Tape Room: Mikko Rantanen, Martin Necas breakdown | NHL.comThe NHL Now crew break down the tape of Mikko Rantanen and Martin Necas after the blockbuster trade
Seth Jarvis - Records helper in lossJarvis posted an assist in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Wild.
ImpactThe helper was Jarvis' first point over three games in February after he racked up 11 goals and four assists over 15 contests in January. The Hurricanes are still toying with their lines -- Jackson Blake got the first chance on the top line with Sebastian Aho and Mikko Rantanen following the team's blockbuster trade with Colorado, but Jarvis was in that spot Thursday. Jarvis has played pretty well this season, earning 20 goals, 21 assists, 124 shots on net, 72 hits and a plus-1 rating over 48 appearances.

Andrei Svechnikov - Lends helper in lossSvechnikov notched an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Wild.
ImpactSvechnikov missed a game Saturday versus the Kings but has been able to handle middle-six minutes over the last two contests. The 24-year-old winger has five points over his last six outings and a total of 17 goals, 38 points, 151 shots on net, 106 hits, 38 PIM and a minus-5 rating across 54 appearances this season. Svechnikov is on track to return to the 20-goal mark after missing it in 2023-24, and he should also be able to top 50 points for the fourth straight year.

Marat Khusnutdinov - Garners assist ThursdayKhusnutdinov logged an assist and two blocked shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Hurricanes.
ImpactKhusnutdinov has two points and a plus-3 rating over his last five outings. The Wild are a little thin at forward, but the 22-year-old remains in a bottom-six role for now, as the team's center depth hasn't been impacted as heavily as the wings. Khusnutdinov is up to six points, 27 shots on net, 37 hits, 31 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 52 appearances. It's unlikely he'll produce offense at a fantasy-relevant level for redraft formats in 2024-25.

Jared Spurgeon - Slides helper in winSpurgeon logged an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Hurricanes.
ImpactSpurgeon continues to look good in a second-pairing role since his return from a lower-body injury. He's earned five points over eight contests since rejoining the lineup. For the season, the 35-year-old defenseman has 18 points, 71 shots on net, 68 blocked shots, 31 hits and a plus-4 rating over 40 outings. He won't add a lot of physicality, but his offense makes him a solid depth blueliner in fantasy.

Zach Bogosian - Draws helper ThursdayBogosian earned an assist, three hits and two PIM in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Hurricanes.
ImpactBogosian has just two helpers over his last 11 games. The 34-year-old filled a larger role while the Wild were dealing with numerous injuries on defense, but the team is at full health on the blue line again, leaving Bogosian to play on the third pairing. The veteran has 12 points, 58 shots on net, 59 hits, 61 blocked shots, 33 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 55 appearances this season.

Jonas Brodin - Earns helper ThursdayBrodin logged an assist in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Hurricanes.
ImpactThis was Brodin's second game back from a lower-body injury that cost him 12 contests. The Wild have been cautious with the 31-year-old blueliner -- he is averaging 22:56 of ice time per game this season, but he hasn't broke 19 minutes in either of his two appearances since returning to action. Brodin has 17 points, 54 shots on net, 69 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating through 33 outings. With both of Brock Faber and Jared Spurgeon healthy, it's unlikely Brodin will see much power-play time.
