Anthony Cirelli - Fills empty cage Cirelli scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Cirelli has three goals and three assists over his last seven outings. The 28-year-old center is up to 12 goals, 25 points, 73 shots on net and a plus-22 rating through 38 appearances this season. He's close to the pace needed to earn his second straight 50-point campaign, and he should also top the 20-goal mark if he can stay healthy and productive.

Zemgus Girgensons - Gets first goal in 19 games Girgensons scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-2 win over Colorado.

Impact It was his first goal in 19 games. Girgensons has just six goals, two assists and 98 hits in 35 games. He leads the Bolts in hits and has put up hits in all but one of those games. Girgensons plays an important on-ice role in the Bolts' bottom six, but his fantasy value is limited.

Jake Guentzel - Three-game, five-point streak Guentzel scored a power-play goal in a 4-2 win over Colorado on Tuesday.

Impact Guentzel is on a three-game, five-point scoring streak (one goal, four assists), and he has put up a power-play point in each of those games (one goal, two assists). He sits second in team scoring with 44 points (19 goals, 25 assists) in 42 games, which puts him on pace for a potential 86-point season. That would be a career mark for Guentzel, whose best year came in Pittsburgh in 2021-22.

Darren Raddysh - Among NHL's top scoring defenders Raddysh had two assists in a 4-2 win over the Avalanche on Tuesday.

Impact Raddysh has put up four straight multi-point games (four goals, five assists), and he has 13 shots and a plus-6 rating in that span. He has put up 36 points in as many games in hiis pinch-me-I'm-dreaming season. That's enough to put Raddysh in a tie with Miro Heiskanen for fifth overall from the blue line. His 12 goals put him in a three-way tie with Cale Makar and Matthew Schaefer for third overall. There's no-one who would have predicted this output from the 29-year-old undrafted defender, but he has stepped up large in the absence of Victor Hedman (elbow), who will be out until at least February.

Simon Lundmark - Called up from minors Lundmark was recalled from AHL Syracuse on Tuesday.

Impact Lundmark's figures to serve as an emergency depth option for the Bolts ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Avalanche. With the 25-year-old Swede's promotion to the NHL roster, fantasy managers can likely expect Ryan McDonagh (undisclosed) to remain on injured reserve. If Lundmark were to get into a game for Tampa, it would mark his NHL debut.

Maxim Groshev - Dropped to minors Groshev was demoted to AHL Syracuse on Monday.

Impact Groshev has been a healthy scratch for seven of his eight games on the NHL roster, tallying an assist in his lone appearance for the Bolts this year. While the team could bring another defenseman up from the minors ahead of Tuesday's clash with Colorado, the decision to reassign Groshev could be an indication that Ryan McDonagh (undisclosed) is close to returning.

Andrei Vasilevskiy - Cementing spot among NHL's best Vasilevskiy made 19 saves in a 7-3 win over the Sharks on Saturday.

Impact The game was never in doubt -- the Bolts were up 3-0 by the 6:46 mark of the first period. Pavol Regenda was Vasilevskiy's kryptonite, though -- the 26-year-old journeyman winger with 23 career NHL games scored all of the San Jose goals. It was his first career hattie. The talented netminder is on a 5-0-0 run, and he is on a personal 16-4-0 run since Oct. 26. Vasilevskiy has been excellent since he got his skates under him following a 0-3-2 run with 17 goals allowed to start the season. Overall, Vasy's 2.36 GAA and .912 save percentage are both sixth among NHL netminders with at least 16 appearances.
