Staal snapped a four-game pointless drought with an assist Sunday against the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Staal continues to see monster minutes this season, averaging 19:41 centering the Canes' second line, yet he has only four points to show for it. Staal flirted with the 50-point mark last season (20 goals, 28 assists), but will be in tough to duplicate those numbers if he doesn't get things going soon. Pound for pound, Staal is one of the better two-way centers in the game, but it's hard to carry a mediocre supporting cast on your back each and every night. Use with caution.
