*The Boston Bruins bounced back after two straight humiliating defeats North of the border, holding off the resilient Hurricanes by a 2-1 score. Tuukka Rask was at his best in the crease, turning aside 33 of 34 shots to secure the must-win for the "B's"... With the game-winning goal, Patrice Bergeron has heated up with points in 6 of his last 7 games. It's always near the end of the calendar year when the brilliant two-way pivot cranks up the scoring, so make you are starting him. *Darcy Kuemper temporarily staves off talk of him losing his hold on the Minnesota Wild starting job with a super effort in the 2-1 road win in Dallas. He stopped 27 of 28 shots, while counterpart Kari Lehtonen couldn't turn a decent performance into a win for the Stars. Dallas has struggled heavily at home, winning only once in six games.. *Jarrett Stoll banged home the overtime game-winner for the Kings in this latest version of this heated Southern California rivalry. Jonathan Quick was the fantasy star of the game, stopping 27 of 29 shots to improve his record to 3-0-2 in his last five starts. Nothing less than elite reserved for this guy.. Ryan Kesler kept the Ducks close with his second-period goal and now is currently riding a six-game point streak. Start him next week as he has been picking up the offensive slack while Corey Perry recovers from the mumps. *Sergei Bobrovsky made a triumphant return to the Columbus crease, turning aside 36 of 37 shots in the 2-1 win over San Jose. Expect "Super Bob" to swiftly make his way up to fantasy elite status as the Blue Jackets continue to get healthier. "Buy low" on him if you can, as a huge second half is looming for the talented Russian.. * I almost forgot.. Jake Muzzin is looking real good for LA with two more assists, giving him seven points in his last five games. If you need help on defense, grab him if he is still available. *A couple of significant line developments for the Washington Capitals: Andre Burakovsky has been moved up to the top line, while Evgeni Kuznetsov is playing alongside Marcus Johansson on the 2nd unit. It didnt make much of a difference in their 4-1 loss to St. Louis, but they could have fantasy implications. *Montreal LW Max Pacioretty is getting on one of those scoring streaks, picking up two assists to give him six points over the last four games. Ride him while he is hot, but when he gets cold.. *Whats up with PK Subban lately? The elite offensive blueliner has been struggling and as a result, only played :24 on the power-play last night. New addition Sergei Gonchar was on for 2:24 minutes and also collected two even-strength assists. He might be worth a short-term flier.. *Vladimir Tarasenko was held off the scoreboard for St. Louis, but line-mates Jaden Schwartz(1G/1A) and Jori Lehtera(1G) extended their point streaks to six and seven games, respectively. All three are fantasy must-starts as their line has been amongst the NHL's most dominant this season. *If you are a Patrick Hornqvist owner, you haven't lost much sleep with the news that he has been moved onto a line with Evgeni Malkin. The Pittsburgh duo led the offensive charge in the 3-2 win over the New York Rangers, generating many good scoring opportunities. Shades of Malkin-James Neal from the last few years? Maybe, but Hornqvist is a solid fantasy option regardless of which superstar he plays with. *Ranger's goalie Henrik Lundqvist deserved a better fate last night, stopping 36 shots for an apparent win, until Dan Boyle's shoot-out goal was disallowed after it was ruled that the puck was double-touched. RW Ryan Callahan has been rolling for Tampa Bay, notching a goal and an assist to improve his numbers to 13 points in 13 games. Don't expect his PPG clip to continue for the long-haul, but his career high of 54 points should be surpassed if he can stay healthy. The Steven Stamkos effect is in full bloom.. *Taylor Hall news- The word is that the prolific left winger could be returning for Edmonton today. Get him in your starting line-ups ASAP if he returns. Don't worry about him showing some rust. He is the real deal and arguably the best fantasy LW option in ther game.
