K. Miller - D

NYR

K'Andre Miller scored his first NHL goal in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres.

Miller's goal late in the first period made it 2-1 for the Rangers at the time. His tally came off a one-timer from the point that Sabres goalie Linus Ullmark couldn't handle. Miller finished the night with a plus-2 rating, two penalty minutes, three shots on goal and a blocked shot in 17:41 of ice time. The 21-year-old now has two points in six games in 2021. Miller is an intriguing option in deep dynasty leagues and in daily fantasy. Chris Kreider also scored for the Rangers during Tuesday night's loss.

J. Puljujarvi - F

EDM

Connor McDavid has been impressed with Jesse Puljujarvi's game since the Finn returned to the NHL after a one-year absence.

“He’s definitely different,” McDavid said after Puljujarvi's first game on the top line Sunday. “He’s adapted a little more of a grind in his game, cutting to the inside and not waiting on the outside to get the puck. His forechecking has been unbelievable. He’s moving great. I really liked his game; it was probably one of the best games I’ve ever seen him play. I really liked what he was doing out there, hopefully he can grow on that...Confidence is huge, especially for him. I’ve seen him play with confidence and I’ve seen him play without it and he’s so much better when he’s got it going on. It would be nice to see him bang one in, that would help with his confidence even further, but I’ve liked what he’s done overall.” Puljujarvi is worth a pickup as he should do well with McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on the top line.

MTL

Tyler Toffoli has claimed the NHL's first star of the week for the period ending Jan. 24.

Toffoli generated five goals and eight points in four games during that stretch to help the Canadiens post a 3-0-1 record. He posted at least one point in each outing, which included a hat trick in his first game against his former Vancouver teammates. Toffoli appears to be getting more comfortable with Montreal and he will look to carry over that momentum for the red-hot Canadiens.

There will be no further comment from either side and it appears that Ingram may not play this season. He played with Bjorkloven of Sweden's HockeyAllsvenskan this season, going 5-4 with a 2.51 GAA and a .898 save percentage. He was drafted in the third round in 2016 by Tampa Bay. We wish him the best of luck.

C. McMichael - F

WSH

Connor McMichael played 9:54 in his NHL debut Sunday.

McMichael, the Capitals first round pick and 25th overall in 2019, took a minor in the contest. He started the season by missing training camp as he was with Team Canada at the 2021 World Junior Championships and then was required to quarantine for seven days before he could hit the ice with the Capitals. “I thought he was good," coach Peter Laviolette said. "I thought it’s always a tall order jumping into a team, especially when you don’t have training camp or you come out of quarantine and have one real practice with the team. For him to jump into a competitive game like tonight, I thought he did a good job.” McMichael has blazing speed and should be in the mix for a role as a top-six player in the next couple of seasons.

E. Malkin - F

PIT

Evgeni Malkin continues to struggle through six games of the NHL season.

Malkin played only 14:23 Sunday and looked quite ordinary as he was unable to get a shot on net. “When he scores a goal or two, his confidence goes to another level and he tends to take off,” coach Mike Sullivan said via video conference. “When he doesn’t, he tends to be hard on himself because he cares so much and he wants to help the Penguins win. And he knows that’s how he can help us win. My conversations with (Malkin) to this point is just to encourage him, just to make sure he’s trying to play the game the right way and play on both sides of the puck. When he has the opportunity to shoot the puck, shoot the puck and allow his instincts to take over.” Malkin has only a goal and an assist this season but should still be in your fantasy lineup.

Mitch Marner is leading all NHL forwards in time on ice at 24:03.

Linemate Auston Matthews is fourth overall at 23:07 with Anze Kopitar (23:52) and Mark Scheifele (23:32) in between. Coach Sheldon Keefe is playing his best players a lot in the condensed schedule and it is paying off as Toronto is 5-2-0 this season and atop the North Division standings. Marner is tied for the NHL scoring lead with Kopitar and Connor McDavid as all three have 10 points.

B. Watson - G

Bubba Watson has his fair share of success at Torrey Pines and he'll make his way back this week for the Farmers Insurance Open.

The big-hitting lefty is a natural fit for a course that stretches out past 7,700 yards. It's no surprise to see a win on his Farmers resume, then, winning the 2011 edition with a four-day tally of 16-under 272. Watson has played this event nine times in total with three other top 10s to pair with the victory. More recently, he is 4-for-4 with a pair of top 10s to start the new season. He's yet to play in 2021 yet, though. There might be a little be of rust to shake off for Watson this week but on paper he's a great course fit and should still be considered in mostly fantasy formats.

Seahawks waived OT Chad Wheeler.

His career is over, as Wheeler announced on his Twitter that he's leaving football following his very public arrest after he decided to beat his girlfriend to a pulp. The 27-year-old essentially tried to kill his girlfriend (now ex) over the weekend, sending her to the hospital with a bloody and swollen face, among other injuries. Alleah, the victim, claimed Wheeler "thought I was dead on my bed and continued to eat dinner" before she got up and went to the bathroom when Wheeler replied, "Wow, you're still alive." This man needs help.

R. Sloan - G

Roger Sloan readies for his fourth appearance at the Farmers Insurance Open as he makes his way back to La Jolla, California, this week.

The 33-year-old arrives with four cuts made in eight starts this season. The highlights are a T16 at the Bermuda Championship and a T23 at The RSM Classic. Both of those are shorter venues but this week he'll see the beefy South Course at Torrey Pines which plays host of the Farmers. Sloan has lost strokes to the field in 5-of-8 rounds played at this event en route to a pair of missed cuts and a T64 (2015). On the bright side, he arrives with positive strokes gained tee-to-green in each of his last five measured events. That makes him a viable salary-saving option in DFS formats this week.

Former Cowboys and Raiders TE Jason Witten announced his retirement from the NFL after 17 seasons.

Witten, 39 in May, is signing a one-day contract with the Cowboys to retire as a member of the team he spent his first 16 years with before joining the Raiders for the 2020 season. Witten was out of the league in 2018 when he joined ESPN's Monday Night Football booth, but that was a total disaster for both sides. He came out of his hiatus for two more playing seasons and ends his Hall of Fame career with 1,228 catches for 13,046 yards and 74 touchdowns. He turned in four 1,000-yard seasons and four others of 850-plus yards, never missing a game from 2004 forward. Witten made 11 Pro Bowls and was a first-team All-Pro twice. Witten made over $76 million in the NFL.
