Seth Jarvis - Struggling offensivelyJarvis extended his pointless streak to four games in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

ImpactJarvis has been scuffling a bit as of late, although overall he still has a solid 19 points in 27 games, putting him on pace for a 55- to 60-point season. He's still skating mainly on the Canes' top line alongside Sebastian Aho and Michael Bunting, so as long as he continues to see top-six minutes (he had a season high 22:14 TOI Saturday with 5:09 coming on the PP), he's worth starting in most formats.

Jesperi Kotkaniemi - Futility streak continuesKotkaniemi extended his current scoring drought to six games in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

ImpactKotkaniemi started the season with a very solid 13 points in 14 games (6G, 7A). However, he's been ice cold since then with just two goals in his last 13 contests. He's been skating primarily on the third line lately, seeing just 12:08 of ice time -- his third-lowest TOI of the season. If you have other options on your fantasy bench right now, it would be wise to use them.

Jack Drury - Lends assist in lossDrury posted an assist in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

ImpactDrury is doing well in a fourth-line role lately, picking up three goals and four assists over his last 12 contests. The 23-year-old set up Stefan Noesen's game-tying goal in the third period of Saturday's loss. Drury's eight points through 27 games this season match his output from 38 outings a year ago. He's added 32 shots on net and a plus-3 rating, but without more power-play time or a move up the lineup, he's a non-factor for most fantasy formats.

Dmitry Orlov - Helps out on power playOrlov notched a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

ImpactOrlov has a helper in each of the last two contests. His assist Saturday was his first power-play point since Oct. 21 -- he appears to be on the second unit over Jaccob Slavin. Orlov is up to 11 points (three on the power play), 42 shots on net, 35 hits, 23 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a minus-8 rating through 27 games this season. While it's encouraging that he's getting time with the man advantage, his third-pairing role at even strength doesn't inspire confidence in his long-term success.

Jesper Fast - Provides helper SaturdayFast notched an assist in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

ImpactFast snapped a five-game point drought when he set up Jordan Martinook's second-period tally. Points have come few and far between for Fast this season -- he's at six points, 34 shots on net, 19 hits and a minus-1 rating through 27 appearances. He's gone at least two games between each point, a level of inconsistency that's too high for most fantasy managers to tolerate.

Michael Bunting - Draws power-play assistBunting provided a power-play assist and went minus-3 in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

ImpactBunting got on the scoresheet for the second game in a row. He's also gone minus-8 over his last four outings. Bunting has yet to extend a point streak to three games this season, chipping in small bursts of offense without much extended success. The veteran winger has six goals, 11 assists, 40 shots on net, 33 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 26 contests.

DECEMBER 10, 2023•ROTOWIRE

Jaccob Slavin - Keeps rolling with assistSlavin managed an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.

ImpactSlavin has an assist in three straight games, and he's collected six helpers over his last six outings. The 29-year-old defenseman helped out on Jordan Martinook's first goal of the campaign at 7:23 of the second period. Slavin had a rough stretch in early November, but he's putting together a strong season with 17 points, 62 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating through 27 appearances.
