Erik Gustafsson - Notches power-play assistGustafsson registered a power-play assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and four PIM in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Rangers.
ImpactGustafsson has an assist in each of his two games this season, both coming on the power play. He's added five shots on net, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. Gustafsson has done the job he was signed for, but he may end up slipping out of the lineup once again, as Jeff Petry (upper body) was cleared to play Saturday versus the Predators after a three-game absence.

Lucas Raymond - Records assist ThursdayRaymond notched an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Rangers.
ImpactRaymond has four helpers and 11 shots on net through four contests this season. That's a bit of bad luck to not have a goal yet, but the 22-year-old is still involved in the offense. While he saw just 15:26 of ice time in Thursday's loss, Raymond is a virtual lock to remain in a top-six role throughout the year after signing an eight-year contract with a cap hit just north of $8 million in September.

Filip Chytil - Adds helper in winChytil notched an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.
ImpactChytil has a goal, an assist, eight shots on net and a plus-5 rating over four contests this season. The 25-year-old center is firmly in a third-line role, slotting in behind Mika Zibanejad and Vincent Trocheck down the middle. Chytil's career high in points is 45 from the 2022-23 campaign, and that's a mark he could reach again if he stays healthy this year. For fantasy purposes, his usefulness is limited since he doesn't add much physicality and he plays a deep position.

Victor Mancini - Scores first NHL goalMancini scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.
ImpactMancini joined the goal-scoring ranks in the NHL in just his fourth contest. The 22-year-old defenseman has held his own in a third-pairing role, adding nine shots on net, six blocked shots, three hits and a plus-2 rating so far. He may not stay in the lineup once Ryan Lindgren (upper body) returns, but Mancini is gaining valuable experience to be a contributor throughout 2024-25.
