McBain signed a five-year, $21.25 million contract with the Mammoth on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
McBain is locked in with the Mammoth on a long-term, five-year deal to avoid arbitration. The 25-year-old had 13 goals and 14 assists in 82 games last season, but offense isn't where he delivers the most value. He's a physical presence in a middle-six role, delivering 291 hits last year, and he will look to continue that moving forward from a similar spot in the lineup.

McBain logged two power-play assists, two shots on goal and four hits in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
McBain helped out on goals by Sean Durzi and Josh Doan in the second period. With five points over his last five games, McBain has found some success on offense late in the season. His effort Saturday earned him a career year with 27 points (13 goals, 14 helpers), including three on the power play. He's added 89 shots on net, 287 hits, 50 blocked shots, 78 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 80 appearances in a middle-six role.

McBain notched an assist, four shots on goal and four hits in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
McBain's earned three points over five outings in April. The 25-year-old remains in a third-line role, and his offense has often been limited to depth contributions in 2024-25. He's at 13 goals, 12 assists, 87 shots, 283 hits, 49 blocked shots, 78 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 79 appearances. He has up to three more games to match his point total from each of the last two seasons (26).

McBain scored a power-play goal, dished an assist and added four hits in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
McBain had gone 10 games without a goal and also ended a five-game stretch without a point. That's life on the third line for the 25-year-old, who has done fine as a depth scorer but hasn't posted a point streak of more than three contests all season. He's at 13 goals, 24 points, 80 shots on net, 271 hits, 78 PIM and a plus-6 rating over 76 appearances. His goal was the first power-play point of his career.

McBain produced an assist, four hits and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
McBain has four points over his last eight outings, as well as 29 hits in that span. He continues to bring some heavy play to a third-line role, though he can also chip in a bit of depth scoring from time to time. This season, he has 21 points, 76 shots on net, 238 hits, 68 PIM and a plus-5 rating over 69 appearances.

McBain scored a goal, added five hits and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
McBain snapped an eight-game goal drought with the opening tally at 11:03 of the first period. The 25-year-old forward has served on a checking line with Lawson Crouse and Josh Doan recently, but all three players can chip in a bit of offense as well. McBain has three points over his last four outings and a total of 20 points, 69 shots on net, 226 hits, 41 blocked shots, 61 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 65 appearances this season.

McBain provided an assist, two shots on goal and five hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
McBain had gone five games without a point, and he's gotten on the scoresheet in just two of 25 contests since the start of January (three points). Despite the downturn in offense, he hasn't been scratched, and he's even worked his way back onto the second power-play unit. The 25-year-old has a modest 18 points and 66 shots on net through 62 outings, but he is a physical force with 214 hits and 61 PIM to his name this season.

McBain scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, logged two hits and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
McBain entered Sunday on an 18-game point drought. The 25-year-old snapped it with a helper on Josh Doan's opening goal 1:10 into the game and then added a tally of his own later in the first period. The lack of offense has left McBain stuck in a bottom-six role most of the time, and he's been back at his natural center position recently to help cover for the absence of Logan Cooley (lower body). McBain is at 11 goals, 17 points, 59 shots on net, 192 hits, 56 PIM and a plus-1 rating through 56 appearances. He's on pace to finish right around the 26 points he recorded in each of the previous two seasons.

McBain failed to record a point over 14 games in January, adding a minus-7 rating, 16 shots on net and 60 hits.
EDGE Analysis
McBain has largely played as a winger this season, but he's been at center more often than not over the last two weeks. The 25-year-old's month-long slump has him stuck at 15 points through 51 appearances, but his spot in the lineup should be safe while Utah is missing Logan Cooley (lower body) and Dylan Guenther (lower body). McBain has added 54 shots on net, 49 PIM, 179 hits and 35 blocked shots this season -- he's a decent source of physicality for fantasy managers in deep formats who don't need to prioritize offense.

McBain scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and logged two hits in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
McBain tied the game at 1-1 in the first period, but Utah couldn't solve Stuart Skinner after that. This tally ended a 10-game goal drought for McBain, who added two assists, 15 shots on net and 39 hits in that span. The 24-year-old has maintained a second-line role recently, but that lack of production could see him head back to the bottom six if head coach Andre Tourigny mixes up his lines. McBain has 10 goals, five assists, 38 shots on net, 47 PIM, 119 hits and a plus-8 rating over 37 appearances this season.
