Jordan Martinook - Bags helper in lossMartinook produced an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Predators.

ImpactMartinook has two goals and two assists over his last five contests. The 32-year-old winger is up to 17 points, 57 shots on net, 38 hits, 20 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating over 34 outings this season. He's been a steady depth scorer on the third line and should continue to carry some fantasy value in deeper formats.

Jordan Staal - Breaks up shutout bidStaal scored a goal on four shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Predators.

ImpactStaal's goal at 4:37 of the third period ended Juuse Saros' shutout bid, but the Hurricanes' comeback attempt fell flat. With five points over his last five games, Staal is carving out a nice chunk of offense, though it's possible he loses his momentum during the holiday break. The 36-year-old center has four goals, 14 points, 47 shots on net, 50 hits and a plus-8 rating through 34 appearances. His goal was his first since Nov. 20 versus the Flyers.

Tommy Novak - Pockets helper MondayNovak earned an assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Hurricanes.

ImpactNovak has generated five points over his last seven contests, though he's now gone five games without a goal. The 27-year-old forward is up to nine points, 50 shots on net, 12 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 28 appearances. Novak was listed as the third-line center Monday but saw a reduced role with the Predators dressing 11 forwards and seven defensemen. The team has struggled to score this year, making depth players like Novak risky options for fantasy managers.

Colton Sissons - Ends drought with helperSissons logged an assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Hurricanes.

ImpactSissons has had a terrible time generating offense this season. His helper Monday ended an 18-game dry spell, during which he had 17 shots on net, 19 hits and 19 blocked shots with a minus-5 rating. Sissons has been in a bottom-six role most of the time after failing to seize an opportunity to play on the second line. He has three points, 31 shots on net, 38 blocks, 41 hits and a minus-15 rating over 34 appearances.

Mark Jankowski - Pots goal in winJankowski scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Hurricanes.

ImpactJankowski ended a five-game slump with his third-period tally, stretching the Predators' lead to 4-0. The 30-year-old forward has maintained a third-line role over the last month, earning six points across 15 games since rejoining the lineup on a regular basis Nov. 23. Jankowski is up to seven points, 33 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 27 appearances. He plays in a third-line role and only sees power-play time occasionally, so he's not a great option for most fantasy formats.

The veteran center has been peaking into form of late and has cracked the scoresheet in all but one of his last seven contests, tallying seven points (three goals, four assists) in that span.
