  • Oilers' Jack Roslovic: Tallies twice in win

    Roslovic scored a pair of goals on four shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Mammoth.

    Roslovic got the Oilers on the board in the first period and put them up 4-2 in the second with his second tally. The 29-year-old had been limited to three points over his first 10 games in March before this breakout performance. He's now at 19 goals, 31 points, 123 shots on net, 32 hits and a minus-8 rating over 59 appearances. Roslovic matched his career high with 22 goals in 81 regular-season outings for the Hurricanes last year, and he could push to match that number if he finishes strong in 2025-26.

  • Oilers' Connor McDavid: Hits two milestones in win

    McDavid scored twice on four shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Mammoth.

    McDavid's first goal was the 400th of his career, and his second, the empty-netter to seal the win, was his 1,200th regular-season point. This was just his 784th regular-season contest, making him the third-fastest player to reach 1,200 points behind Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux. March has been good to McDavid, who has five goals and 10 helpers over 11 contests this month. He's at 40 tallies -- a mark he's reached in five of his 11 seasons -- with 78 assists, 261 shots on net, 36 hits, 34 PIM and a plus-10 rating through 72 appearances.

  • Avalanche's Nathan MacKinnon: League goal leader scores again

    MacKinnon scored a goal Tuesday in a 6-2 win over the Penguins.

    It was his league-leading 46th goal of the season. It was MacKinnon's 300th career even-strength goal, which is the second-most in Avalanche/Quebec Nordiques franchise history behind Joe Sakic (388). The goal gets MacKinnon back on the scoresheet after his five-game, 10-point scoring streak was snapped Sunday.

    Avalanche's Martin Necas: Three-game, seven-point streak

    Necas scored twice in a 6-2 win over Pittsburgh on Tuesday.

    His first goal stood as the winner; it came on the power play. Necas has seven points (three goals, four assists) and nine shots on his current three-game point streak. He continues to blast toward his first triple-digit point season. Necas has already obliterated his previous best (71 points) with 88 (34 goals, 54 assists) in 67 games. He sits sixth in the NHL in scoring, ahead of David Pastrnak (87).

  • Kings' Quinton Byfield: Scores twice in shootout loss

    Byfield scored two goals on three shots in Tuesday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Flames.

    Byfield logged his third multi-point effort in the last five games with this performance. He has four goals and three assists in that span. Late surges aren't unusual for Byfield -- he picked up 12 goals and 20 points after the start of March in the 2024-25 regular season. This year's push has started a little later, but it makes the 23-year-old an interesting option for fantasy managers in need of a boost. He's now at 17 goals, 40 points, 148 shots on net, 53 hits, 37 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 68 appearances this season.

  • Golden Knights' Colton Sissons: Strikes on power play in loss

    Sissons scored a power-play goal and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Jets.

    Sissons scored midway through the second period, but he was the only Vegas player to solve Connor Hellebuyck in this contest. The power-play usage is fairly new for Sissons, who has been on and off the second unit all season but has two points with the man advantage over his last two games. For the season, the 32-year-old is at six goals, 11 points, 65 shots on net, 83 hits, 39 blocked shots and 19 PIM over 56 appearances. His bottom-six role at even strength is likely to keep his offense limited.

  • Jets' Cole Perfetti: Nets 10th goal

    Perfetti scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.

    Perfetti had been limited to two assists over his previous five games. The tally was his 10th of the season, but eight of them have come over his last 31 contests, showing an improvement after his slow start to the campaign. He's earned 28 points, 120 shots on net, 44 hits and a minus-5 rating through 57 appearances, mainly in a second-line role.

  • Jets' Mark Scheifele: Gets Gordie Howe hat trick Tuesday

    Scheifele scored an empty-net goal on three shots, dished two assists, added five PIM and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.

    Scheifele had a Gordie Howe hat trick in this contest. He assisted on the Jets' first two goals, and he fought Brett Howden late in the second period after Howden's hit on Kyle Connor. Scheifele completed his effort with the empty-netter. The center snapped a three-game skid and earned his fifth multi-point effort of March in the process. He's up to 32 goals, 54 assists, 153 shots on net, 39 blocked shots, 29 hits, 31 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 71 appearances. Scheifele is now one point shy of matching his career-high total of 87 from the 2024-25 regular season.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Nets 300th NHL goal

    Guentzel scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-3 win over the Wild on Tuesday.

    The goal was Guentzel's 300th in the NHL, and it was in the dirty area of the ice -- he was on his knees below the right circle, and he hammered in his own rebound. Guentzel has 74 points, including 32 goals, in 70 games this season and 645 points in 670 games in his career. He remains on pace to set a new career mark in points; his current mark is 84 points (40 goals, 44 assists) with Pittsburgh in 2021-22.

  • Lightning's Brayden Point: Rip-and-tear since early December

    Point scored a goal Tuesday in a 6-3 win over the Wild.

    Point got Tampa's first goal on the power play early in the second period. It was his first goal in eight games (five assists). However, he's been streaking since early December. Point has points in 24 of his last 31 games (35 points, including 14 goals).
