's Danila Yurov: Reaches 10-goal mark

    Yurov scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.

    Yurov has two goals over his last three games and is up to 10 tallies this season. The 22-year-old rookie is playing in a middle-six role currently, so he won't be a big producer on offense as long as the Wild's forward group stays mostly healthy. Yurov has a total of 25 points with 68 shots on net, 43 hits, 35 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 60 outings.

  • Matt Boldy LW | MIN

    Wild's Matt Boldy: Strikes on power play again

    Boldy scored a power-play goal on four shots, added two PIM, logged two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.

    Boldy has scored in three straight games, and his last two goals have come on the power play. The 24-year-old winger is up to a total of 38 goals this season, including 11 on the power play and four shorthanded tallies. He's earned a career year already with 75 points, and he's matched his career high of 26 power-play points from the 2022-23 regular season. A 90-point campaign is still within the range of outcomes for Boldy, who has taken a star turn this year.

  • Rangers' Jaroslav Chmelar: Pots goal Saturday

    Chmelar scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Wild.

    Chmelar is getting an extended look on the fourth line, and he's scored twice over six games since the start of March. The 22-year-old won't have a lot of upside in that spot, but he's done enough to keep his place in the lineup. Chmelar has two goals, nine shots on net, 19 hits, eight blocked shots and seven PIM over his first 12 NHL outings.

  • Rangers' Vincent Trocheck: Puts away insurance goal

    Trocheck scored a goal on three shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Wild.

    Trocheck ended an eight-game goal drought with this effort. He still had nine assists in that span. The 32-year-old center is up to 13 goals, 46 points, 91 shots on net, 150 hits, 48 PIM, 42 blocked shots and 48 PIM over 51 appearances. Trocheck remains a bright spot for the Rangers while filling a top-six role.

  • Noah Laba C | NYR

    Rangers' Noah Laba: Stays hot with power-play goal

    Laba scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Wild.

    Laba typically doesn't get much power-play time, but he was able to cash in while on the ice near the end of a Minnesota penalty. The 22-year-old's game has taken off lately with three goals and two assists over his last five outings. For the season, the rookie center has nine goals, 21 points (five on the power play), 60 shots on net, 94 hits, 40 blocked shots and 22 PIM over 63 appearances in a middle-six role.

  • Oilers' Ryan Nugent-Hopkins: Game-time decision Sunday

    Nugent-Hopkins (personal) will be a game-time decision Sunday against the Predators, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

    Nugent-Hopkins missed Friday's game against the Blues, and his status for Sunday is up in the air after he didn't participate in line rushes during the morning skate. The 32-year-old has enjoyed another solid season, registering 50 points (17 goals, 33 assists) in 57 games. Matt Savoie has seen a big bump in usage during Nugent-Hopkins' absence, playing on the top line with Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman.
