  • Bobby McMann C | TOR

    Maple Leafs' Bobby McMann: Back from suspension

    McMann served his one-game suspension Thursday and will return to the lineup Saturday against Edmonton.

    McMann missed the contest against San Jose for high-sticking Oliver Bjorkstrand of the Lightning on Monday. McMann has eight goals, six assists and 67 hits over 29 games this season. Look for Nicolas Robertson as the likely candidate to come out of the lineup with the return of McMann.

  • Tim Stutzle LW | OTT

    Senators' Tim Stutzle: Lights lamp twice in win

    Stutzle scored two goals, one on the power play, in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jackets.

    The 23-year-old center chased Elvis Merzlikins from the game with his first tally late in the first period, before Stutzle tapped a rebound past Jet Greaves late in the second. It was his fourth multi-goal performance of the season and second straight game with a power-play tally, and through 30 contests Stutzle has delivered 14 goals and 28 points, including four goals and 10 points with the man advantage.

  • Juuse Saros G | NSH

    Predators' Juuse Saros: Earns win over Blues

    Saros stopped 24 of 26 shots in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Blues.

    Saros had a solid showing between the pipes Thursday, but it's not like he needed to be at his best since the Preds supported him with seven goals, including four from Steven Stamkos. Saros has been playing well lately and has won five of his last six starts, going 5-1-0 with a 2.70 GAA and a .917 save percentage over that span.

  • Dylan Cozens C | OTT

    Senators' Dylan Cozens: Three helpers in Thursday's win

    Cozens pocketed three assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 6-3 win over Columbus.

    The 24-year-old center helped set up tallies by David Perron, Drake Batherson and Tim Stutzle as the Senators raced out to a 3-0 lead before the first period was over. Cozens has five assists in the last two games, and through 30 contests on the season he's produced nine goals, 22 points, 87 hits, 65 shots on net, 22 PIM and a minus-12 rating, with 13 of his points (five goals, eight helpers) coming on the power play.

  • Blues' Jordan Binnington: Allows six goals

    Binnington stopped 19 of 25 shots in Thursday's 7-2 loss to the Predators.

    Binnington gave up a season-worst six goals and also notched his third-worst save percentage in a single game. He's been struggling of late and has posted a save percentage below the .900 mark in each of his last six starts. He owns a 4.51 GAA and an .843 save percentage, as well as a 2-3-1 record, over that stretch.

  • Wild's Filip Gustavsson: Earns win over Dallas

    Gustavsson stopped 16 of 18 shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Stars.

    Gustavsson made back-to-back starts for the first time since a five-start stretch between Oct. 28 and Nov. 6. He's been sharing the workload between the pipes with Jesper Wallstedt, but Gustavsson's play of late suggests he might be able to recover his No. 1 role in the near future. He has won five of his last seven outings, posting a 1.82 GAA and a .930 save percentage over that span.

  • Senators' Drake Batherson: Stays hot in Columbus

    Batherson scored a goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jackets.

    It was his third multi-point effort in the last four games, as Batherson had a hand in Ottawa's first three goals of the night. The 27-year-old winger has found the back of the net seven times in the last 11 games, racking up 11 points over that stretch -- including five (three goals, two assists) on the power play.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Beaten three times Thursday

    Oettinger stopped 27 of 30 shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Wild. The other two goals were empty-netters.

    Oettinger saw his run of six straight wins come to an end Thursday, but at least he extended his run of allowing three or fewer goals for a 10th consecutive outing. Over that stretch, the star netminder owns an 8-2-0 record with elite stats, such as a 1.99 GAA and a .926 save percentage.

  • Senators' Michael Amadio: Three points in Thursday's win

    Amadio scored the game-winning goal on three shots on net and added two assists, three hits, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 6-3 victory over the Blue Jackets.

    His tally in the final minute of the first period gave the Senators a 4-1 lead. It was Amadio's first multi-point performance, and first GWG, of the season, and through 30 games he's collected seven goals, 14 points, 46 hits, 43 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating.

  • Senators' Linus Ullmark: Cruises to 11th win

    Ullmark made 23 saves in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jackets.

    The Senators scored four times before the end of the first period, giving Ullmark plenty of cushion en route to his 11th win of the season. The veteran netminder has allowed three goals or fewer in 10 of his last 12 starts, posting a 2.72 GAA and 891 save percentage over that stretch while going 6-4-2.
