Gagner recorded an assist in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Gagner set up Joe Veleno's goal at 19:13 of the third period, which made things interesting at the end of the game. The assist was Gagner's second in his last four games, but he went 11 contests without a point prior to his return to offense recently. The 32-year-old forward remains in a bottom-six role that doesn't lead to much offense. He has 15 points, 75 shots on net, 24 PIM and a minus-7 rating in 47 contests -- that matches his point total from 42 appearances last season despite a reduced role.
