Point had one shot in 18:40 of ice time in Sunday's 6-0 loss to Carolina.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Jon Cooper had benched Point, Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov for the third period of Saturday's loss to Buffalo because they weren't performing well enough to give the team the best chance to win. While they were back in action Sunday, none of them could get rolling because of a parade to the penalty box. The Bolts are on a five-game losing streak heading into a four-game week, and Point will be key to breaking the skid.

Point scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
He spoiled Sergei Bobrovsky's shutout bid midway through the second period by tapping home a slick feed from Steven Stamkos, but it was just about the only bright spot on the night for the Bolts. Point has found the back of the net in five straight games, and over his last 14 contests he's piled up 10 tallies and 21 points. The 26-year-old has already reached 70 points on the season, and he sits just three goals short of his second career 40-goal campaign.

Point notched an assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Point had a five-game point streak snapped Saturday in Dallas, but it didn't take him long to get back on the scoresheet. He set up a Nikita Kucherov tally in the second period that got the Lightning on the board. Point is up to 32 goals, 28 helpers, 162 shots on net and a plus-7 rating through 53 outings. This is the fourth 60-point campaign of his career, and it's possible a strong finish to the season could see him challenge his career high of 92 from 2018-19.

His point streak sits at five games and 10 points (five goals, five assists).
