  • Penguins' Sidney Crosby: Two helpers in Thursday's win

    Crosby picked up two assists in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils.

    The 38-year-old had a hand in tallies by Egor Chinakhov in the second period and Evgeni Malkin in the third. Crosby has reeled off three straight multi-point performances, and over 11 games since returning in mid-March from a lower-body injury he's delivered two goals and 15 points. He remains one goal away from his 14th career 30-goal campaign with three games left in the regular season for the Penguins.

  • Blackhawks' Louis Crevier: Slides two helpers Thursday

    Crevier supplied two assists and dished out two hits in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

    Crevier continued his career year Thursday with a pair of helpers on Anton Frondell's two goals. Overall, Crevier is up to 18 assists, 23 points, 110 shots on net, 119 hits and 91 blocked shots across 75 games this season. The 24-year-old blueliner has six points over his last eight games. He's maintained high-level category coverage in that span with nine shots on net, eight hits and 17 blocked shots. He holds solid streaming value in deep leagues and has high upside in dynasty formats if he can continue his all-around production next season.

  • Penguins' Erik Karlsson: Two points in New Jersey

    Karlsson collected a goal and an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils.

    The veteran blueliner continues to run hot or cold, but mostly hot. Karlson has produced multi-point performances in eight of the last 14 games, but he was held off the scoresheet entirely in the other six. Over that stretch, he's churned out nine goals and 22 points, and with three games left in the regular season for the Penguins, Karlsson sits four points shy of his sixth career 70-point campaign.

  • Penguins' Evgeni Malkin: Two-point effort Thursday

    Malkin scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils.

    It was the third straight multi-point performance for Malkin, who's piled up four goals and eight points during that surge. In the process, the 39-year-old reached the 60-point mark for the 14th time in his career, and he sits one tally shy of his 16th 20-goal campaign.

  • Blackhawks' Anton Frondell: Finds twine twice in loss

    Frondell scored two goals, fired five shots on net and recorded two blocked shots in Thursday's 7-2 loss to Carolina.

    Frondell continued his excellent stretch of play to begin his NHL career with both of Chicago's goals Thursday. The 18-year-old center is up to three goals, eight points, 24 shots on net, eight hits and nine blocked shots through nine games. He has a bright future in Chicago's top six and should be a staple in all fantasy formats next season. This year, however, he offers excellent streaming value in most league formats.

  • Hurricanes' K'Andre Miller: Lights lamp in big win

    Miller tallied a goal, put two shots on net and served two PIM in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Miller found the back of the net for his second consecutive game Thursday early in the final frame. Overall, the 26-year-old blueliner has eight goals, 37 points, 122 shots on net, 99 hits and 77 blocked shots through 71 games this season. Since March 4, he's been a frequent contributor offensively with four goals, 13 points and 35 shots on net across 19 games. He's maintained strong category coverage during that time, making him a great fantasy option for the remainder of the regular season.

  • Egor Chinakhov RW | PIT

    Penguins' Egor Chinakhov: Big night in playoff-clinching win

    Chinakhov scored the game-winning goal and added two assists in Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Devils.

    The 25-year-old winger gave the Penguins a 3-1 lead midway through the second period when he got behind the New Jersey defense, corralled the puck and slipped a backhand past Jake Allen. Chinakhov is on fire to close out the regular season, putting together a five-game point streak in which he's racked up four goals and 10 points.

  • Hurricanes' William Carrier: Posts hat trick of helpers

    Carrier recorded three assists in Thursday's 7-2 win over Chicago.

    Carrier had his best playmaking game of the season Thursday, as he picked up helpers on the Hurricanes' fourth, fifth and seventh goals of the night. Overall, the 31-year-old winger has 11 assists, 18 points, 77 shots on net and 168 hits across 68 games this season. After a quiet campaign offensively, he has at least one point in back-to-back games. He should continue to play middle-six minutes on the wing for the remainder of the regular season.

  • Penguins' Stuart Skinner: Snags win over Devils

    Skinner made 19 saves in Thursday's 5-2 win over New Jersey.

    The Penguins never trailed in the game as they clinched a playoff spot. Skinner has been inconsistent at best since the Olympic break while working in a timeshare with the Arturs Silovs, and the former is running out of time to make a clear case to be the team's No. 1 in the postseason. Over his last 12 outings, Skinner has gone 4-4-4 with a 3.18 GAA and .885 save percentage.

  • Taylor Hall LW | CAR

    Hurricanes' Taylor Hall: One of each Thursday

    Hall tallied a goal, distributed an assist and put two shots on net in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Hall picked up the primary helper on Logan Stankoven's second goal of the game before finding the back of the net himself near the midway point of the third period. Overall, the 34-year-old Hall has 18 goals, 30 assists, 136 shots on net, 53 hits and 30 blocked shots across 79 games this season. Hall has been on a tear during his five-game point streak with three goals and eight points. He's an excellent waiver-wire addition in most fantasy formats for the remainder of the regular season.
