Duchene picked up two assists in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Predators.

The veteran center had a hand in the Stars' first two tallies of the night, including Mason Marchment's game-winner just 39 seconds into the third period. Duchene has gotten onto the scoresheet in nine of the last 10 games, amassing four goals and 11 points over that span, and he sits one goal short of his fourth career 30-goal campaign, and three points shy of reaching 80 for the second time.

MacKinnon scored a goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Blue Jackets.

The 29-year-old superstar opened the scoring early in the first period before helping to set up tallies by Cale Makar and Devon Toews as part of a five-goal surge that put the game away. MacKinnon had a quiet end to March by his standards, delivering three goals and eight points over the final 10 games of the month, but he looks to be gearing back up with the playoffs on the horizon. He's piled up 31 goals and 114 points in 77 appearances this season, putting him three points clear of Nikita Kucherov in the NHL scoring race.

Coyle produced a goal and two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Blue Jackets.

It was Coyle's first multi-point performance in a Colorado jersey, snapping a slump that had seen him manage just two assists in 13 games since joining the team. On the season, the 33-year-old has 16 goals and 27 points in 78 appearances between the Avs and Bruins, putting him on track to finish below 40 points over a full campaign for the first time since 2019-20.

Evans logged a pair of assists, two shots on goal, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Bruins.

Evans has two multi-assist games over his last nine contests, but he went scoreless in the other seven outings. He hasn't tickled the twine since March 1 versus the Sabres. The 28-year-old remains in a fourth-line role, and while he's had success there at times this season, he's not meant to be a reliable scorer in fantasy with that kind of usage. Evans is at 12 goals, a career-high 33 points, 73 shots on net, 107 hits, 56 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 75 appearances.

Dvorak scored a goal in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Bruins.

Dvorak's strong run continued with the opening goal 40 seconds into the second period of this contest. Since March 15, he has five goals and five assists over 10 games. The 29-year-old is up to the 30-point mark for the sixth time in his career and the first since 2021-22. He has 11 goals, 19 assists, 99 shots on net, 67 blocked shots, 40 hits and a minus-6 rating over 75 appearances.

Wennberg managed an assist and three blocked shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers.

Wennberg has two goals and an assist over his last five contests. The 30-year-old center set up a Jack Thompson tally in the first period of this game. Wennberg is up to 10 goals, 24 assists, 74 shots on net, 71 blocked shots, 30 hits and a minus-16 rating over 70 appearances in a middle-six role this season.

Celebrini notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers.

Celebrini ended a three-game dry spell on offense when he assisted on Tyler Toffoli's second-period tally. The goal drought is up to seven games for Celebrini, but he remains firmly in a top-six role. He has four assists in that span, so it's not like he's hit a wall late in the season. The rookie center is at 21 goals, 33 helpers, 214 shots on net, 51 blocked shots, 32 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-31 rating over 63 outings.

Janmark notched an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.

Janmark ended a 13-game point drought with his assist on a Jeff Skinner tally in the second period. The 32-year-old Janmark continues to see steady usage in a middle-six role, but it's mostly for his defensive skills, not his scoring. He's at 18 points, 47 shots on net, 38 hits, 33 blocked shots, 18 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 73 contests this season.

Brown scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.

Brown snapped an 11-game goal drought with the opening tally in this contest. Over that span, he was limited to two assists and 17 shots on net. The 31-year-old winger has mainly played in a middle-six role with minimal power-play usage, so a lack of offense shouldn't come as a surprise. He's up to nine goals, 26 points, 104 shots, 35 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 75 appearances this season. Brown is one of four Oilers to have played in every game so far, along with Evan Bouchard, Vasily Podkolzin and Brett Kulak.

Appleton notched an assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights.

Appleton has two goals and an assist over his last five contests. The 29-year-old has seen an uptick in playing time recently as the Jets manage without Gabriel Vilardi (upper body). Most of Appleton's gains have come with his spot on the second power-play unit, though he hasn't produced a point there. He's at 10 goals, 12 helpers, 99 shots on net, 65 hits and a plus-10 rating over 65 appearances this season.
