Caufield scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Utah.
EDGE Analysis
Caufield has scored in seven of his last nine games while adding three assists in that span. More recently, he has three multi-point efforts over his last four contests. The 24-year-old winger was excellent throughout the first half of the campaign and is showing no signs of slowing down. He's at 24 goals -- four off his career high -- while adding 18 assists, 128 shots on net, 35 hits, 14 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 43 appearances. This is likely to be a career year for Caufield as long as he stays healthy.

Caufield scored a goal on six shots, assisted on a goal and blocked one shot in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over Washington.
EDGE Analysis
January is not a dry month for Caufield, who's scored in five straight contests, including four since New Year's Day. The Capitals left him open at the corner of the net, and Caufield pocketed a feed from Juraj Slafkovsky to tie the game at 1-1 early in the second period. He later assisted on Nick Suzuki's OT winner. The top-line forward is up to 23 goals and 17 assists through 41 outings.

Caufield scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
The 24-year-old wasted little time extending his goal streak to four games, as Caufield snapped a shot past Kevin Lankinen from the slot just 67 seconds into the first period. Caufield hasn't gone back-to-back games without getting onto the scoresheet since early November, an impressive run of consistency, and he's racked up five goals and 13 points over the last 12 contests. He already has 22 goals through 40 appearances on the season, leaving him just six tallies shy of reaching the career-best 28 he scored in 2023-24.

Caufield had two assists, four shots on net, four hits and two PIM in Monday's 5-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Caufield has seven assists over his last five outings, giving him 13 assists along with 17 goals. The four hits were a season high, but physicality typically isn't part of his game. Caufield remains the team leader in tallies but has gone a season-long seven games (17 shots) without one. The normally productive first line has slumped of late with just three goals over the last nine games.

Caufield logged a power-play assist, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Friday's 4-3 win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Caufield's numbers are evening out a bit -- after being almost nothing but goals early on, he's now racked up five helpers over the last five games without scoring in that span. His latest assist was on a Patrik Laine tally in the third period Friday. Caufield has been excellent overall with 17 goals, 13 assists, 87 shots on net, 28 hits and a minus-4 rating through 32 appearances, and 10 of his 30 points have come on the power play. He should have no trouble staying in a top-line role.
