Adam Larsson - Registers assist in win Larsson notched an assist, two shots on goal, three blocked shots, two PIM and went plus-3 in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Larsson set up a Jordan Eberle tally in the first period. With a goal and four assists over his last seven games, Larsson is in one of his most productive stretches of the season. He's up to 14 points in 42 outings while adding 81 blocked shots, 75 shots on net, 72 hits and a plus-4 rating through 42 appearances in a top-pairing role.

Tomas Tatar - Notches helper in win Tatar managed an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Tatar has slowed down with just two points over his last seven contests after beginning his Kraken tenure with four points across four games. The winger helped out on a Jordan Eberle tally in the first period. Tatar has seen top-line usage, but he could get shuffled around if Matty Beniers (upper body) misses time. For the season, Tatar has 15 points, 37 shots on net, 20 hits and a plus-6 rating through 38 contests between the Kraken and the Avalanche.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Alexander Wennberg - Hands out helper Saturday Wennberg produced an assist, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Wennberg has two goals and an assist during his three-game point streak. The 29-year-old center is being lifted by the Kraken's overall better play, racking up five points during the team's nine-game winning streak. Wennberg is up to 18 points, 62 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 42 outings in his usual second-line role.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Jaden Schwartz - Stays warm with assist Schwartz posted an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Schwartz is up to four points across three games since he returned from a lower-body injury. The winger set up the second of Jared McCann's goals in this game. Schwartz has 19 points, 56 shots on net, 19 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 26 appearances. He's seeing top-six minutes and power-play time on a surging team, which makes him a strong addition in fantasy.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Vince Dunn - Assist, fight in win Dunn logged an assist, five PIM, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Dunn was busy in the second period. He set up a Tye Kartye goal and then came to the defense of Matty Beniers, fighting Cole Sillinger after a heavy hit. Over his last eight games, Dunn has racked up 10 points, including three on the power play. The defenseman is enjoying another strong campaign on the Kraken's top pairing, posting 35 points (13 on the power play), 84 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 48 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 42 appearances.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Justin Schultz - Contributes two helpers Schultz notched two assists and three blocked shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact One of Schultz's helpers came on the power play. This was his second multi-point effort of the campaign. The defenseman has four goals, nine assists, 54 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 34 appearances this season, playing mainly on the third pairing. Four of his helpers have come with the man advantage.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Yanni Gourde - Hits 300-point mark in career Gourde recorded two assists in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact His first helper got him to 300 points in his 507th game, and he added point No. 301 in short order. Gourde is off to an excellent start in January with three goals and two assists over his last five games. He had just two points in all of December, and he's now at seven goals, 11 helpers, 91 shots on net, 59 hits, 43 PIM and a minus-2 rating through 42 appearances this season.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Tye Kartye - Scores again Saturday Kartye scored a goal, logged three hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Kartye has goals in consecutive games, which has helped him stay in the lineup. With Andre Burakovsky (lower body) and Matty Beniers (upper body) both exiting this game early, Kartye's spot on the fourth line is likely safe in the short term. The 22-year-old is up to eight goals, 14 points, 71 shots on net, 71 hits, 27 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 41 appearances in his rookie season.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Eeli Tolvanen - Deposits empty-netter Tolvanen scored an empty-net goal on five shots, logged three hits and blocked three shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Tolvanen tallied with 1:05 left in the game. The winger is up two goals and five assists during his five-game point streak. Tolvanen continues to impress in a third-line role, racking up 11 goals, 28 points, 87 shots on net, 87 hits, 48 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating as a steady two-way winger. With a chance at a 50-point campaign and plenty of non-scoring production, Tolvanen is a steady fantasy option.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Jordan Eberle - Lights lamp Saturday Eberle scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Eberle had been limited to two assists over the previous seven contests. His goal Saturday tied the game at 1-1 midway through the first period. The winger has lacked consistency despite a top-line role this season. He's up to five goals, 19 points, 81 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 38 appearances, making it unlikely he'll be able to collect a third straight 20-goal campaign.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Brian Dumoulin - Rare two-point effort Dumoulin scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Dumoulin's goal came out of a cannon at 8:28 of the third period, snuffing out any hope Columbus had for a comeback. Dumoulin has three points over his last two games, matching his total from the previous 28 contests. For the season, the defenseman is at nine points, 30 shots on net, 31 hits, 38 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 41 appearances. He's holding onto a third-pairing spot, and with the Kraken winning, it's unlikely Ryker Evans will get a chance to pry it away from Dumoulin any time soon.

Joey Daccord - Wins eighth straight game Daccord made 32 saves in a 7-4 win over Columbus on Saturday.

Impact Thirteen of those saves came in a busy third period. Daccord has won eight consecutive games, allowing just 12 goals in that span. He's now 13-5-8 in 27 games played (24 starts), and he came into the contest with a sparkling 2.23 GAA and .925 save percentage. He's having the season of his career.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Oliver Bjorkstrand - Big three-point effort in win Bjorkstrand had a goal and two assists in a 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets on Saturday.

Impact His goal came on a second-period power play. Bjorkstrand is on a modest three-game, five-point streak that includes four assists. And he has 34 points, including 12 goals, in 42 games. That's impressive for a third-line guy - he's actually on pace for career-high 66 points and 200-plus shots. And that's impressive given Seattle's sluggish start to the season Bjorkstrand is an underrated fantasy play who may help you win a title.

Matty Beniers - Leaves Saturday's game Beniers (upper body) didn't play in the third period of Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets, and there was no update on his status after the game, per Circling Seattle Sports.

Impact Beniers was injured on a hit from Cole Sillinger in the second period. The Kraken have a back-to-back in Pittsburgh and against the Rangers on Monday and Tuesday, respectively, and it's unclear if Beniers will be available for those games. With Andre Burakovsky (lower body) also leaving the contest, the Kraken may need to have Devin Shore and Kailer Yamamoto in the lineup.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Jared McCann - Snaps nine-game goal drought McCann had two goals and an assist in a 7-4 win over Columbus on Saturday.

Impact The goals were McCann's first in 10 games. His first goal knotted the game 2-2 in the first period. And his second at 6:17 of the thirst stood as the winner. McCann is well off last season's 40-goal, 70-point campaign, but that's no surprise - his 19 percent shooting rate was way above his career 12.3. But he does have 16 goals and 26 points in 41 games, which project to a third-straight 50-plus point campaign, and it might include 30 goals. McCann could be one of those second-half types that help you win a league.

Andre Burakovsky - Exits with lower-body injury Burakovsky (lower body) won't return to Saturday's game versus the Blue Jackets, Alison Lukan of Root Sports reports.

Impact Burakovsky was injured in the first period, and he won't be able to finish the game. Injury luck has not been on his side this season -- he missed 29 of 30 games between Oct. 24 and Dec. 27 due to a pair of injuries. The Kraken have a back-to-back Monday and the Tuesday, so it's unclear if he'll be available in either of those games. Kailer Yamamoto would likely enter the lineup in a fourth-line role if Burakovsky misses time.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Joey Daccord - Starting in Columbus Daccord will guard the road goal Saturday against Columbus, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Daccord has stopped 229 of 237 shots during his seven-game winning streak. In 26 appearances this season, he has posted a 12-5-8 record with two shutouts, a 2.23 GAA and a .925 save percentage. The Blue Jackets rank 22nd in the league with 2.98 goals per contest this campaign.
