Pockets assist Harpur posted an assist, two PIM and two blocked shots in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Harpur set up Mathieu Olivier's third-period tally. With two assists in his last three games, Harpur is on an unusually strong run of play. That accounts for all of his offense in 15 contests, and he's added 15 hits, 11 blocked shots and 13 PIM in a third-pairing role.

Bags assist Thursday Fabbro posted an assist and went plus-3 in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Fabbro notched the secondary helper on Mikael Granlund's second-period tally. Through 11 games in March, Fabbro has a modest four assists. The 22-year-old defenseman has matched his 11-point output from last year, needing 32 games this season as opposed to 64 in 2019-20. He's added 55 shots on goal, 50 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a plus-1 rating.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Gathers helper in win Cousins posted an assist and a plus-4 rating in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Cousins picked up his helper on Rocco Grimaldi's first of four goals at 5:34 of the first period. The assist snapped a five-game point drought for Cousins, who now has 10 points, 38 shots on net, 27 PIM and 27 hits through 33 outings. Playing in a bottom-six role, the 27-year-old forward isn't likely to help out much in fantasy.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Adds power-play assist Forsberg recorded a power-play assist and two PIM in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Forsberg had the secondary helper on an Eeli Tolvanen goal in the first period. The 26-year-old Forsberg has two points in his last three games after he shook off a five-game drought. The Swede has accumulated 29 points (11 tallies, 18 helpers), 116 shots on goal, 43 hits and 14 PIM through 34 contests.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Supplies two assists in rout Haula recorded two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-4 rating in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Haula set up the first and third goals of Rocco Grimaldi's four-goal outing. Thursday marked Haula's first multi-point effort of the season. The Finn has struggled this year with 11 points, 41 shots on net, 34 hits and a minus-1 rating in 30 contests.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Dishes pair of helpers Josi registered two assists and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Josi set up tallies by Eeli Tolvanen (power play) and Mikael Granlund (even strength) in the contest. The 30-year-old Josi has three assists in two games since he returned from an upper-body injury. The Swiss defenseman is up to 19 points, 86 shots on net and a minus-9 rating through 27 contests. Ten of his 17 assists have come on the power play.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Goals in consecutive games Olivier scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Olivier has scored in consecutive games for the first time in his career. The fourth-line winger has five points, 39 PIM, 19 shots on net and 43 hits through 22 contests this season. Despite his recent success, fantasy managers probably won't need to roster Olivier.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Bulges twine Thursday Tolvanen scored a power-play goal and added three hits in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Tolvanen's first-period marker stood as the game-winner, even if a four-goal game from Rocco Grimaldi stole the spotlight. The 21-year-old Tolvanen has a pair of tallies and three helpers during his three-game point streak. He's at eight goals, six assists, 39 shots on net and 46 hits through 25 appearances. With top-six duties and a hearty power-play role, the Finn is worth a look for fantasy managers who need a boost in scoring.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Tallies in blowout win Granlund scored a goal and added two PIM in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Granlund scored in his second straight game, adding an insurance tally in the second period of Thursday's big win. The 29-year-old center has 13 points, 47 shots on net and a minus-5 rating in 30 contests. Despite the low output on offense, he's still seeing top-six minutes for the Predators.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Explodes with four goals Grimaldi scored four goals on seven shots in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact Grimaldi entered Thursday's game on a 15-game point drought. He more than doubled his goal output for the year to seven tallies in 26 contests. He had a hat trick by the 8:08 mark of the first period, and added the fourth goal late in the third period. The 28-year-old shouldn't be expected to perform at this level, as he has just eight points, 37 shots on net and a minus-7 rating in 26 contests.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Hot run continues Saros stopped 20 of 21 shots in Thursday's 7-1 win over the Red Wings.
Impact The Predators' offense tallied four times in a span of 2:34 in the first period, giving Saros more than enough support. He wasn't very generous to the Red Wings either, notching his fourth straight game of allowing one goal or less. The Finnish goalie improved to 8-6-0 with a 2.48 GAA and a .920 save percentage through 17 games. Saros probably isn't too far away from officially reclaiming the No. 1 job from Pekka Rinne, although they'll probably split a back-to-back versus the Blackhawks on Saturday and Sunday.
MARCH 26, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Taking on Red Wings Saros will guard the home net in Thursday's game versus the Red Wings, Brooks Bratten of the Predators' official site reports.
Impact Saros has been phenomenal since returning from injured reserve March 18, as he's allowed just two goals on the last 120 shots he's faced. Most recently, he posted a 31-save shutout against the Red Wings, and it should be another favorable matchup Thursday.
