    Flames' Morgan Frost: Logs two points in win

    Frost scored a power-play goal, dished an assist and added two hits in Friday's 6-2 win over the Kraken.

    Frost had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two games. The 27-year-old center continues to play an important role as a middle-six forward and a power-play option. He's up to four goals, five helpers, 25 shots on net, nine hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-9 rating over 13 appearances. With few solid scoring options available in Calgary, Frost will get plenty of opportunities to contribute this year.

  • Joel Farabee LW | CGY

    Flames' Joel Farabee: Racks up three more points

    Farabee scored a goal and added two power-play assists in Friday's 6-2 win over the Kraken.

    Farabee has multiple points in three of his last four games, and he's scored in four of his last five outings as well. The 26-year-old winger is living up to the top-six assignment he's been given this season. He has four goals, 10 assists, 30 shots on net, nine blocked shots, seven hits, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating across 13 contests. Farabee looks like he could be the Flames' best forward this season, though it's likely too much to expect the point-per-game pace to last.

  • Flames' Matthew Coronato: Best game of young career

    Coronato scored a goal, dished three assists (two on the power play) and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-2 win over the Kraken.

    Coronato logged the first four-point effort of his career, and it's also the third time he's put up three helpers. The 23-year-old winger has taken to playmaking lately -- he has multiple assists in three of his last four outings. For the season, Coronato is up to three goals, 11 assists, 30 shots on net, 11 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 13 appearances.

  • Dustin Wolf G | CGY

    Flames' Dustin Wolf: Gets back in win column

    Wolf stopped 20 of 22 shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Kraken.

    Wolf put in a good performance and got plenty of help from his offense to earn his first win since Oct. 13. He had seemingly lost the starting job to Devin Cooley (lower body), but Wolf will be the starter again while Cooley is on injured reserve. Wolf is 2-4-0 with a 4.39 GAA and an .847 save percentage over seven games this season, so he has a long way to go to earn back trust with fantasy managers. The Flames' next game is in Colorado on Saturday. It's not yet clear if they'll have Wolf start consecutive days or give Arsenii Sergeev his second career game in one of the toughest matchups in the league.

  • Tyrel Bauer D | WPG

    Jets' Tyrel Bauer: Adding versatility to toughness

    Bauer logged five PIM and two hits in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.

    Bauer technically spent more time in the penalty box than on the ice -- he had just 2:59 of ice time. He dressed as a seventh defenseman but took a couple of shifts as a forward, and he also got into a fight with Bokondji Imama. Bauer has made eight appearances this season, racking up 17 hits, four blocked shots and 23 PIM. Either as a blueliner or a forward, Bauer doesn't look to have enough scoring potential to draw attention in fantasy.

  • Jets' Morgan Barron: Puts away goal

    Barron scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and logged three hits in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.

    The tally was Barron's first of the season, and it snapped a six-game point drought for the 27-year-old. He's primarily played in a bottom-six role this season, though the Jets continue to shuffle line combinations amid an eight-game losing streak. Barron is at three points, 14 shots on net, 41 hits, 13 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating across 14 outings on the year.

  • Kyle Connor LW | WPG

    Jets' Kyle Connor: Tallies again in Friday's loss

    Connor scored a power-play goal on two shots and went minus-3 in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.

    Connor has three points over the last two games despite getting separated from Mark Scheifele at even strength. The tally was Connor's 11th of the season, including five on the power play, though he's scored only three times over his last seven outings. The winger has a total of 15 points, 57 shots and a minus-3 rating across 14 appearances.

  • Nicolas Daws G | WPG

    Jets' Nico Daws: Downed by Panthers

    Daws stopped 33 of 37 shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

    Daws did alright, but the Jets didn't have much to give in the second half of a back-to-back. This was the team's eighth straight loss, though it's the first one on Daws' ledger since he was flipped to Winnipeg in the Connor Hellebuyck trade. Daws has a 2-3-0 record with a 2.86 GAA and an .886 save percentage across six outings between the Jets and the Devils this year. With the Jets skidding, this could turn into an open competition between the three goalies on the roster to determine who gets control of the crease, though Stuart Skinner remains the favorite for now. The Jets' tough road trip continues against the Hurricanes on Sunday.

  • Bokondji Imama LW | FLA

    Panthers' Bokondji Imama: Gets in fight Friday

    Imama logged five PIM in Friday's 5-2 win over the Jets.

    Imama got into a fight with Tyrel Bauer in this contest. The 30-year-old Imama has brought the expected toughness in a bottom-six role, but he hasn't surprised anyone by chipping in more offense. He's yet to record a point while racking up 39 hits, 36 PIM, eight shots on net and a minus-3 rating over 14 appearances. He could lose his place in the lineup once the Panthers get some injured forwards back.

  • Panthers' Eetu Luostarinen: Dishes pair of helpers

    Luostarinen logged two assists and a plus-3 rating in Friday's 5-2 win over the Jets.

    Luostarinen had gone 11 games without a point prior to Friday. The 28-year-old has a pair of multi-point efforts to his name this season, but he hasn't been a major factor on offense from the Panthers' third line. He's at two goals, two assists, 18 shots on net, 21 hits, 11 blocked shots, eight PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 14 appearances.
