Roslovic scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Roslovic got a turn on the first power-play unit Saturday and cashed in at 17:17 of the second period. That could lead to a significant boost in offense if he's able to hold onto that role, though the eventual return of Zach Hyman (wrist) almost guarantees Roslovic will be back on the second unit soon. Through 11 appearances, Roslovic has two goals, three helpers, 25 shots on net and a plus-6 rating while routinely playing in a top-six role.

Draisaitl scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Draisaitl opened the scoring 54 seconds into the second period with his goal, and he set up Evan Bouchard on the game-winner at 2:43 of overtime. This was Draisaitl's fourth multi-point effort in the last five games, and he's on an eight-game point streak. The 30-year-old is up to nine goals, seven helpers, 38 shots on net and a plus-5 rating across 13 appearances, with eight of his 16 points coming on the power play.

Hischier scored a goal, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

Hischier hadn't scored since Oct. 16 versus the Panthers, though he had six assists over the seven games between goals. The 26-year-old snapped the slump early Saturday, scoring on a Luke Hughes feed at 1:22 of the first period. Hischier is up to three goals, 11 points, 26 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 12 appearances. He's a lock for top-six minutes as the Devils' best two-way forward, and he should continue to produce at a pace just under a point per game, which is on par with his performance from the last three years.

Mercer scored a pair of shorthanded goals, including one into an empty-net, in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.

Mercer has five goals over the last three games, including consecutive two-goal outings. He had both of the Devils' insurance tallies in the third period. Mercer is off to a fantastic start in 2025-26 with eight goals, five helpers, 23 shots on net, 15 blocked shots, 10 hits and a plus-8 rating over 12 contests. While his pace will cool off eventually, he may not be kept under the 40-point mark this year as he has been the last two regular seasons, making him a worthy addition to fantasy rosters in many formats.

Steel notched three assists, two on the power play, in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to Florida.

The 27-year-old center came into the game with just two points, a goal and an assist, through 11 games, but Steel erupted for his first three-point performance since 2018-19, the season in which he made his NHL debut with the Ducks. He's getting a look on the second line and second power-play unit while Matt Duchene (upper body) and Roope Hintz (undisclosed) are unavailable. Steel could have some fantasy appeal in the short term while he fills that role.

Raty posted two assists and five hits in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Wild.

Raty helped out on both of Drew O'Connor's goals in this game. The 22-year-old Raty has earned three helpers over the last two contests while filling a third-line role for the banged-up Canucks. The center is at four assists, six shots on net, 32 hits and a plus-2 rating over 11 appearances in 2025-26. As long as injuries are a significant problem for Vancouver, Raty looks to have a spot in the lineup as a bottom-six forward.

Zegras picked up an assist in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Zegras stretched his point streak to four games and eight points (four goals, four assists). He has 13 shots on the streak. Zegras has responded well to coach Rick Tocchet's approach, and the move to Philly could be the ticket to both maturity and stardom.

Eriksson Ek logged two assists, including one on the power play, and added two shots on net and two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

This was Eriksson Ek's second multi-point effort of the season. He has yet to really get into a groove on offense -- his season-opening three-game point streak is his longest of the year so far. The 28-year-old center is at two goals, seven helpers, 39 shots on net, 27 hits, eight PIM and a minus-7 rating through 13 outings as a regular in the Wild's top six.

Rossi scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and levied three hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.

Rossi has two goals and five assists during his five-game point streak. His tally Saturday put the Wild up 2-1 in the second period, and they maintained a lead the rest of the way. The 24-year-old center is at three goals, nine helpers, 22 shots on net, nine hits, six blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 12 appearances this season. He should continue to provide steady offense as long as he stays on the top line.

Dvorak scored a goal in a 5-2 loss to Toronto on Saturday.

Dvorak got the Flyers on the board fast with a snap shot from the left circle at 1:09 of the first frame. He has four points (two goals, two assists) in his last four games after delivering just one assist in his first seven contests.
