EDGE Analysis

Schmidt helped out on Nikolaj Ehlers' opening tally Sunday. This was Schmidt's second straight game with an assist, and he's picked up five points in 10 outings in March. The 30-year-old rearguard has 31 points, 96 shots on net, 87 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating in 62 appearances. He was shuffled down to the third pairing Sunday, but he'll likely continue to see top-four minutes regardless of his defense partner.
