Uchacz registered three assists in AHL Henderson's 8-3 win over Calgary on Thursday.

Uchacz has four goals and six helpers during his six-game point streak. He crossed the 40-point mark with this effort, which has him at 13 goals and 28 helpers through 56 appearances this season. Uchacz also got into three NHL games this season, but he has yet to earn his first point for the Golden Knights.

Holtz scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Henderson's 8-3 win over Calgary on Thursday.

Holtz has a pair of three-point efforts over his seven games in the AHL this season. His goal was his first for Henderson since he was sent down in early March. If he does well, he could work his way back to the Golden Knights as a depth forward for the playoffs.

Zibanejad scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in a 6-3 loss to the Blue Jackets. The assist came on the power play.

Zibanejad is on a three-game, four-point scoring streak that includes two goals and two assists. He has 13 points (five goals, eight assists) in his last eight games; one goal and five assists have come with the man advantage. Zibanejad has been a true bright light on Broadway this season despite the team's miserable spot in last place in the Eastern Conference. He has 29 goals, 37 assists, 29 power-play points and 179 shots in 68 games this season. He's flirting with a potential 80-point season if he can keep firing. If he can pull it off, it would be Zibanejad's third season with at least that many points.

Shesterkin made 31 saves in a 6-3 loss to Columbus on Thursday.

New York is last in the Eastern Conference with 64 points and is five points behind Florida, the next closest team. Shesterkin is doing his part, though -- he's 22-14-6 with one shutout, 2.56 GAA and .912 save percentage in 43 starts this year. That GAA is 12th best in the NHL among goalies with at least 21 games played. His save percentage is eighth best. Shesterkin's 22 wins put him in a three-way tie with Dan Vladar and Jakub Dobes for 15th overall.

Greaves made 22 saves in a 6-3 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.

It was Greaves' first win over the Rangers' elite netminder, Igor Shesterkin. He was locked in a duel with Shesterkin on Nov. 15 that ended in a 2-1 shootout loss for the young Blue Jacket. Greaves has gone 10-0-2 in 12 starts since Rick Bowness replaced Dean Evason as head coach Jan. 12. Overall, Greaves is 23-12-8 with two shutouts, 2.61 GAA and .909 save percentage in 42 starts this season. His numbers are eerily close to Shesterkin's 22-14-6 with one shutout, 2.56 GAA and .912 save percentage. Greaves isn't that good, but his season certainly is.

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

Jenner now has 10 goals, 21 assists and 107 shots in 53 games this season. Most of his production came earlier in the season. In his last 20 games, Jenner has just two goals and five assists.

Toffoli sustained an undisclosed injury Thursday versus the Sabres and is doubtful to return, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Toffoli didn't come out of the locker room for the second period. Assuming he can't return, he'll be questionable to play Saturday versus the Flyers.

Fantilli scored twice Thursday in a 6-3 win over the Rangers. He fired a game-high nine shots.

Fantilli scored the game winner on a second-period power play. His second goal sealed the win into the empty net. Fantilli's current scoring streak stands at five games and seven points (three goals, four assists). One goal and three of the assists came on the power play. Fantilli has been dominant since late January. He has 21 points, including nine goals, in 19 games since Jan. 24.

Glendening missed Thursday's game versus the Kings due to a lower-body injury and is considered day-to-day.

Glendening was a late scratch Thursday. The 36-year-old scored Wednesday versus the Ducks but apparently came out of the game a bit worse for wear. It's not yet clear if he'll suit up versus the Sharks on Saturday.

Barkey missed Thursday's game versus the Kings due to an upper-body injury and is considered day-to-day.

Barkey was a late scratch for the contest, forcing the Flyers to go with seven defensemen. The 20-year-old's day-to-day label suggests his injury isn't too serious at this point. The Flyers' next game is Saturday in San Jose.
