Hunter Haight - Up from AHL Haight was called up from AHL Iowa on Sunday.

Impact Haight has three goals and five points in six appearances with Iowa this season. Although the 22-year-old has been demonstrating his offensive abilities in the minors, he might be limited to a bottom-six capacity if he draws into Minnesota's lineup.

Jet Greaves - Posts 29-save shutout Greaves stopped all 29 shots he faced in Saturday's 1-0 overtime win over the Rangers.

Impact Greaves bounced back impressively after surrendering 11 goals across his previous four appearances, earning his first shutout of the season while posting his second-highest save total of the season. The 25-year-old netminder also helped Columbus kill all three New York power plays, providing a much-needed improvement following the team's recent defensive struggles. While his early-season inconsistency remains a concern, Saturday's performance offers encouragement for fantasy managers relying on him for starts and wins.

Kent Johnson - Nets overtime winner Johnson scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 1-0 overtime win over the Rangers.

Impact Johnson has scored in three consecutive games, bringing his season total to a team-leading four goals, and he's cracked the scoresheet in all but one of his six appearances to date. The 24-year-old winger is enjoying an excellent start to the season, and while this scoring pace is unsustainable, his numbers and overall involvement on offense have been encouraging for fantasy managers. Set in the first line on both even-strength and power-play situations, Johnson should continue to have ample opportunities to keep scoring.
