Point scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Point kept the Lightning within two goals with his third-period tally, but they couldn't catch up. The 27-year-old has scored in three straight games since the end of his four-game point drought. The center is up to 28 tallies, 30 assists, 154 shots on net and a minus-14 rating through 57 appearances this season. That's a good enough pace to top 80 points for the third time in his career, but he's trailing last year's 95-point pace by a noticeable margin.

Point scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-3 win over Colorado on Thursday. He fired four shots.
EDGE Analysis
He was in the right place at the right time on the goal. Samuel Girard attempted a clearing attempt late in the first period that deflected off Point and past Justus Annunen. The points were Point's first in five games. He remains firmly in second place in team scoring with 56 points, although he sits 37 points behind team and NHL leader Nikita Kucherov (93).

Point has no points in three games since the All-Star break.
EDGE Analysis
Point has six shots, but nothing to show for it. But we're not worried. After a five-game point drought in early December, Point roared off on a six-game scoring streak that included four goals and four assists. He'll be back on the score sheet soon enough. On the season, Point has 54 points, including 25 goals, 143 shots and 165 face-off wins. His 43.8 winning percentage at the dot is a strange blight on his stat sheet after posting seasons of 51.0 and 50.7 over the last two years. There's no obvious reason, other than perhaps overuse -- Point is averaging 20:24 this season, which is 1:20 more than his career mark.

Point scored two goals Saturday in a 6-3 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
His first goal came at 13:52 of the third period when he intercepted a pass and wired a shot from the slot that Vitek Vanacek couldn't stop. Point's second goal went into the empty net. He heads into the All-Star break on a four-game, seven point scoring streak (four goals, three assists). The rest will do him some good,

Point scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-3 win over the Coyotes on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
He put the Bolts up 2-1 at the end of the first period with a shot from the left circle. Point also added a power-play assist. He's on a three-game, five-point scoring streak (two goals, three assists). Point sits 15th in the NHL with 52 points, but his minus-12 is the worst in that category in the top-35 scorers. That may not mean anything for some managers, but it's a real drag on some fantasy teams.

Point scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old opened the scoring less than two minutes into the first period, tipping home a Max Crozier shot-pass that was headed wide of the net. Point has three multi-point performances in the last eight games, piling up five goals and five helpers during that stretch. With 50 points in 48 games on the season, he's on track to top 80 for the third time in his career.

Point scored a goal and put up two assists in Thursday's 7-3 rout of Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Point has three multi-point games in his last 12 contests, racking up a combined seven goals and five assists, including four power-play points, over that stretch. The 27-year-old Calgary native is firmly cemented in both a first-line role and as part of the No. 1 power-play unit. At his current rate, Point should crest the 90-point threshold for the second consecutive season and the third time in his NHL career.

Point scored twice in 7-3 loss to the Bruins on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Point gave the Bolts a 1-0 lead just 21 seconds into the contest, finishing off Nikita Kucherov's pass from behind the net. And then he took a pass from Kucherov in the low slot and wired it past Linus Ullmark late in the second to cut the lead to 4-3. Point's quiet streak may be over. He now has four points, including three goals, in his last four games.

Point has just two points in his last six games after failing to get on the score sheet in Thursday's 4-1 win over Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
It's a bit of a slump, but Point is too good to stay down for long. He has 17 shots in that six-game span, so he's getting his chances. Point has 40 points in 40 games, but with just 17 goals, there's no way he's going to come close to his 51-goal 2022-23.

Point had two goals and an assist in a 5-4 win over Vegas on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Point has eight points (four goals, four assists) on his current six-game point streak. He is squarely in the NHL's top-20 scorers with 38 (16 goals, 22 assists) in 34 games. One of the snipes came on the power play, which snapped a 12-game power-play point slump for the creative pivot. Interestingly, it was also Point's first multi-point game in the same span. Fingers crossed this is the monkey off his back.
