Top PP times: Wheeler (4:55), Little (4:52), Enstrom (4:49), Ladd (4:44), Stapleton (3:16)
Trending: Blake Wheeler (1G, +1, 1 SOG) scored against his former team and he’s just fitting in so well with the Jets. Tobias Enstrom (2A, 1 SOG) has just been a steady stream of points from the back end. His peripherals may not be strong for fantasy, but he’s just so steady out there. Andrew Ladd (1G, +1, 4 PIM, 5 SOG) has points in four of seven and Zach Bogosian (2A, +1, 2:55 PP, no SOG) officially passed last year’s total of 17 points tonight. The bad news is he also left this game injured. Eric Fehr (1G, 0:57 PP, 2 SOG) finally notched his first goal of the season in his 18th start.
Combos: Benoit Pouliot - Patrice Bergeron - Tyler Seguin/ Milan Lucic - David Krejci - Nathan Horton/ Chris Kelly - Zach Hamill - Rich Peverley/ Daniel Paille - Gregory Campbell - Shawn Thornton/ Zdeno Chara - Johnny Boychuk/ Dennis Seidenberg - Joe Corvo/ Andrew Ference - Adam McQuaid

Top PP times: Chara (3:31), Peverley (3:25), Krejci, Lucic, Horton (3:23)
Trending: Shawn Thornton has little fantasy value aside from his PIM, but the penalty shot he scored tonight was pretty damn sweet. David Krejci’s (2A, -1, 2 SOG) point streak reached an impressive nine games here. Nathan Horton (2G, -1, 3 SOG) had 10 points in 15 GP headed in here, while Milan Lucic (2A, -1, 3 SOG) had multi-pointers in two of three coming in. Tyler Seguin (1G, +1, 1:53 PP, 5 SOG) has points in five straight, but he’s been exceptional most of this season. Rich Peverley (1A, 3 SOG) had 13 points in 13 GP coming in here and Benoit Pouliot (1G, +1, 1:53 PP, 3 SOG) had eight points in eight games before this affair.

Top PP times: Kuba (4:47), Gonchar (4:30), Alfredsson (3:34), Michalek (3:26), Spezza (3:14)
Trending: Erik Karlsson apparently has an upper-body injury now and was scratched tonight. He tweaked something during warm-up and should be fine for the next game. Jason Spezza (1G, 1A, +2, 3 SOG) has goals in three of five this month and that early second period marker was a beauty. Great effort. Milan Michalek (2G, +2, 2 PIM, 3 SOG) has goals in two of three with points in all three. Nick Foligno (2A, +2, 0:32 PP, 2 SOG) has B2B multi-pointers.

ST. LOUIS BLUES 3 @ MONTREAL CANADIENS 0
Goaltending match-up: Jaroslav Halak (19/19) vs. Carey Price (22/25, .880 SV%). This was Halak's second shutout of the season and 18th of his career. He had seven last year. To get it in Montreal against his former team? Priceless. Brian Elliott will start Thursday.

Top PP times: Stamkos, St. Louis, Downie, Lecavalier (5:00), MAB (3:28)
Trending: Steven Stamkos (1G, 1A, 6 SOG) found the back of the net yet again. There was an injury scare in this one and although he came back, we’ll see if anything lingers.

Beauty game for Curtis Glencross (1G, 3A, +2, 2 PIM, 2:15 PP, 1 SOG) again and he and Olli Jokinen (2A, +1, 1 SOG) continue to produce. Jay Bouwmeester (1G, 1A, 1 SOG) has points in five of 10. T.J.
