Drew Doughty D | LA
Kings' Drew Doughty: Tallies in overtime loss
Doughty scored a goal in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Bruins.
Doughty has three points over his last four games for one of his better stretches of the campaign. The 36-year-old blueliner is up to 17 points in 54 outings overall, matching his point total from just 30 regular-season contests in 2024-25. Doughty has added 76 shots on net, 59 blocked shots, 30 PIM and 24 hits this season while maintaining a top-four role.

Wild's Matt Boldy: Snaps scoring drought
Boldy scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Mammoth.
Boldy ended a streak of four games without finding the back of the net with his goal Tuesday, his 36th of the campaign. However, the star winger has found a way to remain productive even when he's not scoring. In seven games since the end of the Olympics, Boldy has racked up 11 points (four goals, seven assists), 30 shots, eight hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-5 rating.

Wild's Kirill Kaprizov: Two points in win Tuesday
Kaprizov recorded a goal on three shots, an assist, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Mammoth.
Kaprizov has been scorching hot of late and has found the back of the net in five of his last six appearances. He has eight points (five goals, three helpers) in seven appearances since the break. On the season, he has 37 goals and 78 points in 65 appearances. He is on pace to flirt with the 100-point plateau if he remains healthy and productive for the remainder of the year.

Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Posts 25-save shutout
Gustavsson stopped all 25 shots he faced in Tuesday's 5-0 win over the Mammoth.
Gustavsson extended his winning streak to three starts, but his excellent play goes well beyond his win-loss record. The 27-year-old goaltender has allowed two or fewer goals in each of his five appearances since the break, a stretch in which he's gone 4-1-0 with a 1.21 GAA and an impressive, yet unsustainable, .960 save percentage.

Karel Vejmelka G | UTA
Mammoth's Karel Vejmelka: Beaten five times Tuesday
Vejmelka stopped 25 of 30 shots in Tuesday's 5-0 loss to the Wild.
Vejmelka had wins in each of his previous two starts, but his recent performances haven't inspired much confidence. The 29-year-old netminder has allowed at least four goals in three of his four appearances, posting a 3.72 and an .868 save percentage in that span. Even though his numbers have been trending in the wrong direction of late, he should remain a high-volume starter down the stretch for the Mammoth.

Mason Lohrei D | BOS
Bruins' Mason Lohrei: Pots goal Tuesday
Lohrei scored a goal in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Kings.
Lohrei ended a nine-game point drought with his tally to open the scoring at 3:44 of the third period. The 25-year-old defenseman continues to fill a bottom-four role, though he also remains in the power-play mix despite his recent lack of offense. For the season, Lohrei has seven goals, 24 points, 60 shots on net, 78 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 59 appearances.

Dylan Holloway LW | STL
Blues' Dylan Holloway: Point streak reaches four games
Holloway scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.
Holloway gave the Blues a 2-0 lead at the 9:10 mark of the second period with a wrister. He has two goals and four assists during this ongoing four-game point streak, which also happens to be his longest point streak of the campaign. The 24-year-old playmaker has 10 points (five goals, five assists) and an impressive plus-11 rating in seven games since the end of the Winter Olympics.

Jimmy Snuggerud RW | STL
Blues' Jimmy Snuggerud: Extends multi-point streak
Snuggerud recorded a goal on eight shots while adding two assists, two PIM, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.
Snuggerud has recorded three straight multi-point performances, providing three goals and four assists. He has eight points (three goals, five assists), 21 shots, 11 hits and three blocked shots in seven outings since returning from the Olympic break. Snuggernud could be a productive player for fantasy managers down the stretch while occupying a top-six role with the Blues.

Matthew Tkachuk LW | FLA
Panthers' Matthew Tkachuk: Two helpers against Wings
Tkachuk pocketed two assists in Tuesday's 4-3 win over Detroit.
Both helpers came in the final 90 seconds of the third period, as Tkachuk found Carter Verhaeghe for a pair of goals that erased a 3-2 deficit. Tkachuk has recorded multiple points in three of seven games since the Olympic break, a stretch in which the gold medalist has collected five goals and 11 points.

Joel Hofer G | STL
Blues' Joel Hofer: Tagged with OT defeat
Hofer stopped 45 of 49 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.
The Blues jumped to a 3-0 lead midway through the second period, but the Islanders rallied with four unanswered goals to hand Hofer the loss. Still, he has gone undefeated in regulation in his last five outings, going 4-0-1 with a superb 1.59 GAA and .948 save percentage over that stretch. He should remain an excellent fantasy option based on his hot play since the Olympic break.
