  • David Kampf C | BUF

    Maple Leafs' David Kampf: Adds helper in win

    Kampf logged an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Kampf has more points since the 4 Nations Face-Off break (two in two games) than he had across the first 17 contests in 2025 (one goal). Any uptick in offense is unlikely to last in the long run since Kampf is more of a defensive center. He's now at nine points, 38 shots on net, 37 hits and a minus-1 rating through 44 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Maple Leafs' Steven Lorentz: Picks up helper

    Lorentz recorded an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Lorentz has three helpers over his last five outings. The 28-year-old is making a decent impact in a fourth-line role, but he won't have an easy time sustaining offense from that spot in the lineup. He's contributed 14 points -- his second-most in any of his five seasons -- as well as 49 shots on net, 139 hits, 40 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 57 appearances in 2024-25.

  • Bobby McMann C | SEA

    Maple Leafs' Bobby McMann: Helps out on power play

    McMann notched a power-play assist in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    McMann had gone eight games without a helper before assisting on a Nicholas Robertson tally in the second period. The 28-year-old McMann had a strong stretch as a top-line fill-in during January, but offense will be harder to sustain in his current third-line role. Overall, he's contributed a career-high 26 points (six on the power play), 122 shots on net, 78 hits and a plus-6 rating over 49 appearances.

  • John Tavares C | TOR

    Maple Leafs' John Tavares: Bags apple Sunday

    Tavares notched an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Tavares has two goals and four assists, along with a plus-6 rating, across his last six outings. The 34-year-old had a hand in Pontus Holmberg's empty-netter in this contest. Tavares is up to 48 points, 136 shots on net, 61 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 50 appearances. He's not at his peak level of production but should be capable of getting to the 60-point mark once again.

  • Maple Leafs' Auston Matthews: Generates assist Sunday

    Matthews registered an assist and four shots on goal in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Matthews' point streak is up to six games, during which he's racked up a goal and eight assists. He had a helper on Jake McCabe's second-period go-ahead goal in this contests. The lack of goals is unusual for Matthews, but it's good to see him remain productive while potentially showcasing a bit more playmaking. The 27-year-old is in his ninth campaign and has 21 goals, 26 assists, 167 shots on net, 55 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 42 appearances. This would be just the second time in his career he ends up with more assists than goals in a season if he doesn't start lighting the lamp at a higher pace.

  • Max Domi C | TOR

    Maple Leafs' Max Domi: Supplies two assists in win

    Domi notched two assists and two shots on goal in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

    Domi set up both of Nicholas Robertson's goals, including one on the power play. The goal drought marches on for Domi -- he's gone 24 games without scoring, adding 11 assists, 34 shots on net and a minus-4 rating in that span. For the season, he's recorded just three goals, 19 helpers, 68 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 49 appearances while often serving in a middle-six role.

  • Andrew Copp C | DET

    Red Wings' Andrew Copp: Ruled out for Tuesday's game

    Copp (undisclosed) will not be available for Tuesday's road matchup against the Wild, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports Sunday.

    Copp missed his first game of the season Sunday versus the Ducks -- he was injured in Saturday's home loss to Minnesota. The 30-year-old was replaced by Tyler Motte in the lineup Sunday. Copp's next opportunity to suit up will be against the Blue Jackets on Thursday.

  • Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen: Dealing with upper-body injury

    Rasmussen is being evaluated for an upper-body injury following Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Ducks, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Rasmussen took a hit to the head from Trevor Zegras late in the second period Sunday and went to the locker room immediately afterward. Rasmussen didn't return to the game, and head coach Todd McLellan said after the matchup that the 25-year-old is still being evaluated. It's not yet clear whether Rasmussen will be available against the Wild on Tuesday, but if he's forced to sit out, Christian Fischer could enter the lineup since Andrew Copp (undisclosed) won't suit up against Minnesota.

  • J.T. Miller C | NYR

    Rangers' J.T. Miller: Nets 250th career NHL goal Sunday

    Miller scored a pair of goals on two shots and doled out five hits in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Penguins.

    Miller's first tally at 17:00 of the second period was the 250th of his 13-season career. The 31-year-old added an empty-netter with seven seconds remaining in the contest. Miller now has four points in back-to-back games after participating in the 4 Nations Face-Off tournament for Team USA. The left-shot center was held off the scoresheet in three consecutive outings prior to the break, but he's up to eight points (four goals) through seven games with the Rangers since being acquired in a trade from the Canucks on Jan. 31. On the season, Miller has accounted for 13 goals and 30 points through 47 appearances.

  • Dylan Strome C | WAS

    Capitals' Dylan Strome: Stretches streak to eight

    Strome tallied a goal, two assists, a plus-3 rating and three shots during Sunday's 7-3 win over the Oilers.

    Strome has bagged a whopping six goals and 12 points in his last 10 appearances and is on his longest point streak of the season at eight games. The 27-year-old continues to pace the league-leading Capitals with 58 points in 57 games and is an automatic start in any format the rest of the way.
