Guenther recorded a goal, an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Predators.

Guenther has posted multi-point performances in each of his last four games and five of his last six, so he's ending the regular season on a sizzling note. This has already been a career-best season for Guenther, and with four games left on the Mammoth schedule, the star winger is within reach of scoring 40 goals for the first time in his career.

Schmaltz recorded a power-play goal and an even-strength assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Predators.

Schmaltz's two-point performance helped Utah clinch a playoff berth for the first time in franchise history, and the star winger is ending the season on a sizzling note. He's found the back of the net in four of his last five games and is also riding a six-game point streak. Furthermore, Schmaltz has cracked the scoresheet in all but two of his last 11 appearances, tallying 13 points (seven goals, six assists) and 32 shots on goal over that stretch.

Saros stopped 23 of 27 shots in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Mammoth.

Saros has dropped his last two starts, going 0-1-1 with a 2.89 GAA and an .891 save percentage in that span. The 30-year-old goaltender is ending the season on a sour note, posting a save percentage under the .900 mark in four of his past five appearances while delivering a 3.30 GAA over that stretch.

Vejmelka stopped 29 of 30 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Predators.

Vejmelka extended his winning streak to five games with an excellent performance, and this was his best individual outing since his shutout against the Golden Knights on March 19. The Mammoth clinched a playoff spot after this win, and Vejmelka has played a significant role in the team's recent rise. He owns a 2.80 GAA and an .898 save percentage during his ongoing five-game winning run.

Robertson scored the game-winning goal in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Wild.

Robertson found the back of the net at the 10:35 mark of the final frame, as his wrister past Filip Gustavsson allowed the Stars to complete the comeback win in a matchup with massive playoff implications for both teams. Robertson continues to play at an extremely high level for the Stars and is up to 92 points (42 goals, 50 assists) in 79 contests. This has been the second-best season of his career from a scoring perspective, only trailing his 109-point campaign from the 2022-23 season.

Rantanen recorded a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Wild.

Rantanen helped set up Wyatt Johnston's goal in the first period, and the former later came through in the clutch with a deflection that tied the score 4-4 at the 4:28 mark of the third period. Rantanen has played at a high level since returning from a 15-game absence March 28, tallying seven points (two goals, five assists), nine shots on goal, seven hits and three blocked shots in seven contests since returning to the lineup.

Johnston recorded a goal, an assist, four PIM, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Wild.

Johnston built off the two-goal performance he had against the Flames on Tuesday with another strong showing here, breaking the deadlock for Dallas and later assisting on Mikko Rantanen's equalizer in the third period. Johnston has recorded two-point performances in three of his last five games and is up to 21 points (12 goals, nine assists) in 20 outings since the beginning of March.

Reichel was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday.

Reichel was called up from the minors March 18, scoring once and adding an assist in his first game versus Winnipeg, but he picked up only one assist in the following eight games. He was a healthy scratch in two of Boston's last three games. Boston is Reichel's third NHL team this season, and he has combined for three goals and eight points in 28 games in 2025-26.

Oettinger stopped 27 of 31 shots in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Wild.

Oettinger was beaten twice in the first period and twice more in the second, but three of those goals came when the Wild had the man advantage. The Stars mounted a late comeback, though, erasing a 3-1 deficit and later scoring twice in the third to complete the turnaround. Despite the win and his 4-1-0 record over his last five appearances, it's hard to get excited about Oettinger's recent performances. During that five-game stretch, the star netminder has posted a 2.79 GAA and an .869 save percentage, and the numbers look even more worrisome when factoring in that he posted a 22-save shutout against the Jets in that stretch. Oettinger and the Stars have a favorable matchup against the Rangers on Saturday.

Kaprizov scored two power-play goals on four shots in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.

Kaprizov went scoreless in the 5-2 win over the Kraken on Tuesday but posted a hat trick in the win over the Red Wings on Sunday, meaning the star winger is up to five goals on 14 shots over his last three games. Kaprizov has 45 goals on the season and is ending the regular season on a sizzling note with nine points (seven goals, two helpers) in his last six outings, a span in which he's also racked up 24 shots on goal, five hits and three blocked shots.
