NHL Player News

Dach scored two goals on four shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Rangers.

Dach's first goal was ultimately the game-winner, and he added an empty-netter to seal it. The 23-year-old forward has a pair of multi-point efforts over his last four games, with those three goals and one helper accounting for all of his offense this season. Across 11 outings, he's added 22 shots on net, 24 hits, eight PIM and a minus-1 rating. Dach is currently in a second-line role, which gives him a better chance to produce offense than his previous bottom-six usage did.

Tomkins stopped 27 of 28 shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Rangers.

This was Tomkins' first game at the NHL level since the 2023-24 campaign. He was able to keep things rolling for the Oilers, who have won three straight games. The 32-year-old will continue to fill the backup role behind Tristan Jarry while Devon Levi (undisclosed) is out. Tomkins isn't likely to get a lot more work during this stint in the NHL -- the Oilers don't have another back-to-back for two weeks.

Schmaltz notched two power-play assists, three shots on goal and a minus-3 rating in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.

Schmaltz has a trio of assists over his last three games. Like many of the Mammoth's top players, Schmaltz has thrived on the power play over the first month of the season. He's at seven goals and nine assists through 15 games, with eight of his 16 points coming on the power play. He's added 41 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-9 rating while seeing steady top-six minutes.

Keller had two power-play assists, four shots on goal and a minus-4 rating in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.

Keller was able to assist on goals for Logan Cooley and Mikhail Sergachev, but the Mammoth's top line got caved in at even strength. Keller continues to contribute well on offense with a goal and six helpers over his last six games. He's up to four goals, 14 assists, 36 shots on net, 16 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 15 appearances. He's earned 12 of his 18 points on the power play, which has been a strength for Utah this season.

Simashev scored a goal and blocked two shots in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.

Simashev has three goals over his last four games. He remains in a third-pairing role, which will make it challenging for him to be a regular contributor on offense. The 21-year-old blueliner is at five points, 16 shots on net, 20 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating across 15 appearances this season. Simashev is still a player to watch in fantasy, but he doesn't need to be widely rostered yet.

Sergachev scored a power-play goal on two shots, added two PIM, logged three hits and went minus-3 in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.

Sergachev extended his point streak to seven games with the tally. He has three goals and five assists in that span. The 28-year-old defenseman is up to five goals, 12 assists, seven power-play points, 36 shots on net, 11 hits, 20 blocked shots, 17 PIM and a plus-1 rating across 15 appearances. Sergachev can offer a little of everything and should be a fixture in fantasy lineups.

Cooley scored a power-play goal on two shots, dished an assist, added two PIM and went minus-2 in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers.

Cooley has found his scoring touch with seven goals and an assist over his last five games. The 22-year-old is up to eight goals, nine helpers, 23 shots on net, 18 hits and a minus-3 rating over 15 appearances. He's playing with some grit and has been on the wing lately, giving Cooley a number of different paths to helping his fantasy managers, though the offense is looking like the start of a breakout year.

Vejmelka allowed five goals on 20 shots in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Flyers. The sixth goal was an empty-netter.

Vejmelka was rested in Pittsburgh to begin Utah's road trip, but the game off didn't do him any good. He's now allowed at least three goals in five straight outings, going 1-4-0 in that span. Overall, he's at a 6-5-0 record with a 3.31 GAA and an .868 save percentage across 12 games. Vejmelka's still seeing a heavy workload, but his recent performance is making him tough to trust for good numbers. The Mammoth's next stop on this trip is in Toronto on Tuesday.

York posted an assist and three blocked shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Mammoth.

York recently returned from an upper-body injury that cost him eight games. He's produced a helper, a minus-1 rating, three shots on net and seven blocks over three games since he returned. The assist was his first point of the year. York saw power-play time prior to his injury, but Oliver Bonk is now on the second unit, which could lead to less scoring upside for York moving forward.

Sanheim notched two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-4 rating in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Mammoth.

Sanheim is picking up the pace with four helpers over his last four games. The 30-year-old defenseman's not going to lead the way on offense from the blue line, but he can chip in a little of everything, which makes him a good fantasy target for category coverage. He has a goal, six assists, 29 shots on net, 13 hits, 35 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 16 appearances on the year.
