Ian Cole - Bags assist in lossCole notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
ImpactThis was Cole's second helper in his last six games, but just his fourth point since the start of November. The 35-year-old defenseman has stayed in the lineup, which has been a challenge for many of Utah's blueliners. He hasn't added much with nine points, 37 shots on net, 39 PIM, 41 hits and 95 blocked shots over 34 appearances. Cole plays a physical and defensive style that doesn't translate to high fantasy value.

Michael Carcone - Earns assistCarcone managed an assist in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
ImpactCarcone has contributed six points over his last 11 outings, though he had gone quiet in the three games prior to Monday. The 28-year-old helped out on linemate Kevin Stenlund's first-period tally. For the season, Carcone has eight points, 42 shots on net, 21 PIM and 20 hits through 24 appearances. He's not particularly physical for a fourth-liner, but he can agitate and provide modest depth scoring.

Nick Schmaltz - Nabs helper MondaySchmaltz provided an assist and five shots on goal in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
ImpactSchmaltz has a goal and five assists over his last six outings. While it's a return to his helper-heavy production from earlier in the year, that's not a bad thing, as Schmaltz can make a big impact in that one category. He's up to five goals, 22 assists, 78 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 34 contests this season.

Clayton Keller - Stays warm with assistKeller produced an assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
ImpactKeller's point streak is up to five games (four goals, six assists). The 26-year-old helped out on a Barrett Hayton tally in the third period as Utah tried to create a comeback. Keller continues to play above a point-per-game pace with 36 points, as well as 87 shots on net and a plus-3 rating, through 34 appearances this season. He's been even better lately and will look to sustain that success after the holiday break when Utah hosts Colorado on Friday.

Kevin Stenlund - Pots goal in lossStenlund scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
ImpactStenlund tied the game at 1-1 just 99 seconds after Colin Blackwell opened the scoring for Dallas. The 28-year-old Stenlund went on an impressive five-game point streak earlier in December, but sustaining that pace was always going to be a tall order for the defensive-minded center. He's produced six goals, four assists, 46 shots on net, 27 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating through 34 appearances.

Barrett Hayton - Goals in consecutive gamesHayton scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
ImpactAfter going 21 games without a goal, Hayton has scored in back-to-back contests. His tally brought Utah within one in the third period, but the team couldn't tie the game. The 24-year-old center has four points over his last four outings and is up to seven goals, 16 points, 51 shots on net, 20 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating through 34 appearances this season. He's got something to prove to fantasy managers, but Hayton has some clear upside as long as he remains on the top line.

Karel Vejmelka - Yields three goals in lossVejmelka stopped 26 of 29 shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
ImpactVejmelka had won his previous four starts, but that run was snapped by a strong opponent. The 28-year-old has given up three or more goals in just three of his eight appearances in December, so he continues to put in good efforts as Utah's top goalie. He's at an 8-8-2 record with a 2.33 GAA and a .917 save percentage over 20 outings (18 starts) this season. Utah's schedule resumes Friday at home versus the Avalanche -- a team Vejmelka has gone 1-1-0 against with six goals allowed on 50 shots over two meetings this season.
