Danault scored a goal, assisted on another and won 11 of 15 faceoffs in Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

The pair of points ended an 11-game skid in which Danault had failed to find the scoresheet while posting a minus-6 rating. Not coincidentally, he skated a season-high 15:24 in this one. That's no accident, as Danault has been elevated to a more featured role by default thanks to the injuries suffered by Alex Galchenyuk and David Desharnais.
