Liam O'Brien - Slumping on offense O'Brien's point drought up to 12 games after he was held off the scoresheet in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Kraken.

Impact He has four shots on net, 12 PIM and 35 hits during the slump, which also saw him scratched for four games from Jan. 5-11. O'Brien offers little offense even in the best of times, so he's not going to be a factor in many fantasy formats. For the season, he has three points, 23 shots on net, 29 PIM and 70 hits across 26 outings.

Clayton Keller - Puts up pair of helpers Keller notched two assists and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Kraken.

He set up Nate Schmidt on the game-winner at 14:30 of the third period and Lawson Crouse just 42 seconds later for an insurance tally. During the goal drought, Keller still has 10 assists, 18 shots on net and a plus-10 rating.

Barrett Hayton - Fills empty cage Hayton scored an empty-net goal on two shots in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Kraken.

Impact Hayton ended a month-long goal drought, a span in which he still chipped in six assists and a plus-7 rating over 13 games. The 25-year-old has mostly played in a middle-six role lately, as he hasn't been consistent enough to bump Nick Schmaltz from the top-line center job. Hayton is now at five goals, 14 points, 71 shots on net, 32 PIM, 22 blocked shots, 15 hits and a plus-4 rating across 44 outings.

Nick Schmaltz - Nets goal Saturday Schmaltz scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Kraken.

Impact Schmaltz's hot January continues -- he has six goals and five assists over nine outings this month. The 29-year-old put the Mammoth up 3-1 in the second period, and while that lead didn't last, the team's strong third period was enough for the win. Schmaltz is up to 18 goals, 44 points, 118 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating over 49 appearances. His career highs of 23 goals and 63 points are both likely to be bested this season if he stays healthy, and that's with him being on track for his worst power-play year since 2022-23.

Karel Vejmelka - Sharp in win Vejmelka allowed one goal on 27 shots in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Stars.

Impact Vejmelka didn't get a ton of help, but he was up to the challenge to earn his fifth straight win.

For the season, the 29-year-old netminder is up to 22-11-2 with a 2.53 GAA and a .901 save percentage over 36 outings. The Mammoth's next game is a fairly favorable home matchup against the Kraken on Saturday.
