Sanheim scored a goal and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings.

Sanheim has a goal and three helpers over his last five outings, and he's also gone plus-6 in that span. The 29-year-old still saw 26:54 of ice time despite the Flyers dressing seven defensemen in this game. Sanheim is up to seven goals, 30 points, 75 shots on net, 127 blocked shots, 41 hits and a plus-6 rating over 68 outings this season. He has now reached the 30-point mark in four of the last five campaigns but likely won't come near his 44-point effort from his career year in 2023-24.

Konecny scored a goal, added two PIM and doled out two hits in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings.

Konecny has two goals over his last five games. The 29-year-old forward is up to 25 tallies, 59 points, 141 shots on net, 85 hits, 55 PIM, 34 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating through 64 appearances. Konecny handles ice time in all situations and can be a reliable scorer for fantasy, though his playmaking has regressed this year after he had a career-best 52 assists in 2024-25.

Cates scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, blocked two shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings.

Cates has two goals and three helpers over his last five contests. He's been dialed in even longer than that, earning four goals and seven assists over 12 contests since the Olympic break. For the season, the 27-year-old forward is up to 14 goals, 37 points, 102 shots on net, 80 hits, 47 blocked shots, 37 PIM and a plus-17 rating through 68 appearances. He's been productive from the third line and needs just one more point to match his career high from the 2022-23 campaign.

Ersson stopped 22 of 25 shots in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings.

This was a close battle for much of the game, but Ersson still played well enough to help the Flyers get the win. He stopped both attempts in the shootout to secure the victory, his third in his last four outings. The Swedish netminder is now 11-10-5 with a 3.28 GAA and an .864 save percentage over 28 appearances, so it's unlikely he'll unseat Dan Vladar as the Flyers' top goalie. Look for Vladar to get the nod Saturday in San Jose to close out this road trip.

O'Brien was scratched for the 12th consecutive game in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

O'Brien's not the only regular forward in the press box for the Mammoth, as Brandon Tanev has been scratched regularly as well. Head coach Andre Tourigny clearly likes the 12 forwards he's been rolling with lately, leaving no room for O'Brien to get in. Prior to the Olympic break, O'Brien went 18 contests without a point, which didn't help his case for more playing time. He has three points, 26 shots on net, 43 PIM and 93 hits over 32 appearances this season.

Stenlund logged an assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

Stenlund missed Monday's game in Dallas but was able to shake off a lower-body injury ahead of Thursday's matchup. He saw 16:12 of ice time in this contest, helping to protect a lead with his defensive skills for much of the game. The veteran center has four helpers over his last seven outings and is up to 16 points, 57 shots on net, 50 blocked shots, 35 hits, 24 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 67 appearances.

Marino notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

This assist ended a five-game point drought for Marino. The 28-year-old blueliner has seen his role shrink since the Mammoth acquired MacKenzie Weegar from the Flames prior to the trade deadline. Marino still sees top-four minutes in a shutdown capacity. The veteran blueliner has a career-high 31 points with 49 shots on net, 62 blocked shots and a plus-93 rating through 69 appearances.

McBain scored a goal on two shots and added seven hits in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

McBain has scored in back-to-back games after going 20 contests without a goal. The 26-year-old continues to play on the third line, which suits him well as a strong checking forward. He's up to eight goals, 24 points, 101 shots on net, 249 hits, 40 blocked shots, 67 PIM and a plus-13 rating over 69 appearances. He still has time to challenge his career-best 27-point output from 82 games a year ago.

Hayton scored an empty-net goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

Hayton had been limited to just one goal over his last nine outings. This was his first multi-point effort since Jan. 24 versus the Predators. Hayton's inconsistent offense is a big reason why he remains in a third-line role, though he's also part of the first power-play unit. The center has 10 goals, 25 points, 116 shots on net, 34 hits, 29 blocked shots, 52 PIM and a plus-5 rating over 64 appearances this season.

Keller scored two goals on six shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

Keller's two goals came within the first 6:05 of the contest. He's heating up again with three tallies over his last two outings after going five games without a goal. The 27-year-old winger is up to 22 goals, 67 points, 194 shots on net and a plus-24 rating over 69 appearances. He'll need a big surge to get to the 30-goal mark for the fourth year in a row, but Keller remains a reliable source of offense on the Mammoth's top line.
