Palmieri had two assists and four shots in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Hurricanes.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran right winger set up even-strength goals by Mathew Barzal and Anders Lee, displaying good chemistry on New York's top line that combined for four points and eight shots. Palmieri struggled offensively after being acquired from New Jersey at last year's trade deadline, producing just two goals and two assists in 17 games, but he came alive in the playoffs and scored seven times in 19 contests.
