  • Ducks' Jackson LaCombe: Three-game, three-point streak

    LaCombe scored a goal in a 4-3 shootout win over Pittsburgh on Tuesday.

    LaCombe carried the puck down the far wall and wired a wrist shot from a sharp angle over Arturs Silovs' right shoulder. The marker stretched his point streak to three games and three points (one goal, two assists; 12 shots). LaCombe has four goals, 13 assists and 67 shots in 30 games, which puts him on course to equal or better his 43-point success last year.

  • Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Registers three helpers

    Dahlin logged three assists, four shots on net and two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Oilers.

    Dahlin set up both of Josh Doan's power-play tallies as well as Alex Tuch's game-winning goal 20 seconds into overtime. With a goal and five helpers over his last three games, Dahlin is picking up the pace again on offense. He's at 23 points (10 on the power play), 72 shots on net, 23 hits, 31 blocked shots, 33 PIM and a minus-13 rating over 27 outings this season. The 25-year-old continues to see workhorse usage in a top-pairing role.

  • Penguins' Erik Karlsson: Unlucky two-assist effort

    Karlsson had two assists in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Ducks on Tuesday.

    He was unlucky, too -- the game-tying goal with 0.1 second left in the third period went in off his glove, forcing overtime and ultimately the shootout. Karlsson is having another strong season. He has 20 points, including 19 assists, in 28 games, but unless he goes on a real tear, there's no way he can hit double digit snipes. Still, Karlsson is a strong fantasy play.

  • Jets' Logan Stanley: Scores in Tuesday's loss

    Stanley scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

    Stanley ended a nine-game point drought with his third-period tally. He got the Jets within a goal, but they were unable to pull even. Stanley has found another level on offense this year with four goals and 10 points through 29 appearances after putting 14 points in 63 regular-season outings last year. He's added 30 shots on net, 52 hits, 37 blocked shots, 55 PIM and a plus-2 rating this season despite primarily working on the third pairing.

  • Stars' Alex Petrovic: Finds twine Tuesday

    Petrovic scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and logged two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Jets.

    Petrovic was on the second pairing alongside the returning Thomas Harley (lower body) for this contest. That shows just how much trust Petrovic has gained amid the Stars' ongoing defensive injury woes. For the season, the 33-year-old is at two goals, nine points, 37 shots on net, 44 hits, 46 blocked shots, 33 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 29 appearances. He's unlikely to score enough for managers in standard fantasy formats, but he's physical enough to help in banger leagues. Six of his nine points have come over his last 15 games.

  • Esa Lindell D | DAL

    Stars' Esa Lindell: Scores early in win

    Lindell scored a goal on three shots and blocked four shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Jets.

    Lindell tallied just 44 seconds into the game. He's maintained some productivity on offense with three goals, seven points and a plus-11 rating over his last 14 appearances, though he could see some premium minutes disappear with the return of Thomas Harley (lower body). Lindell is now at four goals, 11 points, 34 shots on net, 68 blocks and a plus-16 rating through 31 appearances, a scoring pace right in line with his last four seasons.

  • Lightning's Charle-Edouard D'Astous: Gets goal with increased ice time

    D'Astous scored a goal Tuesday in a 6-1 win over Montreal.

    He also finished plus-5 and had five shots in 23:46. D'Astous' ice time shot up Tuesday when the Bolts juggled its D because Victor Hedman left in the first period due to an undisclosed injury. There is no timeline for Hedman's return. It was D'Astous' first goal in seven games (one assist). Overall, he has three goals, six assists and 26 shots in 23 games.

  • Canadiens' Adam Engstrom: Recalled again

    Engstrom was called up from AHL Laval on Tuesday.

    Engstrom will provide extra defensive depth for the Canadiens on their upcoming two-game road trip. The 22-year-old made two appearances earlier in the season, logging two shots on net, two blocked shots and one hit.

  • Lightning's Darren Raddysh: Two goals help lead way

    Raddysh scored two goals in a 6-1 win over Montreal on Tuesday.

    One of the goals came on the power play. Raddysh led the Bolts in ice time with 24:26 and was once again a fixture on the power play after Victor Hedman (undisclosed) left the game early. Raddysh has five goals -- one more than Brayden Point (yes, you read that right) -- and his 20 points in 24 games is his best pace ever. Watch for updates on Hedman and make sure you have Raddysh poised for action this week.

  • Predators' Nick Perbix: Slated to play

    Perbix (upper body) is expected to be in the lineup versus the Avalanche on Tuesday, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.

    Perbix is set to be included in a seven-defensemen lineup that will allow the Predators to manage his minutes if he's not quite up to speed. He missed the previous three games. The 27-year-old has four points and a minus-11 rating over 25 outings this season.
