Eichel notched an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 5-3 win over the Blackhawks.

Eichel has five goals and six assists during his five-game point streak, which he extended on a Mark Stone tally in Friday's contest. The 28-year-old Eichel continues to build on his career year and the best individual season in Vegas franchise history. He's at 26 goals, 65 helpers, 217 shots on net, 50 blocked shots and a plus-33 rating through 71 appearances.

Karlsson logged three assists and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 5-3 win over the Blackhawks.

One of Karlsson's helpers came on the power play. He's earned six assists, including three with the man advantage, over five games since returning from a lower-body injury, though he hasn't scored in that stretch. Overall, the center has seven goals, 17 helpers (five on the power play), 97 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating through 43 appearances.

Howden scored an empty-net goal in Friday's 5-3 win over the Blackhawks.

Howden has four goals and an assist over his last seven contests. The 26-year-old has slipped to the fourth line, but he's still finding ways to produce, and the Golden Knights' deep offense continues to benefit him. For the season, he's at 21 goals, 35 points, 113 shots on net, 106 hits, 50 blocked shots and a plus-13 rating over 70 appearances.

Dorofeyev scored a power-play goal in Friday's 5-3 win over the Blackhawks.

Dorofeyev has seven goals and two assists over his last 10 outings, with three of those tallies coming on the power play. The 24-year-old winger is up to 31 goals, 47 points, 218 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through 72 contests overall. He's been a breakout player this season, good for about two points every three games while playing on the second line.

Barron logged an assist and three hits in Friday's 4-0 win over the Devils.

Barron has been steady on the fourth line lately with a goal and three assists over his last seven outings. He helped out on a David Gustafsson tally in the first period, which gave the Jets a 2-0 lead. Barron is currently centering the line, a change from earlier in the year when Gustafsson played down the middle with Barron on the wing. Overall, Barron has 12 points, 76 shots on net, 104 hits and a plus-7 rating across 65 appearances.

Gustafsson scored a goal in Friday's 4-0 win over the Devils.

Gustafsson's point drought was only six games, but he had been scratched 11 times in that span. The 24-year-old drew back into the lineup since Rasmus Kupari (concussion) is experiencing symptoms from an earlier injury. Gustafsson will likely remain on the fourth line until the Jets get Kupari or Gabriel Vilardi (upper body) back. For the season, Gustafsson has two goals, six points, a plus-10 rating, 27 shots on net, 18 hits and 18 blocked shots over 30 appearances.

Scheifele scored a goal, dished an assist, added two hits and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-0 win over the Devils.

Scheifele's point streak is up to four games, and he snapped a nine-game stretch without a goal when he scored late in the second period. The center still racked up seven assists during the goal drought. He's reached the 80-point mark for the third time in his career, posting 36 goals, 44 helpers, 152 shots on net, 68 hits, 51 blocked shots, 57 PIM and a plus-12 rating through 73 appearances. He's four points from matching his career-best 84 from the 2018-19 campaign.

Contrary to a previous report, Blueger (illness) is projected to play Friday versus the Blue Jackets, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

Blueger was not initially expected to play, but it looks like he checked out fine in warmups. He'll likely center the second line again, but he may be on reduced minutes if his illness bothers him during the contest.

Blueger (illness) won't play Friday versus the Blue Jackets, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Blueger was questionable to play earlier in the day, and it looks like he'll have to sit out a game. Max Sasson is projected to enter the lineup for the Canucks, who are now down three of their top four centers as Blueger joins Elias Pettersson (undisclosed) and Filip Chytil (concussion) on the shelf.

Johnston scored a goal on four shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

Johnston has lit the lamp in three straight games and has a total of 10 goals and three assists over 13 contests in March. The 21-year-old center also matched his career high of 65 points with his tally Thursday, and he's got 10 games to set a new personal best. He's at 28 goals, 37 assists, 186 shots on net and a plus-6 rating over 72 appearances in 2024-25 as he continues to be reliable anywhere in the lineup.
