Hughes notched an assist, four shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 3-1 win over Utah.

Hughes has earned four goals, three assists and a plus-5 rating during his five-game point streak. He set up a Curtis Lazar tally in the third period to keep the streak alive. Hughes reached the 70-point mark this season -- he has 27 goals and 43 assists, and he's earned 27 of his points on the power play. The center has rounded out his stat line with 226 shots on net and a plus-12 rating over 61 appearances, putting him just a little behind his pace from last season (74 points in 62 outings).

Hischier scored a goal on two shots, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-1 win over Utah.

The goal was Hischier's 400th career point, a milestone he reached in his 507th game. The center has a goal and three assists over four contests since returning from a six-game absence due to an upper-body injury. Overall, he's collected 25 goals, 47 points, 147 shots on net, 51 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating through 55 appearances this season in a top-six role.

Kopitar recorded a power-play assist, three shots on goal and two hits in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Blues.

Kopitar had been held off the scoresheet in the previous three games, and he's gone six contests without a goal. The 37-year-old's offense was strong and steady early on, but he still doesn't have a multi-point effort this calendar year. Kopitar is now at 47 points (15 on the power play), 75 shots and a plus-6 rating across 58 outings.

Amadio scored a goal Saturday in a 5-3 victory over the Sharks.

He sealed Ottawa's victory with an empty-netter. Amadio has four goals on 12 shots in his last eight games. He has chipped in six goals and nine assists across 49 appearances this campaign. Amadio is coming off back-to-back 27-point regular seasons in Vegas but will be hard-pressed to deliver that mark this time. Amadio has stepped up his hit game, establishing a new career high with 70.

Schenn notched an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

Schenn has a goal and four assists during his four-game point streak. The 33-year-old center is also plus-8 in that span as he continues to play a well-rounded game from the second line. For the season, he's up to 37 points, 106 shots on net, 151 hits, 48 PIM and a minus-1 rating across 61 appearances. Fantasy managers know what to expect from Schenn -- a little offense, physical play and a safe floor that makes him a fine depth forward on virtual rosters.

Kyrou managed an assist, seven shots on goal, six hits, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

Kyrou is not one to throw the body around much, so this was an unusual performance, though fantasy managers won't complain. He's earned four points over his last four games as well, though consistency has been a problem over longer stretches. The winger is up to 24 goals, 24 helpers, 173 shots on net, 37 hits, 14 PIM and a plus-13 rating through 61 appearances this season.

Thomas logged an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

Thomas' point streak is up to nine games -- he has four goals and nine helpers since the start of February. The 25-year-old center has earned just three of those points on the power play, but he's playing a key role while working to his strength as a playmaker, though he's added 22 shots on net in that span. For the season, Thomas is up to 16 goals, 33 helpers, 113 shots on net, 39 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 49 appearances in a top-line role.

Bolduc scored a goal, added three hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

Bolduc has four goals and two assists over his last seven outings. He's doing enough to help his case to stay in the lineup, though he remains in a third-line role at even strength. The 22-year-old forward is up to nine goals, 21 points, 70 shots on net, 70 hits, 25 blocked shots and a plus-13 rating across 51 appearances. Bolduc's physicality gives him a little appeal in deeper fantasy formats.

Holloway scored a goal on five shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

Holloway earned his first multi-point effort since Jan. 16 versus the Flames. He didn't play poorly between multi-point outings, earning a point in nine of the previous 14 contests (three goals, six assists). The 23-year-old is up to 19 goals, 45 points, 141 shots on net, 133 hits and a plus-13 rating through 61 appearances. He continues to thrive in a top-six role, especially with the Blues coming out of the 4 Nations Face-Off break on a roll.

Bennett notched two assists, five shots on goal, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Flames.

Bennett was a menace against his former team, helping out on goals by linemates Evan Rodrigues and Mackie Samoskevich. This was Bennett's third multi-point effort in his last seven outings, a span in which he has three goals and five assists. He started the year hot, then struggled for much of December and January, but a stint with Team Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off seems to have reignited his performance. He's at 39 points, 193 shots on net, 124 hits, 69 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 59 appearances. Bennett is a solid source of depth scoring and carries extra appeal in fantasy formats where his heavy playing style is rewarded.
