Kucherov picked up an assist Thursday in a 6-1 win over the Panthers.

Kucherov's apple extended his point streak to 10 games (six goals, 18 assists). The veteran winger is a generational talent. He is just nine points from the century mark and has done it in just 51 games (91 points), which would mark his fourth straight season reaching that threshold.

Cousins scored a goal on three shots and added five hits in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flyers.

Cousins has two goals over his last five outings. The 32-year-old continues to see bottom-six minutes, though his ice time has gotten a boost since David Perron (groin) exited the lineup. For the season, Cousins has eight goals and 16 points, both of which are his highest marks since his 27-point campaign with the Panthers in 2022-23. He's added 52 shots on net, 116 hits, 61 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 56 contests this season.

Stutzle scored the game-winning goal and added two hits in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flyers.

Stutzle has scored in five straight contests and has six goals and four assists during a seven-game point streak. He's taking a ton of momentum into his time with Germany at the Olympics. Stutzle is up to 28 goals, 61 points, 145 shots on net, 89 hits, 31 PIM, 38 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating across 57 appearances this season.

Reimer stopped 15 of 16 shots in Thursday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flyers.

Reimer has gone just 2-2-0 over his last four outings despite facing than fewer than 20 shots in each of those games. He's allowed 12 goals in that span. The 37-year-old is at a 3-3-1 record with a 2.90 GAA and an .870 save percentage. He's in the backup role for the Senators, though Linus Ullmark (illness) figures to make most of the starts after the Olympic break.

Bjorkstrand had a goal and an assist in a 6-1 win over Florida on Thursday.

Bjorkstrand scored his third goal in as many games (one assist; nine shots). Two of the goals have come on the power play. Bjorkstrand was a pre-draft sleeper pick who toe-picked out of the gate. But he's slowly warming up. He can help in dailies while warm.

Holmberg had a goal and an assist in a 6-1 win over Florida on Thursday.

It was Holmberg's first multi-point game since Oct. 28, and the points were his first in eight games (11 shots). He has nine goals, eight assists, a plus-9 rating and 66 shots in 48 games this season. Holmberg now flies to Italy to represent Sweden at the 2026 Winter Olympic Games.

Vasilevskiy made 33 saves in a 6-1 win over Florida on Thursday.

Another game, another win. Vasilevskiy's win streak now stands at eight games (13 goals allowed), and he hasn't lost in regulation since Dec. 18 (16-0-1). Vasilevskiy is an impressive 27-7-3 with a 2.11 GAA and .920. How dominant has he been? He began the season with a 0-3-2 record and 17 goals allowed in his first five starts. Now, Vasy gets to rest and recover during the break, so he's fresh to carry his squad toward a date with Lord Stanley.

Marchessault scored a goal in a 4-2 loss to the Capitals on Thursday.

Marchessault's overall numbers (10 goals, seven assists; 38 games) fail to impress. But there has been some warmth to this game during this cold January and February. Marchessault has seven points, including three goals, in his last eight games. He has 27 shots in that span.

Wilsby delivered two assists Thursday in a 4-2 loss to Washington.

Willsby has five assists and 10 shots in his last six games. He has no goals in 19 games and just one on the season (43 games). Willsby is not a significant contributor in muscle categories, so his deep-league value is slim to none.

Kuzmenko (upper body) won't return to Thursday's game versus the Golden Knights.

Kuzmenko was initially injured in the first period. He made a brief return in the second but left for good prior to the third. The 30-year-old's injury comes at a decent time, as he'll have until Feb. 25 before the Kings are back in action for a rematch with Vegas.
