Michal Postava G | DET
Red Wings' Michal Postava: Facing Oilers
Postava will guard the road goal against Edmonton on Monday, according to Jonathan Mills of the Red Wings' official site.
Postava will get his first NHL start after he made a relief appearance against Vancouver on Thursday. The 24-year-old netminder stopped seven of eight shots in a 5-2 win over the Canucks, but Edmonton will be a much stiffer test. The Oilers (8-2-1) lead the league with 4.36 goals per game this campaign. Postava has a 4-0-0 record, a 1.25 GAA and a .954 save percentage in four outings for AHL Grand Rapids this season.

Brayden Schenn C | NYI
Islanders' Brayden Schenn: Scores in Sunday's loss
Schenn scored a goal on two shots, added five hits and went minus-2 in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Stars.
Schenn has a goal and two assists over his last three games. He started the season on the wing, but he's playing down the middle while the Islanders are missing Calum Ritchie (lower body) and Mathew Barzal (knee). Schenn has produced offense at a good pace so far with three goals, five assists, 23 shots on net, 23 hits, 11 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 11 appearances. He should continue to see time on the second line and first power-play unit.

Lian Bichsel D | DAL
Stars' Lian Bichsel: Delivers assist Sunday
Bichsel notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-4 rating in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Bichsel helped to force a turnover and then set up Mikko Rantanen on the Stars' last goal. The 22-year-old Bichsel isn't a strong source of offense, but he is playing in a top-four role at even strength. He has a helper, six shots on net, 24 hits, 19 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-2 rating over 11 outings this season. If he continues to block shots at a significant rate, he'll have some appeal in banger leagues, though hits will be his top area of production.

Tristan Jarry G | EDM
Oilers' Tristan Jarry: Starting against Detroit
Jarry will start Monday's home game against the Red Wings.
Jarry started just four times over the Oilers' first 11 games of the season, going 2-1-1 with a 3.73 GAA and .851 save percentage. However, he's set to see additional playing time since Devon Levi (undisclosed) is expected to miss a few weeks after landing on injured reserve Friday. The Red Wings have logged 2.55 goals per game to begin the regular season, which is the seventh-worst mark in the league.

Roope Hintz C | DAL
Stars' Roope Hintz: Offers pair of assists
Hintz logged two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Hintz has consecutive multi-point games, and he's racked up three goals and three helpers during a four-game streak. The 29-year-old center is doing his part in a top-six role, though he carries a bit of injury risk and has already had a couple of scares early in the season. He's at 10 points, 23 shots on net, 18 hits, nine PIM and a plus-8 rating across 11 appearances.

Justin Hryckowian C | DAL
Stars' Justin Hryckowian: Pots power-play goal
Hryckowian scored a power-play goal on two shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Hryckowian has had a slow start to the season on offense despite maintaining a middle-six role with power-play time. The goal was his first point in 11 games to go with 13 shots on net, 22 hits and two PIM. The 25-year-old provides some skills as an agitator, but expectations were higher for him after his 30-point rookie season in 2025-26.
-
Tyler Seguin C | DAL
Stars' Tyler Seguin: Two-point effort in win
Seguin scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
Seguin has a pair of multi-point efforts this season. He was on the top line Sunday, though Seguin's usage has mostly resembled that of a middle-six forward for much of the campaign. He's up to three goals, three assists, 29 shots on net, seven hits, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating across 11 appearances.

Kevin Korchinski D | CHI
Blackhawks' Kevin Korchinski: Gathers helper in loss
Korchinski notched an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers.
Korchinski has had limited opportunities to play this season -- this was just his second game. The defenseman did better than in his first outing Oct. 3 versus the Sabres, though he had a miscue that led to a Florida goal. Korchinski is a non-factor in fantasy until his place in the lineup stabilizes. He'll battle with Ethan Del Mastro for playing time until Bowen Byram (upper body) is ready to return.
-
Andrew Mangiapane LW | CHI
Blackhawks' Andrew Mangiapane: Draws in, earns assist
Mangiapane notched an assist in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers.
Mangiapane was activated from injured reserve Friday but sat out a ninth straight game against the Canadiens. He replaced Oliver Moore in the lineup Sunday, and Mangiapane was able to chip in a helper for his first point in two games. He's likely to fill a bottom-six role for much of the rest of the season, giving him minimal fantasy appeal.

Matias Maccelli LW | NYI
Islanders' Matias Maccelli: Moves to IR
Maccelli (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Monday.
After suffering a lower-body injury against Toronto on Oct. 17, Maccelli has sat out the last three games. He was expected to miss 2-4 weeks, so his move to the IR list won't impact his timeline. Maccelli has earned two goals, six points and 13 shots on net in eight appearances this season.
