All Player Alarms Jim Bowden's Fantasy Baseball Draft Guide

E. Lindholm - F

CGY

Lindholm emerged from Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres with two power-play assists over 20:29 of ice time.

The Swede needed those apples to officially meet or exceed his career-best marks in each widely adopted offensive fantasy category. Lindhom has crafted 21 goals, 34 assists and an immaculate plus-26 rating through 48 games. Not only is he jiving at 5-on-5, but the first-year Flame has garnered a pair of shorthanded points and a jaw-dropping total (21) on the power play. Oh, and he's snagged five game-winning goals to boot. Playing alongside Johnny Gaudreau -- who we think rocks the transition game better than anyone -- as well as heady pivot Sean Monahan has been a dream assignment for Lindholm in his sixth NHL season.

Added 10:58 am (EST)

N/A

L. Couture - F

Couture scored a goal against the Coyotes on Wednesday.

Couture's tally ended a five-game pointless streak. Despite the slump, the 29-year-old is still on pace to best his career-high from 2014-15 in which he tallied 67 points.

Added 10:57 am (EST)

N/A

J. McCabe - D

BUF

McCabe registered a goal in Wednesday's victory over Calgary.

McCabe has two goals in 12 games since returning from an upper-body injury. The defender has matched his career-high with four tallies and will push for the 20-point mark for the second time in his career if he can stay healthy.

Added 10:44 am (EST)

N/A

I. Samsonov - G

WSH

Samsonov stopped all 16 shots he faced in AHL Hershey's 1-0 overtime win over Binghamton on Wednesday.

Samsonov has now racked up back-to-back shutouts. Samsonov (and the Caps) will take it given how much he has struggled in his first AHL campaign. Samsonov's overall numbers (7-11-2, 3.40 GAA, .871 save percentage) have been dreadful while playing for a last place team. There is still zero reason for fantasy owners to be concerned long term, but Samsonov is going to need an extended apprenticeship at the AHL level.

Added 10:43 am (EST)

N/A

A. Stolarz - G

PHI

Stolarz (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Thursday and subsequently sent to AHL Lehigh Valley for conditioning purposes.

The AHL's Phantoms are on the road to face the Wolf Pack on Friday, followed by a home game versus the Amerks, so we can likely expect Stolarz to test out his injury in a live game this weekend. Philadelphia has relied heavily on Carter Hart, another rookie netminder, in Stolarz's absence.

Added 10:43 am (EST)

N/A

K. Alzner - D

MTL

Alzner was recalled from AHL Laval on Thursday.

Alzner will join the team for its trip to Columbus, though there is no guarantee he will slot into the lineup. If the defender does slot into the lineup, Brett Kulak or Jordie Benn figures to be the odd man out.

Added 10:35 am (EST)

N/A

K. Lind - F

VAN

Lind scored his first goal of the season for AHL Utica on Wednesday.

It only took 26 games. A big scorer throughout his junior career, Lind has really struggled to get on track in his first professional season. The lack of scoring aside, Lind has just 27 shots on goal in those 26 contests and that is simply not going to get the job done. All Vancouver can do now is hope Lind slowly gets better over the second half of the season and then picks up the pace in 2019-20. Still just 20 years old, time is on Lind's side.

Added 10:34 am (EST)

N/A

L. Crouse - F

ARI

Crouse registered an even-strength goal and an assist with the empty net in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

With seven goals and five assists through 45 games, Crouse has been brilliant in a role that has only afforded him 11:50 of average ice time. He's physically strong and keeps opponents honest at both ends of the ice. Crouse will also help fantasy owners that track hits, as he's generated 140 of those to rank 12th overall in the NHL.

Added 10:34 am (EST)

N/A

M. Kempe - F

ARI

Kempe garnered an assist versus San Jose on Wednesday.

Kempe has tallied three points in his previous five outings and is starting to heat up for the first time this season. The 30-year-old has already set career-highs in games played (25), assists (three), points (five) and shots (26). Even with his recent burst of offensive output, Kempe is unlikely to start lighting the lamp with consistency.

Added 10:31 am (EST)

N/A

I. Lyubushkin - D

ARI

Lyubushkin recorded an assist in Wednesday's 6-3 defeat to San Jose.

Lyubushkin has managed just three points in 27 contests this season and is still looking for his first NHL goal. The 24-year-old has served as a healthy scratch periodically throughout the year and likely will do again in the future, especially given his minus-11 rating. Even when he is in the lineup, the defenseman is logging just 14:04 of ice time per game, which limits his opportunities for putting points on the board.

Added 10:23 am (EST)

N/A

C. Fischer - F

ARI

Fischer produced a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

The points from Fischer took place in succession during the second period, giving the Chicago native his first multi-point game since Oct. 23. While the 'Yotes continue making moves to try and ignite the offense, the fact remains that this club only averages 2.61 goals per game -- 28th in the NHL -- with Fischer hardly moving the needle as the owner of 14 points (11 goals, three assists) through 46 contests.

Added 10:23 am (EST)

N/A

O. Ekman-Larsson - D

ARI

Ekman-Larsson scored a goal in a 6-3 victory against the Sharks on Wednesday.

It was his first goal of January, as he hadn't scored in seven straight games prior to Wednesday. The little scoring slump dropped Ekman-Larsson behind last season's goal-scoring pace, but he is still on track to match his 42 points from 2017-18. However, it's still costing owners in the plus-minus department, as Ekman-Larsson owns a minus-16 rating. Over the last two years, he's been one of the worst in that category with a minus-53 rating.
