McMichael scored 26 goals across 82 regular-season appearances. While his decrease in production down the stretch was a concern for fantasy managers heading into the playoffs -- he recorded just one goal in his final 12 regular-season contests -- this might be the spark he needs to remain productive as a top-six forward and member of the second power-play unit.

EDGE Analysis

McMichael snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. The 24-year-old forward has found himself on the fourth line recently, as the Capitals are easing Ryan Leonard in with top-six usage at even strength. McMichael's usage in reality is more versatile, especially thanks to his power-play role. He's faded a little bit late in the campaign but still has 55 points (25 goals, 30 assists), 167 shots on net, 38 hits, 33 blocked shots, 47 PIM and a plus-25 rating over 76 contests. He could get back into the top six if Aliaksei Protas (lower body) is unable to play Sunday against the Islanders.

He is currently skating on Washington's second line and top power-play unit. This season is the first time McMichael has reached the 50-point mark, and he has plenty of time to add to his career year. He has great fantasy value down the stretch and is a great name to roster in all standard-size leagues.
