Ferraro scored a goal Thursday in a 6-2 victory over the Canucks.

He also had one blocked shot and one hit. Ferraro is a banger-league guy -- he already has 34 blocks and 32 hits in 17 games, and he's well on his way to delivering his sixth consecutive season of triple digits in each of those categories. This was Ferraro's second goal and point this season. His first came opening night.

Bjork picked up an assist Thursday in a 6-2 win over Vancouver.

It was Bjork's first NHL point; it came in his 17th game. The 18-year-old winger was skating with Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor at the time, which is notable -- his skill is a fit with that duo, and at 5-foot-9 and 177 lbs, he can be protected by a guy the size of Scheifele (six-foot-three, 207 lbs). Bjork may become a worthy wire grab if he sticks with these stars.

Korczak notched two assists and two blocked shots in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Bruins.

Korczak has five helpers over his last four games. He's provided decent offense from the blue line while filling a bottom-four role this season. He's up to 10 assists, 15 shots on net, 12 hits, 23 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating across 16 appearances. It's already tied for the second-best campaign of his career -- his best season was last year with Vegas, when he had 16 points in 78 regular-season outings.

Robertson scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Bruins.

Robertson ended a four-game point drought with the tally. He's been a pure finisher for the Penguins this season, though he's seen most of his playing time in the bottom six. He's up to seven goals on 33 shots while adding a plus-8 rating and 10 blocked shots. He's logged at least 14 goals in three straight years, but his fantasy value remains limited by a tough role.

Brazeau scored a goal on four shots and went minus-2 in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Bruins.

This was Brazeau's second game of the season since he returned from a lower-body injury. He's filling a bottom-six role and will provide some physicality in addition to depth scoring. He has one hit, one blocked shot and five shots on net across his two outings. In 2025-26, he racked up 17 goals and 34 points in 64 regular-season appearances.

Silovs stopped 18 of 24 shots in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Bruins.

Silovs has started to stumble, losing three straight games (0-2-1) while allowing 13 goals on 82 shots in that span. They haven't been easy matchups against the Mammoth, Golden Knights and Bruins, but it's a rough patch for a goalie who was hot-and-cold over the first few weeks. Silovs is now 5-5-1 with a 3.26 GAA and an .876 save percentage through 11 starts. Goaltending has been a weak spot across the organization this season, but Silovs could still face some pressure if Sergei Murashov can get on track. Both goalies should get a look over the weekend as the Penguins visit the kings on Saturday and the Ducks on Sunday.

Skinner made 24 saves in a 6-2 win over Vancouver on Thursday.

Skinner has put up two straight wins for the first time since the beginning of the season. After going 3-0-1 to start the year, Skinner struggled through a 0-4-2 run in the six games prior to these two victories. His overall record is 5-4-3 with a 3.28 GAA and .885 save percentage. Skinner's greatest consistency is his inconsistency.

Aspirot was scratched for the sixth time in eight games in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

Aspirot played in the first three games of the season, but he's played in just three of the next 14. Frederic Brunet has largely occupied the third-pairing spot on the left side of the Bruins' defense, leaving Aspirot in a depth role. With Boston carrying eight blueliners, it's a crowded competition that also includes Connor Clifton, and to a lesser extent, Mason Lohrei. Aspirot has earned eight shots on net, 12 hits and 11 blocked shots over his six games.

Kuraly had two shots on goal, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

This was Kuraly's sixth game out of 17 for the Bruins this year. The 33-year-old center has been a change-of-pace option on the fourth line when the team is healthy, though he's currently filling in for Matthew Poitras. Kuraly doesn't have a point yet, but he's racked up 11 shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-2 rating.

DeMelo picked up two assists Thursday in a 6-2 win over Vancouver.

He also had two shots and two blocked shots. DeMelo has five assists in his last four games (five shots, six hits and five blocks) after putting up just one goal and two assists in his previous 13. De Melo's best offensive season came in 2023-24 in Winnipeg when he managed three goals, 28 assists and 93 shots in 82 games. He has 25 hits and 18 blocks in 17 games, and he's rung up five consecutive triple-digit seasons prior to thus year. That's where DeMelo may have value, not his offense.
