Brandon Hagel notched the decisive goal for the Tampa Bay Lightning in their recent 5-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators, marking his second consecutive game with a go-ahead score. The Lightning swept their two-game series against Ottawa, moving into a tie for third in the Atlantic Division. Joining Hagel on the scoresheet were Jake Guentzel, Brayden Point, Mitchell Chaffee, and Erik Cernak, while Andrei Vasilevskiy made 27 saves. Michael Amadio scored the lone goal for the Senators, who saw Anton Forsberg turn away 26 shots.

The game saw Guentzel open the scoring with a power play goal, leading to a tie when Amadio redirected a shot from Thomas Chabot. However, Hagel's breakaway goal restored the Lightning's lead before Point and Cernak sealed the win with their contributions. Despite a missed power play opportunity that could have shifted momentum, the Lightning held off a 2-on-1 rush against Vasilevskiy, showcasing their defensive strength. The Lightning have an impressive record of 7-1-1 at home in their last nine games and will look to build on this as they head towards their next challenges against Detroit.

DraftKings players are focusing on key goalies as they prepare for matchups in the NHL. Anton Forsberg of the Ottawa Senators is one to watch, coming off impressive performances with a total of 35.4 fantasy points in two recent games. His matchup against the Washington Capitals, a team that has seen a series of low-scoring games, could provide him with significant save opportunities.

Another goalie making waves is Arvid Soderblom from the Chicago Blackhawks, who has averaged 22.6 fantasy points in his last three games. Despite the challenge of facing the Carolina Hurricanes, Soderblom's recent form makes him a strong candidate for starting in fantasy leagues.

Lastly, Marc-Andre Fleury from the Minnesota Wild enters with solid momentum, having contributed to a low goals-against average in recent games. With two straight wins, Fleury looks poised for a high-scoring night as the Wild take on the Montreal Canadiens, making him a viable starting option on DraftKings.

In a dominant performance, the Boston Bruins secured a 2-0 victory over the Ottawa Senators, thanks to Joonas Korpisalo's stellar 29-save shutout against his former team. David Pastrnak provided a key assist for Morgan Geekie's opening goal early in the second period, before sealing the victory with an empty-net goal.
