Rodrigues posted an assist, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Lightning in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues helped the Panthers get a positive start, assisting on a Matthew Tkachuk goal just 2:43 into the game. That was all for their offense in this contest. Rodrigues snapped a three-game point drought with the helper. He has added five shots on net, seven hits and an even plus-minus rating across three playoff outings while filling a middle-six role.

Rodrigues scored a power-play goal in a 4-1 win over Detroit on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues took a pass in the left circle and drove the net to stuff it past Cam Talbot. It was his first goal in 18 games (2 assists). Rodrigues has 30 points (15 goals, 15 assists) in 79 games this season. It's his fourth consecutive season that he's hit that mark. Rodrigues is a third-line winger who chips in occasionally and sees time on PP2, but there's more value in his ice game than his fantasy game.

Rodrigues logged an assist, four shots on goal and three hits in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues ended an eight-game point drought with a helper on a Seth Jones tally in the first period. The 31-year-old Rodrigues has mostly played in a middle-six role lately, but it hasn't helped him produce steady offense. He's at 28 points, 142 shots on net, 109 hits, 32 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 70 appearances, putting him on pace for his lowest-scoring season in four years.

Rodrigues scored a goal on five shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
The Panthers' second line of Rodrigues, Sam Bennett and Mackie Samoskevich combined for two goals and five points in the win. Rodrigues' tally stretched the lead to 2-0 late in the second period. This ended a stretch where he had one assist over six games, and it was his first multi-point effort since Dec. 5 against the Flyers. For the season, the 31-year-old forward has 14 goals, 27 points, 127 shots on net, 90 hits, 30 PIM and an even plus-minus rating through 61 outings in a middle-six role.

Rodrigues was held without a point but recorded eight shots on goal in 13:33 of ice time in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
As was evidenced during last year's Stanley Cup Final that saw him post four goals and seven points in the seven-game series, Rodrigues can be a streaky player. That's been the case this year, and he's currently on the downturn, as he's recorded one point over his last six games. However, despite seeing his fewest minutes in his last 11 appearances Thursday, the 31-year-old blew past his previous season high with eight shots on goal, perhaps signaling one of his hot streaks could be on the way. Considering his role as a top-six forward, Rodrigues is definitely an option for fantasy managers looking for a high-ceiling add down the stretch.

Rodrigues scored a goal and took two shots on net in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues lit the lamp late in the third period to tie the game at three apiece. The 31-year-old forward now has 13 goals, 24 points, and 99 shots on net across 54 games this season. He has seen an increasing amount of power-play time over the past month on Florida's first unit. With four goals over his last seven games, Rodrigues is a name to keep an eye on in deeper leagues and can continue to benefit from Florida's recent quality of play.

Rodrigues scored a goal on three shots and added four PIM in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues has five goals and an assist over his last 11 outings, though his tally Saturday ended a three-game dry spell. The 31-year-old forward continues to handle a middle-six role in a strong offense, giving him some appeal as a depth forward in fantasy. He's at 12 goals, 23 points, 97 shots, 79 hits, 28 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 53 contests this season.

Rodrigues scored a power-play goal in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues has four goals and an assist over his last seven outings. He also saw a season-low 9:24 of ice time -- that's likely a byproduct of his current deployment on the fourth line rather than in a more prominent spot in the lineup. The 31-year-old is too talented to be in that role indefinitely. For the season, he's at 22 points (five on the power play) with 91 shots on net, 73 hits and a minus-4 rating through 49 appearances. Rodrigues is best utilized as a middle-six forward, but he'll be tough to trust in fantasy if he's not getting enough playing time.

Rodrigues scored a goal on two shots, blocked three shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues has done well in a bottom-six role recently, earning three goals and an assist over his last six games. The 31-year-old will never be a leading scorer, but he can provide solid depth offense and a little grit to boot. He's up to 10 goals, 21 points, 90 shots on net, 72 hits, 24 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 48 appearances.

Rodrigues scored a goal on three shots and added four PIM in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Rodrigues has two goals and an assist over his last four outings. Despite that production, he's been sliding down the lineup, with a fourth-line assignment and just 11:30 of ice time in Thursday's defeat. The Panthers' offense as a whole has been a little inconsistent lately, leading to head coach Paul Maurice trying different things with his forward combinations. Rodrigues is up to 20 points, 85 shots on net, 71 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 46 appearances.
