Rotowire
Lundell scored a goal on four shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers.
Lundell continues to absorb most of the minutes in the absence of Aleksander Barkov (illness). This was Lundell's third straight game with a goal, and he's gone plus-4 with eight PIM and eight shots on goal in that span.

It's unclear when Barkov will be back -- Lundell will be an attractive streaming and DFS option in the mean time.
