Rodrigues posted an assist, two hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Rodrigues has done alright in November with four goals and four assists over 12 contests, though just two of those points have been in the last eight games. The 31-year-old remains in the top six and on the power play for the Panthers, serving as a complementary forward. He has 11 points, 38 shots on net, 34 hits and a minus-7 rating through 23 appearances.

Frost scored a goal in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

Frost isn't known for his offensive prowess, but the 25-year-old center came through right when the Flyers needed him the most in this game -- his tip-in with 12 seconds left in the third period forced the overtime. As clutch as he was in this win over Nashville, Frost shouldn't carry a lot of fantasy upside in most formats. After all, he's recorded just three goals and nine points in 19 contests this season.

Luostarinen logged an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Luostarinen snapped his nine-game point drought with the helper on Mackie Samoskevich's first-period tally. The 26-year-old Luostarinen has mostly played on the third line since the Panthers weathered some early injury absences in October. The Finn has eight points, 27 shots on net, 46 hits, 17 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 23 contests, but he'll need to prove himself steadier on offense to be an option in more fantasy formats.

Couturier scored the game-winning goal and also delivered an assist in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

Couturier had one of the assists in Morgan Frost's tip-in with 12 seconds left in the third period to force overtime, and the 31-year-old would end up scoring the winning goal with 2:29 left in OT. Couturier has scored in three straight games and seems to be trending in the right direction after a slow start to the campaign. However, he won't have a lot of fantasy upside until he can consistently record points on a steady basis.

Eyssimont scored a goal on four shots and added three hits in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Capitals.

Eyssimont has scored in consecutive games after being limited to just one assist over his first 18 appearances this season. Despite the lack of offense, he's been a fourth-line fixture, and he also saw 54 seconds of power-play time Wednesday. Eyssimont has three points, 40 shots on net, 24 PIM and 21 hits across 20 outings overall.

Strome scored a goal on three shots, added a power-play assist and logged two PIM in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Lightning.

Strome had gone three games without a multi-point effort, and he was quiet until the third period Wednesday. He stepped up with a goal to tie the game at 3-3, then helped out on Tom Wilson's game-winning tally. Strome has earned 10 multi-point efforts in 22 outings this season, racking up seven goals, 24 helpers, 36 shots on net and a plus-18 rating. It took a couple of games for the Capitals' offense to find its way without Alex Ovechkin (fibula), but it looks like Strome can play a leading role on his own for a team that has displayed resilience and confidence so far.

Zary scored a power-play goal on two shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Red Wings.

Zary has a four-game point streak (two goals, two assists), and he's earned a power-play point in each of the last three contests. The 23-year-old seems to be settling into a top-six role at center, though the Flames have shuffled line combinations frequently this season. Zary is at 12 points (five on the power play), 49 shots on net and a minus-4 rating over 23 appearances.

Rasmussen notched a power-play assist, two shots on goal and four hits in Wednesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Flames.

Rasmussen has two points over his last five games, adding three shots on net and 18 hits in that span. The 25-year-old forward saw a season-high 16:51 of ice time Wednesday despite being listed on the fourth line. He was also on the power play regularly for the first time since Oct. 24. The physical winger has six points, 17 shots on net, 48 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 21 outings. His power-play time could dry up when Patrick Kane (upper body) returns to the lineup.

Bedard scored a power-play goal in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Stars.

Bedard bolstered Chicago's lead to 3-0 just 41 seconds into the second period with a snap shot while on the power play. This was Bedard's fourth goal of the campaign, but the 19-year-old center is enduring a rough start to the campaign when compared to the numbers he posted as a rookie. He averaged nearly a point per game in 2023-24, with 61 points across 68 regular-season appearances, but he's been limited to "only"16 points in 22 games thus far in 2024-25. Fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much about that, however, and while Bedard could continue to navigate through some growing as a 19-year-old, he remains one of the game's brightest young players.

Teravainen scored a goal in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Stars.

Teravainen recorded seven points across his first five appearances this season, but he's been struggling in recent weeks and hasn't produced enough to be a valuable fantasy contributor. Even though Teravainen has collected points in three of his last four appearances, he's racked up just four points in his last 17 games while posting a minus-12 rating in that stretch. That lack of production would justify why he's not a popular fantasy alternative in most formats.
