Stepan registered an assist and three shots in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Hurricanes.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan snapped a six-game point drought with the assist. The veteran center is up to 22 points, 123 shots on goal and a minus-5 rating through 56 contests. The Minnesota native skated only 12:59 on Thursday and could continue to see his role decrease if he doesn't pick up the pace on offense.

Stepan posted three assists, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan assisted Phil Kessel in the first period and added helpers on goals by Lawson Crouse and Taylor Hall in the third. It's the first three-point game of the season for the center, who is up to 21 points, 107 shots and a minus-2 rating in 49 games. He's found the scoresheet in six of his last eight outings, which suggests Stepan's year-plus-long drop in productivity may be near its end.

Stepan had a goal and four shots in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins. He also went 12 for 20 (60 percent) in the faceoff circle.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan gave the Coyotes a 3-2 lead midway through the third period, potting his eighth of the year. The veteran center is in the midst of his most productive stretch of the season, having collected two goals and four assists in seven games since New Year's Even. Still, he only has 18 points in 48 games on the year and is no longer the reliable 50-point man he was during the bulk of his time with the Rangers.

Stepan (hand) will play in Tuesday's game versus the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan was considered a game-time decision after injuring his hand during Monday's practice, but it's not serious enough to keep him out of the cross-conference clash. The 29-year-old will center the third line and work on the second power-play unit, and he'll look to extend his current three-game point streak.

Stepan (hand) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's matchup with Florida, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

If Stepan's unable to go, Michael Grabner will likely draw into the lineup against the Panthers. Confirmation on the 29-year-old pivot's status should surface once the Coyotes take the ice for pregame warmups.

Stepan exited Monday's practice early after sustaining a hand injury, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports. Head coach Rick Tocchet called it a "freak accident."

EDGE Analysis

At this time, Stepan's status for Tuesday's game versus the Panthers can be considered questionable, and hopefully, there will be another update following Tuesday's morning skate. Stepan has worked on the third line lately but was starting to heat up with four points over the last three games. If he's unable to go, Michael Grabner will likely enter the lineup if Barrett Hayton isn't back from World Juniors yet.

Stepan scored an empty-net goal and added an assist in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan's tally came while the Coyotes were shorthanded, good for his first point in that situation this season. The center is up to 16 points (seven scores, nine helpers) in 44 appearances. He's picked up a goal and three assists during a three-game point streak -- perhaps the 29-year-old is setting himself up for a big second half.

Stepan picked up an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan earned the secondary assist on Nick Schmaltz's empty-net goal. The helper snapped a five-game point drought for the center, who has just 13 points in 42 games this year. He's added 89 shots on goal and a minus-6 rating.

Stepan netted a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan's goal came in the second period, putting the Coyotes ahead 2-1 at the time. Offense has been hard to come by for the 29-year-old this season -- he's at six tallies and 12 points in 36 games. Stepan has 76 shots on goal, so it's not for a lack of trying, but he's on pace for the worst campaign of his career.

Stepan collected a power-play assist, five shots on goal and two PIM in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Stepan got the puck to Phil Kessel, who jammed in a late goal to produce the final score. Stepan has continued to be streaky this season, as his assist Tuesday snapped a four-game dry spell. He's at 11 points and 70 shots in 33 games -- he would fail to crack 30 points for the first time in his career if that pace holds all year.
