Beniers scored a goal and added an assist Saturday in a 6-3 loss to Utah.

Beniers has 10 goals and 21 assists in 47 games this season, but he has warmed up offensively. He ended a mini two-game point slump with his multi-point effort in Saturday's loss. Beniers has racked up six goals, seven assists and 29 shots on net over his last 14 outings.

Nugent-Hopkins logged two assists and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.

Nugent-Hopkins set up both of Kasperi Kapanen's tallies in the contest. The goal drought is up to 11 games for Nugent-Hopkins, but he still has eight helpers and 18 shots on net in that span. The playmaking forward is at 39 points (11 goals, 28 assists), 68 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through 40 appearances this season. He'll likely center the second line for the duration of Leon Draisaitl's (personal) absence.

Hyman scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.

Hyman has four goals and an assist over the last four contests. The winger remains a consistent source of goals and shots while playing on the Oilers' top line. He's up to 17 tallies, 28 points (11 on the power play), 90 shots on net, 32 hits and a plus-7 rating across 30 appearances this season.

Roslovic scored twice on four shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.

Roslovic ignited a six-goal second period at 3:11 of the frame, then added another goal at 14:31. Prior to Saturday, he was in a seven-game point drought. Roslovic has mostly played on the third line recently, though he should pick up a little more power-play time while Leon Draisaitl (personal) is away from the team. Roslovic is at 14 goals, 22 points, 80 shots on net and a minus-4 rating over 36 appearances. He has some upside on a strong team, but if he's not playing with a superstar, the 28-year-old's offense could run streaky.

Greene scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Bruins.

Greene has two goals over his last four contests. The 22-year-old opened the scoring Saturday, but the Bruins dominated the last two periods. Greene is up to six goals, 18 points, 64 shots on net, 29 hits, 22 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 48 appearances. He's worth a look in deeper fantasy formats as long as he keeps skating alongside Connor Bedard on the top line.

Mittelstadt notched two assists in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Mittelstadt earned his first multi-point effort since Nov. 1 versus the Hurricanes. The 27-year-old continues to hold a second-line role, and he has two goals and six helpers over his last nine outings. He's up to 23 points, 47 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 39 appearances this season.

Zacha posted two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Zacha continues to surge in January. He has four goals and five assists over eight contests this month. The 28-year-old center is up to 35 points (14 goals, 21 helpers), 75 shots on net, 40 hits, 24 PIM, 19 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 48 appearances. Zacha should continue to have plenty of scoring upside in a second-line role. He's on pace to push for the first 60-point campaign of his career.

Lindholm registered two assists, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Lindholm had gone three games without a point after sustaining a lower-body injury in a Jan. 10 blowout win over the Rangers. The 31-year-old didn't miss a contest, but his offense has slipped since then. He's up to 32 points (eight goals, 24 helpers), 61 shots on net, 36 blocked shots, 29 hits, 32 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 39 outings in a top-line role.

Khusnutdinov scored a goal in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Khusnutdinov has scored in consecutive contests and is up to six goals and three assists over eight outings in January. The 23-year-old continues to see his even-strength minutes on the top line, which has certainly helped him achieve more scoring success. He's at 11 goals, 22 points, 47 shots on net, 22 hits, 21 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 44 games this season.

Gard scored two goals in WHL Seattle's 5-3 win over Portland on Saturday.

Gard was traded to Seattle from Red Deer on Jan. 2. He's clicked with his new team, picking up three goals and two assists over five games with the Thunderbirds after posting just 10 points in 23 outings with the Rebels. The Flyers prospect appears to have just needed a change of scenery to unlock his offense.
