Savoie recorded a power-play assist in Monday's 3-1 win over Winnipeg.

Savoie chipped in on a power-play goal scored by Jack Roslovic in the second period. His apple Monday brought his season totals up to six assists, 13 points and 52 shots on net through 40 games this season. His first full year at the NHL level has been solid, but he has made particularly notable strides over the last month with eight points in his last 17 games. The No. 9 overall selection from the 2022 NHL Entry Draft holds decent fantasy value in deep leagues while playing Leon Draisaitl's line at even strength. Savoie also has maintained a steady spot on the second power-play unit, and has three power-play points to show for it.

Roslovic scored a power-play goal on three shots in Monday's 3-1 win over the Jets.

Roslovic netted the go-ahead tally during a second-period power play to give the Oilers a 2-0 lead. He is up to 11 goals, 19 points and 62 shots on net across 27 outings this season. The goal was his first point in four games since his return from a long-term undisclosed injury that cost him 11 contests. Dating back to Nov. 1, he has 10 goals in his last 17 games and has been one of the strongest secondary scoring options for the Oilers this year. Roslovic is back on track to finish the season near or above his career high of 22 goals, making him a solid option in standard fantasy formats and a high-priority add in deep leagues.

Del Bel Belluz notched three assists in AHL Cleveland's 4-3 overtime loss to Rochester on Monday.

Del Bel Belluz was with the Blue Jackets prior to the holiday break, and he's earned four points over two games since getting sent back down. For the season, he's now at 17 points over 16 appearances with the AHL club. The 22-year-old should continue to be in the mix for call-ups moving forward.

Marchessault (lower body) will remain sidelined for Monday's road game against the Mammoth, according to Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site.

Marchessault will miss his fifth straight game Monday. It's unclear if he's close to returning to the lineup, but his next opportunity to suit up will be in Vegas on Wednesday.

Monahan (undisclosed) is a late scratch for Monday's game in Ottawa due to maintenance.

According to Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers, Monahan's absence is injury related. The veteran forward has been banged up throughout the season, and he'll now miss his first game in the second half of a back-to-back. The Blue Jackets' next game is at home Wednesday versus the Devils.

Carrick (illness) is expected to play Monday in Carolina, per Colin Stephenson of Newsday.

Carrick didn't end up missing a game due to the illness. He has a goal, six points, 28 PIM and 55 hits in 40 appearances in 2025-26. Carrick is projected to skate on the fourth line alongside Jonny Brodzinski and Matt Rempe.

Lundestrom (lower body) won't play against Ottawa on Monday, according to Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site.

Lundestrom will miss his second straight game, and a timeline for his return remains unclear. He has collected one goal, four assists, 30 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and 13 hits across 35 appearances this season. Due to Lundestrom's absence, Brendan Gaunce has been centering the fourth line.

Toninato was assigned to AHL Rockford on Monday.

Toninato has one assist, six shots on goal and 10 hits in five NHL appearances this season. He also has five goals and 17 points over 24 AHL outings during the 2025-26 campaign.

Columbus acquired Heinen, a 2026 second-round pick (St. Louis) and a 2027 third-round draft pick (Washington) from Pittsburgh on Monday in exchange for Yegor Chinakhov.

Heinen will report to AHL Cleveland after passing through waivers Monday. He has contributed one goal, two points, 14 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and 16 hits across 13 NHL appearances this season.

Goncalves notched two assists, three shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over the Canadiens.

Goncalves' offense has come around with four points over his last four games. He was a healthy scratch for four games in a row in the middle of December, but he's now seeing some top-six usage on paper, though his overall ice time is still in line with that of a bottom-six forward. He's at 11 points, 26 shots on net, 35 hits, 23 PIM, 17 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating across 34 appearances.
