Kreider is now riding a four-game point streak, scoring four goals and one assist over that span.

Noah Dobson - Distributes two helpersDobson recorded two assists and four blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Rangers.
ImpactDobson assisted on two of the goals in the first period for his 59th and 60th assist on the season. The 24-year-old defenseman is now on a modest three-game point streak, scoring two goals and two assists over that span. With 70 points in 78 games played, Dobson has emerged as a legitimate top-tier fantasy defenseman, offering a rare combination of offensive upside and strong peripheral categories.

Bo Horvat - Two points in winHorvat picked up a goal and one assist in a 4-2 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.
ImpactHorvat registered the primary assist on the opening score and then put the second goal of the game - his 33rd of the year - into the back of the net 11:47 into the first period. In his past five games, Horvat has four goals and an assist in addition to 18 shots on net. Horvat has overcome a rough start and is flourishing on the Islanders' top line. His recent performance and strong finish to the season make him a valuable fantasy option. Moving forward, his long-term contract and improved production solidify him as a reliable center with upside in the future.

Igor Shesterkin - Can't stop IslandersShesterkin allowed three goals on 28 shots in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Islanders. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.
ImpactShesterkin and the Rangers dug themselves in a hole that they could not get out of early in the first period, as the Islanders sniped three markers to take a lead that they would not relinquish. The 28-year-old netminder finished with an .893 save percentage - it was the sixth time in his last 10 games that he finished with a save percentage below .900. The Rangers only have three games left on the season until the playoffs and will face the Flyers on Thursday.
