Guentzel had a goal and an assist in a 5-3 victory over the Islanders on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel has eight points (four goals, four assists) over his past five games. It was his 37th goal of the season, putting him within three of equaling his career mark of 40. Guentzel achieved that plateau in 2021-22 and 2018-19. He sits second on the Lightning with 37 goals this season, one behind Brayden Point (38), and he's tied with Kyle Connor for fourth overall in the league.

Guentzel scored twice in an 8-0 win over Utah on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel got the Bolts first goal just 1:30 into the game when he chipped the puck past Karel Vejmelka from the low slot. His second came on the power play late in the second frame. Guentzel has six points, including three goals, and 11 shots in his last four games and 36 goals overall. He has put up four straight 70-point seasons (84, 73, 77 and 70).

Guentzel had a goal and two assists in a 6-4 loss to Utah on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel has 34 goals and 33 assists (187 shots) in 68 games in his first year with the Bolts. He's now within one goal of tying Dino Ciccarelli (35; 1996-97) for the second-most goals by a player in his first season with Tampa Bay. It would take a real push for him to best Brian Bradley, who tops the list with 42 (1992-93), but never say never.

Guentzel scored a power-play goal into an empty net, took five shots on goal, blocked four shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Monday's 2-0 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel had gone four games without a point since his March 6 hat trick versus the Sabres. The 30-year-old winger had not gone more than two contests without a point prior to that stretch, as he's been consistent and effective in a top-six role throughout the season. He's up to 33 goals, 31 helpers, 177 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating through 66 appearances.

Guentzel scored a hat trick in the second period of a 6-5 win over the Sabres on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel has put up points in three straight games (five goals, two assists; 12 shots). He's played well this season, and he has 32 goals and 31 assists in 61 games. But prior to this recent run, Guentzel had done 32 games without a multi-goal game. He still produced points -- he had 28 in that span. But snipers often snipe in bunches, and he hasn't. But that's perfectly fine with Guentzel's consistent production.

Guentzel scored two goals and added an assist in a 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel pushed the Bolts up 3-1 early in the second period with an easy, backdoor tap-in; the goal stood as the winner. His second went into an empty net. The goals were Guentzel's first in eight games. The sniper is now one goal from recording his fourth-straight 30-goal season and fifth of this career.

Guentzel tallied an assist and took two shots on target in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel cashed in a secondary helper on Brayden Point's goal in the third period. The 30-year-old Guentzel has 30 assists, 57 points and 153 shots on net in 59 appearances this season. His point total is tied for 33rd in the league and is fourth on the Lightning. With five points in his last six contests, he'll likely be a steady contributor offensively for the rest of the season while skating on Tampa Bay's top line and power-play unit. He is near the pace needed to reach his point total of 77 from a season ago, which was the second-highest mark of his career. He is a must start in all fantasy formats for the foreseeable future.

Guentzel has two assists in four games since the 4 Nations Face-Off.

EDGE Analysis

The sniper has been stuck at 27 goals since Feb. 6, and he has just two goals in his last 12 games. Guentzel will get his goals -- he's a prolific finisher. Snipers put goals up in bunches, so expect an outburst soon enough.

Guentzel scored two goals in Team USA's 3-1 win Saturday over Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off in Montreal.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel's first goal came on a low shot from the left circle at the midway point of the first period that went under Jordan Binnington's pad. It was a soft goal for the Canadian netminder to allow, and it tied the game at 1-1. Guentzel's second goal was an empty-netter. The winger was named the Player of the Game for his performance, and he now has three goals in two games in the tournament.

Guentzel scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in a 6-1 USA win over Finland at the 4 Nations Face-Off in Montreal.

EDGE Analysis

Guentzel's goal came in the third, 11 seconds after Matthew Tkachuk had pushed the USA up 3-1 on the power play. He scored on the rush from the left circle off a pass from Auston Matthews. The two goals in 11 seconds tied an NHL international tourney record (1991 Canada Cup) for fastest consecutive goals scored by the same team. Guentzel, 30, is the only player on Team USA with no international experience, but his speed, pace and sniping are excellent complements to a strong USA squad. Nice game, Mr. Guentzel.
