    Flames' Morgan Frost: Pockets power-play helper

    Frost notched a power-play assist and two PIM in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.

    Frost is up to three points over six games since he was traded to the Flames. This was his first power-play point with his new team, though he is seeing time on the first unit, which has been pretty productive lately. Frost now has 28 points, 99 shots on net, 41 hits, 40 blocked shots, 22 PIM and a minus-13 rating over 55 appearances. His third-line role at even strength doesn't bode well for consistent offense outside of power-play situations.

  • Flames' Jonathan Huberdeau: Nabs helper in win

    Huberdeau logged an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.

    Huberdeau had to wait two weeks to extend his point streak to five games, but he did it, setting up Joel Hanley's game-winning goal in the third period. During the streak, Huberdeau has two goals and four assists. He's up to 42 points, 105 shots on net, 46 blocked shots, 35 hits and a minus-7 rating over 56 appearances this season while seeing steady top-line time.

  • Kevin Rooney C | UTA

    Flames' Kevin Rooney: Cashes in for goal

    Rooney scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.

    Rooney buried a goal from close range at 3:35 of the second period, giving the Flames their first lead of the contest. It was his first point in over two months -- he last got on the scoresheet Dec. 10 versus the Predators with a two-point game. Rooney has surpassed his 2023-24 production, earning four goals, one assist, 34 shots on net, 72 hits, 26 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 45 appearances this season. However, if the Flames upgrade their roster at the trade deadline, he could find himself out of the lineup or off the NHL roster altogether.

  • Nazem Kadri C | COL

    Flames' Nazem Kadri: Back at 20-goal mark

    Kadri scored a power-play goal on six shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.

    Kadri reached the 20-goal mark for the fourth year in a row when he scored in the first period. He also had a hand in Joel Hanley's third-period game-winner. Kadri has three goals and five assists during his six-game point streak spanning all of February. The 34-year-old center is up to 42 points (15 on the power play), 189 shots on net, 38 hits, 57 PIM and a minus-15 rating through 56 appearances. He could push for a 30-goal, 60-point campaign if he stays healthy.

  • Penguins' Sidney Crosby: Captain consistency

    Crosby compiled an assist, five shots on goal, one blocked shot, one hit, one takeaway and a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Rangers.

    Crosby registered the primary helper on Ryan Shea's second goal of the game at 3:31 of the third period. Crosby's point streak is up to seven games -- he has five goals and four assists in that span. After bringing home more hardware at the 4 Nations Face-Off with Team Canada, Crosby is doing everything he can on offense to will his team to the postseason, but Pittsburgh's defense and goaltending situation has been less than ideal. The all-world center is spearheading the Penguins in scoring with 60 points (18 goals, 42 assists) through 57 outings in 2024-25. The closest Penguin to Crosby in terms of offensive production, Rickard Rakell, has 49 points in 58 games, which highlights just how much the former is being relied on at 37 years old.

  • Islanders' Marc Gatcomb: Logs helper

    Gatcomb notched an assist and six hits in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

    This was Gatcomb's first assist of the season and his fourth point over seven contests. The 25-year-old has settled into a fourth-line role since making his NHL debut Jan. 14 against the Senators. In addition to his four points, he has 13 shots on net, 54 hits, nine PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 13 appearances. That level of production may help in extremely deep fantasy formats, but Gatcomb is far away from having widespread appeal.

  • Kyle MacLean C | NYI

    Islanders' Kyle MacLean: Registers assist in loss

    MacLean provided an assist in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

    MacLean snapped a three-game point drought. He's actually improved recently with three points over his last seven outings, but it'll be tough for him to keep it up while he's firmly on the fourth line. The 25-year-old center is up to eight points, 41 shots on net, 73 hits and a minus-10 rating through 56 appearances this season.

  • Brock Nelson C | COL

    Islanders' Brock Nelson: Picks up helper

    Nelson logged an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

    Nelson has four points and 16 shots on net over his last four contests. The 33-year-old has been excellent in a second-line role this season, giving the Islanders some stability on offense. He's up to 36 points, 150 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 56 appearances. That production doesn't play in all fantasy formats, especially with a lack of physicality, but Nelson's consistency can add some appeal.

  • Bo Horvat C | NYI

    Islanders' Bo Horvat: Garners helper in loss

    Horvat notched an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

    Horvat has earned three points over his last six outings. The 29-year-old center hasn't picked up a multi-point effort since Jan. 20 versus the Blue Jackets, but he remains in a top-line role as a key part of the Islanders' offense. For the season, he's at 41 points, 161 shots on net, 73 hits and a plus-10 rating over 55 appearances. He'll need a big push to close out the season to get to the 60-point mark for the third season in a row.

  • Islanders' Kyle Palmieri: Lights lamp in loss

    Palmieri scored a goal on five shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

    Palmieri's tally tied the game at 2-2 in the second period. The winger has five goals and an assist over his last seven outings while filling a second-line role. For the season, he's been pretty steady with 17 goals, 38 points, 105 shots, 36 hits and a minus-5 rating across 56 appearances. A return to last year's 30-goal performance is unlikely, but he could reach the 50-point mark for the second year in a row and the fifth time in his career.
