Artem Zub - Helpers in consecutive games Zub notched an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kings.
Impact Zub has helpers in back-to-back games for the first time since Dec. 19-21, though he has three multi-assist efforts in that span. The 28-year-old defenseman is up to 22 points in 48 contests, matching his career high from 81 outings in 2021-22. He's added 60 shots on net, 98 hits, 85 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating as a reliable top-four blueliner this season.

Impact Sanderson has four assists, including two on the power play, over his last 11 outings. He's had trouble stringing offense together for much of the campaign, but he plays well enough all around to maintain a top-four role. Sanderson is at 28 points (eight on the power play) with 122 shots on net, 107 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 58 appearances.
MARCH 8 • ROTOWIRE

Stutzle is at 57 points, 154 shots on net, 83 hits and a minus-10 rating through 61 outings overall. He's highly unlikely to match last year's 90-point season, but a late surge could see him challenge the point-per-game mark.
