Fabbri scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.

Fabbri hasn't gotten many chances to play with the Wild since he was claimed off waivers from the Blues in early March. He got a look late in the season while the Wild rested some regulars. Fabbri ends the regular season with five points, 30 shots on net, 44 hits and a minus-4 rating over 21 appearances, and he may not play often during the playoffs.

Eklund posted an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

This was Eklund's NHL debut after he spent seven games with AHL Bridgeport. He had nine points in those contests. Eklund's scoring skill has translated well since he came over from the SHL in March, and he'll be in contention for an NHL job in 2026-27.

Horvat scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

It was the 300th goal of Horvat's career, a milestone he reached in his 881st game. That puts a positive spin on the end of the campaign, though Horvat will no doubt be disappointed to miss the playoffs. He snapped an eight-game goal drought Tuesday and ends the season with 31 tallies, 57 points, 226 shots on net, 51 hits, 38 blocked shots, 40 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 68 appearances. That matches his point total from 81 regular-season contests a year ago, and this was the fourth time in five years he got over the 30-goal mark.

Jankowski scored a goal and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Islanders.

Jankowski has three goals over his last three games. The 31-year-old played a larger role while the Hurricanes rotated some players out of the lineup over the last week of the season. Expect Jankowski to be a regular on the fourth line in the playoffs, though Jesperi Kotkaniemi could come in if Jankowski struggles. Over 68 appearances this season, Jankowski produced 21 points -- the most he has had since his 32-point year with the Flames in 2018-19. He also added 63 shots on net, 45 hits, 45 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating across 68 appearances.

Ehlers scored a goal on five shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Islanders.

While several of the Hurricanes' big-name players were held out of some games recently, Ehlers remained a fixture in the lineup. He ended up playing in all 82 regular-season contests for the second time in three years and the fourth time in his 11-year career. He was the only Hurricane to play in every game this campaign. The 30-year-old winger also finished with a career-high 71 points (26 goals, 45 assists) while adding 207 shots on net and a plus-8 rating. Ehlers should be a regular in the middle six during the postseason, but he'll also be a major part of the power play.

Jenner scored a goal on four shots and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Capitals.

Jenner has three points over his last three games, his longest streak since he got on the scoresheet in four straight contests from Dec. 29 to Jan. 4. The 32-year-old had another steady campaign with 13 goals, 25 assists, 132 shots on net, 147 hits, 66 blocked shots and 44 PIM across 67 appearances. He is poised to be an unrestricted free agent in the summer if he doesn't reach an extension with the Blue Jackets.

Coleman scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Avalanche.

Coleman snapped a four-game goalless skid by finding the back of the net in the first period of this 3-1 loss with a tip-in. The goal allowed Coleman to reach the 20-goal plateau for the fourth time in his career. He'll head into Thursday's regular-season finale with 35 points (20 goals, 15 helpers) across 68 appearances.

Beauvillier scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

Beauvillier was able to snap a seven-game goal drought in the season finale. The 28-year-old winger closes out the campaign at 28 points over 82 appearances, his best total since he had 34 points in 75 games for the Islanders in 2021-22. He added 155 shots on net, 93 hits, 48 blocked shots, 30 PIM and a plus-7 rating this season. Beauvillier is under contract with the Capitals for 2026-27.

Makar recorded three assists in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Flames.

Makar returned to the lineup after a seven-game absence due to an upper-body injury, and he did it in style by contributing directly to each of the team's goals. Makar has been an elite fantasy contributor among defensemen, and this three-assist performance elevated his helpers total to 58 on the season, the fifth-best mark among blueliners. The only defensemen who have recorded more assists than Makar are Evan Bouchard (71), Quinn Hughes (69), Lane Hutson (66) and Zach Werenski (59).

Chychrun scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

Chychrun snapped a four-game point drought with the tally. The 28-year-old defenseman will end his career-best campaign with 26 goals, 60 points (18 on the power play), 221 shots on net, 114 blocked shots, 62 PIM, 58 hits and a plus-20 rating over 80 appearances. Chychrun will enter 2026-27 as the Capitals' top defenseman and should be a popular pick in fantasy drafts, though his goal scoring may regress slightly after he shot a career-high 11.8 percent this year.
