Lohrei scored a goal in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Lohrei snapped a seven-game point drought with the tally. He answered the Blackhawks' fourth goal less than a minute later during the third period, sparking the Bruins' comeback. Lohrei has three goals, three assists, 14 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 15 appearances this season. He's holding onto a third-pairing role for now, but he could get scratched if he goes through any additional slumps, especially since the Bruins are rostering eight blueliners currently.

Mittelstadt scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Mittelstadt continues to be a decent source of offense in a middle-six role. He has three goals and three helpers over his last six outings. For the season, the 27-year-old forward is up to five goals, four assists, 22 shots on net, seven blocked shots, six hits and a plus-8 rating through 15 appearances.

Geekie scored a goal on three shots, doled out three hits and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Geekie ended a nine-game goal drought with his tally Saturday. He had five assists during that stretch. The bill looks to be coming due for his last two seasons of incredible efficiency. Geekie is at two goals, eight assists, 20 shots on net, 24 hits and a plus-3 rating across 15 appearances. He's shooting 10.0 percent so far, a reasonable mark but nowhere near his 21.5 percent mark from the 2025-26 regular season. Coupled with a significant drop in shot volume, it's understandable why Geekie's scoring pace has plummeted.

Lindholm scored the game-winning goal, took two shots on net, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Lindholm's tally helped Boston complete the comeback for an overtime win. The 31-year-old center has two goals and three helpers over his last five contests. For the season, he's produced five tallies, seven assists, 26 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-6 rating through 15 appearances. Lindholm continues to work on the third line at even strength, but his power-play role has his overall usage in line with a top-six forward.

Pastrnak scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Pastrnak has four goals and three assists over his last five outings. The winger continues to be a consistent source of offense from the Bruins' top line. Through 15 contests, he's collected eight goals, 11 assists, 50 shots on net, 16 hits and a plus-6 rating. That's a pace that would see him secure his fifth straight 100-point campaign as long as he's able to stay healthy, though he's also shooting 16.0 percent, his highest mark since 2019-20.

Pospisil scored a goal on two shots and added six hits in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.

Pospisil has two goals and two assists over his last four games. The 26-year-old is getting some extra responsibility on the third line as well as on the penalty kill this season. He's done fairly well so far on a low-scoring team, earning three goals, three helpers, 24 shots on net, 66 hits, 10 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 14 appearances. Given his prolific physical play, Pospisil makes for a decent option in banger leagues and a passable one-category target in deeper standard formats.

Farabee scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.

Farabee has scored a goal in five of his last six games. The 26-year-old winger couldn't find the net early in the campaign, but he's been steady with playmaking to perform well over the first month. He has five goals, 10 assists, 33 shots on net, 11 blocked shots, seven hits, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating through 14 appearances this season.

Sergeev stopped 28 of 33 shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.

It was the second half of a back-to-back, with travel and against one of the toughest offenses in the league. Sergeev understandably wasn't able to do much in that situation, taking a loss in his second career start in the NHL. He's set to serve as Dustin Wolf's backup while Devin Cooley (lower body) is out, but don't expect much out of Sergeev when he starts. It'll likely be Wolf between the pipes against his hometown team when the Flames visit the Sharks on Monday.

Toews recorded two assists, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

Toews is rolling with two goals and four assists during a four-game point streak. That's his best stretch of the season, but the 32-year-old defenseman has provided reliable scoring throughout the campaign. He's at four goals, nine helpers, 22 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and a plus-14 rating through 14 appearances. Toews' offense was too low last year, and it's too high right now -- expect a slowdown to come at some point, though he still offers enough with shots, hits and blocks to maintain good fantasy value.

Makar registered four assists, three shots on goal and a plus-4 rating in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

Makar has always been good against his hometown team, but he's taken it up a notch lately. He has at least three points in each of his last four games against the Flames, with Saturday's four-point performance being his best effort in the matchup. For the season, he's at three goals, 12 helpers, 37 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 13 appearances. He's earned just two of his helpers on the power play and should be able to be more productive in that situation as the season progresses.
