Ben Chiarot - Finds back of net SundayChiarot scored his third goal of the season in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Bruins.
ImpactThe veteran blueliner snapped an 11-game point drought by snapping a shot from the slot past Jeremy Swayman late in the second period. Chiarot also added two shots on net, four PIM, three blocked shots, a hit and a minus-2 rating to his ledger, and he has some fantasy value in formats that utilize secondary categories -- through 37 games this season, he's recorded 10 points, 30 PIM, 55 shots on net, 63 hits and 72 blocked shots.

Alex Lyon - Bounced by BostonLyon stopped 19 of 22 shots in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Bruins.
ImpactBoston's final two tallies were scored into an empty net. The 31-year-old netminder hasn't looked great since returning from an upper-body injury, allowing seven goals on 59 shots over the last two games, but with Ville Husso (lower body) still sidelined and James Reimer fighting the puck (4.76 GAA in December), Lyon figures to see a starter's workload in the crease for Detroit.

Zach Aston-Reese - Recalled from minorsAston-Reese was summoned from AHL Grand Rapids on Monday.
ImpactAston-Reese has five goals, 11 points and 22 PIM over 26 games at the AHL level this season. During his lone appearance with the Red Wings in 2023-24, he was credited with two hits over 6:21 of ice time against Dallas on Dec. 11.

Hampus Lindholm - Snaps slump with two-point effortLindholm collected two assists in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Red Wings.
ImpactThe 29-year-old blueliner hadn't gotten onto the scoresheet at all over the prior nine games, but Lindholm snapped the slump with his first multi-point performance of the season. He's having trouble repeating his breakout 2022-23 numbers, and even when Charlie McAvoy's been on the shelf this season, Lindholm hasn't been able to take advantage. Through 35 games, he's managed only one goal and nine points.
