Soderblom stopped 18 of 23 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Bruins.

Soderblom was spotted a 2-0 lead in the first period, but it was gone by the end of the second. The Bruins didn't let up in the third, sending Soderblom to his first loss since Dec. 20. The 26-year-old netminder has gone 5-8-1 with a 3.97 GAA and an .868 save percentage over 15 appearances, numbers that make him virtually unplayable in most fantasy formats. He'll continue to occupy the backup role behind Spencer Knight, who will likely start at home against the Jets on Monday.

Lindholm logged an assist in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Lindholm saw 20:03 of ice time in his return from a six-game absence due to an undisclosed injury. The 31-year-old looks good to go for top-four minutes once again, though he's become a substantial injury risk whose scoring hasn't made up for it. He's at 15 points, 60 shots on net, 59 blocked shots, 36 PIM and a minus-8 rating over 35 outings this season. He's earned four of those points over his last three games.

Mittelstadt notched two assists in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Mittelstadt earned his first multi-point effort since Nov. 1 versus the Hurricanes. The 27-year-old continues to hold a second-line role, and he has two goals and six helpers over his last nine outings. He's up to 23 points, 47 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 39 appearances this season.

Zacha posted two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Zacha continues to surge in January. He has four goals and five assists over eight contests this month. The 28-year-old center is up to 35 points (14 goals, 21 helpers), 75 shots on net, 40 hits, 24 PIM, 19 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 48 appearances. Zacha should continue to have plenty of scoring upside in a second-line role. He's on pace to push for the first 60-point campaign of his career.

Lindholm registered two assists, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Lindholm had gone three games without a point after sustaining a lower-body injury in a Jan. 10 blowout win over the Rangers. The 31-year-old didn't miss a contest, but his offense has slipped since then. He's up to 32 points (eight goals, 24 helpers), 61 shots on net, 36 blocked shots, 29 hits, 32 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 39 outings in a top-line role.

Pastrnak registered two assists and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Saturdays are for assists -- Pastrnak has earned 10 helpers over his last three Saturday games. That shouldn't detract from his overall strong offense -- he's earned five goals and 13 helpers in total over his last nine contests. For the season, the superstar winger is up to 59 points (20 goals, 39 assists), 153 shots on net, 51 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 44 outings.

Khusnutdinov scored a goal in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Khusnutdinov has scored in consecutive contests and is up to six goals and three assists over eight outings in January. The 23-year-old continues to see his even-strength minutes on the top line, which has certainly helped him achieve more scoring success. He's at 11 goals, 22 points, 47 shots on net, 22 hits, 21 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 44 games this season.

Arvidsson scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Arvidsson has four goals and four assists during his seven-game point streak. His latest tally put the Bruins ahead 3-2 late in the second period, and it stood as the game-winner. For the season, the winger is up to 11 goals (including five game-winners), 25 points, 101 shots on net and a plus-10 rating through 37 outings. Arvidsson continues to thrive in a second-line role.

McAvoy scored a goal and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

McAvoy got the Bruins on the board at 1:55 of the second period, the first of three tallies for his team that stanza. The defenseman has gotten on the scoresheet in eight of his last nine games, totaling two goals and eight assists in that span. For the season, he's up to three goals, 29 points, 54 shots on net, 47 hits, 71 blocked shots, 36 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 37 outings.

Lohrei scored two goals, including one on the power play, in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Lohrei earned his first multi-point effort since Dec. 4 versus the Blues. The defenseman has four goals and two assists over eight outings in January for his best month since October. Overall, the defenseman has six goals, 21 points, 45 shots on net, 56 blocked shots, 25 hits and a plus-6 rating over 44 appearances this season.
