EDGE Analysis

Byram helped out on the first and third goals of Nathan MacKinnon's hat trick Wednesday. In his last two games, Byram has picked up four helpers -- he had just one assist in his first seven playoff contests. Samuel Girard (chest) being out has allowed Byram to take on a larger role, and he's looked solid so far, at least on the scoring side of the ledger.

Byram hasn't appeared in an NHL contest since Jan. 10 versus Seattle due to a head injury, but he recently drew into two games with AHL Colorado during a brief conditioning stint.

EDGE Analysis

Byram played in two games for the Eagles on Friday and Saturday in which he recorded one shot, two PIM and a plus-1 rating.
