E. Brannstrom - D

OTT

Erik Brannstrom played only 5:19 Sunday and was benched for all but 41 seconds in the third period.

“No, I don’t believe he is (hurt),” Ottawa coach D.J. Smith said. “You know, I think Jack (Capuano, Senators assistant coach) went down to five. There were a lot of penalty kills and it’s tough to get into a rhythm when that happens. We did what we had to do to get the win and we’ll move on.” Look for Christian Wolanin to return to the lineup Tuesday in place of Brannstrom.

T. Toffoli - F

MTL

Tyler Toffoli and the Montreal Canadiens are in Vancouver Monday to take on the Canucks.

Toffoli has been outstanding against his former teammates as he has five goals and eight points in five games this season. Toffoli has 15 goals and 21 points in 23 games this season and has a plus-nine rating.

T. Rask - G

BOS

Tuukka Rask may have suffered a back injury Sunday.

Rask was seen leaving the net for an extra attacker holding his back and was supposed to be part of the post-game interview but was unavailable. Stay tuned as the Bruins are entering the toughest part of their schedule with seven games in 11 days beginning on March 9. Rask is 8-4-2 with a 2.46 GAA and a .906 save percentage.

M. Murray - G

OTT

Matt Murray made 31 saves during Sunday's 4-3 SO victory over the Calgary Flames.

Murray allowed a total of three goals on 34 shots and finished the night with a .912 save percentage. Murray put up a good performance during this matchup and was a big factor in securing the win for the Senators. Calgary definitely put up more offensive pressure than Ottawa during the game, and thus Murray's level of play was a game-deciding element. This win improves his season record to 7-11-1. Murray has had a rather off and on season, so he will need to find some consistency before he can be considered an option in a fantasy scenario.

C. White - F

OTT

Colin White scored a goal during Sunday's 4-3 SO win over the Calgary Flames.

White's goal came just over seven minutes into the second period. He scored after picking up a loose puck in front of the Flames net. His goal put the Senators up 3-1. This was White's seventh goal of the season. He now has a total of 12 points in 23 games played. White has played rather well against the Calgary Flames in particular this year. In the five games Ottawa has had against Calgary, White has five points.

J. Markstrom - G

CGY

Jacob Markstrom made 19 saves during Sunday's 4-3 SO loss to the Ottawa Senators.

Markstrom allowed three goals on 22 shots and finished the night with a .864 save percentage. Markstrom had a less than ideal start to the game, as he allowed two goals in just over two minutes during the first period. This gave Ottawa an early lead. Calgary managed to make a comeback, but Markstrom was unable to hold the Senators at bay during shootout and he comes out of this game with an OT loss. This brings his record to 8-7-2. Including this matchup, Markstrom has now gone four consecutive games without a win. He has allowed three or more goals in every game during this losing stretch.

Added 12:46 am (EST)

N/A

M. Tkachuk - F

CGY

Matthew Tkachuk picked up two points during Sunday's 4-3 SO loss to the Ottawa Senators.

Tkachuk's first point of the night came as a primary assist on a goal scored by Mark Giordano early in the second. Later in the third, Tkachuk notched another assist on a power play goal scored by Johnny Gaudreau. Tkachuk also posted an impressive 8:52 of power play ice time during this game as well. After this matchup, Tkachuk brings his assist total up to 14. That combined with his seven goals puts him at 21 points on the year. Tkachuk has five points in his last two games against the Ottawa Senators.

Added 12:36 am (EST)

N/A

M. Heiskanen - D

DAL

Miro Heiskanen picked up a pair of assists in Sunday's 4-3 home shootout loss against the Nashville Predators.

Heiskanen also contributed to the fantasy bottom line with a plus-1 rating, two shots on goal, a blocked shot and a hit in his 32:30 of ice time across 30 shifts. The 21-year-old rearguard from Espoo, FIN is starting to awaken from his slumber, posting two goals, four points and a plus-2 rating during his season-high three-game point streak. He'll look to keep it going in a positive direction Tuesday against the visiting Chicago Blackhawks.
