Abdelkader was held off the scoresheet Tuesday and had a minus-1 rating on the way to a 4-3 loss to the Lightning, though he did end up with four shots, four PIM, and a pair of hits.

EDGE Analysis

Abdelkader is a Jack of all trades. If he goes cold in one area, he typically makes up for it in another -- that's the beauty of owning the two-way player in fantasy leagues, especially for those of you operating with roto scoring formats. Darren Helm left Tuesday's game with an upper-body injury, and we suspect the Red Wings would give Abdelkader more shorthanded ice time if the injury proves to be serious.
