Rodrigues scored a goal and added an assist in a 5-1 win over Toronto on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The goal came shorthanded; it was his the first shortie of his NHL career (604 games). Rodrigues also made it into the franchise record book. He had seven shots in the first first period, which was the most by a Florida player in a first period since the great Pavel Bure had nine on March 16, 2001. Rodrigues has four points (two goals, two assists) and 20 shots in his last four games.

Rodrigues scored a goal Monday in a 5-3 loss to Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
It was his first goal in 11 games. Rodrigues is completely overmatched as Florida's top pivot -- Sam Bennett left Monday's game with an upper-body injury, and the kitties are already missing Anton Lundell (upper body), Aleksander Barkov (knee) and Tomas Nosek (knee) down the middle, and Brad Marchand (undisclosed) on the wing. Rodrigues has a point (one goal, one assist) in each of his last two games, but just three assists in the 10 games before Monday.

Rodrigues logged two assists, four shots on goal, two hits, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues logged his first multi-point effort since Dec. 19 versus the Hurricanes. His performance Sunday ended a six-game skid on offense for the center, who has recently moved up to the top line in an effort to spark his offense. Rodrigues has a total of 23 points, 117 shots on net, 30 PIM, 51 hits, 21 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 51 appearances. He's best utilized as a depth forward in fantasy.

Rodrigues scored a power-play goal, placed two shots on net and served two PIM in Saturday's 3-2 win over Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues lit the lamp on a first-period power play to level the score at one apiece. He now has nine goals, 21 points, 98 shots on net and 46 hits through 44 games this season. After fading to offensive inconsistency over the past month, he has points in back-to-back games for the first time since early December. Centering a middle-six role, the 32-year-old has plenty of time to reach the 30-point mark, which would secure his fourth consecutive campaign above that threshold. With a decent amount of category coverage, Rodrigues has viability in deep fantasy leagues.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old forward is up to eight goals, 10 helpers, 78 shots on net, 36 hits, 16 PIM and a plus-2 rating across 34 contests.
