Kunitz will look to extend his point streak to five games Friday against the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

A point Friday would match his longest streak since December of 2013. The besieged forward has seven points (1G, 6A) and a plus-6 rating in his last four games. He also has delivered 49 hits in his last 11 tilts. While Kunitz's best days are behind him, he's playing well right now on a line with Sidney Crosby and Beau Bennett. The hasty retirement of Pascal Dupuis also gives him a little bit more slack as a top-six forward -- providing he maintains his strong play.
