Spezza notched a goal and an assist in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

After not registering a point in the Leafs opener Wednesday night, Spezza gave the team life on the power-play after being down three goals entering the third period. He also added an assist on a Nylander power-play goal just five minutes later and provided three shots in the contest. The 38-year-old has started the season on the Leafs first power-play unit due to Auston Matthews' wrist injury and will continue to play there as long as the superstar forward remains out.

Spezza signed a one-year contract extension with the Maple Leafs on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Spezza was a fantastic bottom-six contributor for Toronto this season, racking up 10 goals and 30 points through 54 contests. The 38-year-old forward will continue to occupy a bottom-six role with the Maple Leafs in 2021-22, but he should also see plenty of usage with the man advantage.

Spezza produced an assist in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Canadiens in Game 7.

EDGE Analysis

Spezza had the secondary helper on William Nylander's lone tally in the third period. The 37-year-old Spezza finished the seven-game series with three goals and two helpers despite playing in a bottom-six role. He added 12 shots on net, 10 hits and a plus-3 rating.

Spezza scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Canadiens in Game 6.

Spezza sparked the Maple Leafs' comeback with his goal at 11:35 of the third period. The 37-year-old forward has racked up four points, 11 shots on net, nine hits and a plus-3 rating through six playoff contests. He's been effective in a fourth-line role that's also seen him draw some power-play time on the second unit.

Spezza picked up a goal and an assist with two shots in Tuesday's 4-0 victory over the Canadiens in Game 4.

EDGE Analysis

Spezza put Toronto on top 2-0 with 7:32 left in the second period, driving to the net on a 2-on-1 and finishing off a tape-to-tape dish from Alex Galchenyuk. Just over two minutes latter, Spezza set up a Joe Thornton power-play goal to send the Maple Leafs into the second intermission with a 3-0 lead. The 37-year-old Spezza has two goals and assist in the series, adding nine shots and four PIM with a plus-3 rating.

Spezza scored a goal on a team-leading five shots and added two hits in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canadiens in Game 2.

EDGE Analysis

In what was a weird play all around, Zach Bogosian got in on the forecheck and set up Spezza as he got off the bench and into the zone. Spezza struck for the goal at 12:25 of the first period, and it was all Maple Leafs after that. The 37-year-old forward had 30 points in 54 regular-season outings despite averaging only 11:02 per game. The Toronto native will likely fill a similar bottom-six role, although power-play time could boost his fantasy value.

Spezza managed an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Spezza has been productive lately with a goal and six helpers in his last seven outings. The 37-year-old is up to 29 points, 77 shots on net and a plus-3 rating in 51 games. It's been a mildly resurgent year for the veteran center -- he has a chance to reach the 30-point mark for the first time since 2016-17.

Spezza had two assists and two shots in a 4-1 victory over Montreal on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 37-year-old set up insurance tallies by Jake Muzzin and Adam Brooks to help the Maple Leafs pull away over the final two periods. Spezza has four points over his last three games, matching his longest point streak of the season. He'll look to make it four in a row Thursday against Vancouver.

Spezza scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 5-3 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

After a quiet first period for both teams, Spezza gave the Maple Leafs a 1-0 lead 3:10 into the second. The 37-year-old forward has a goal and an assist in his last three games. He's seeing everyday usage in a bottom-six role this year, and he's collected 21 points (nine goals, 12 helpers), 56 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 38 appearances.

Spezza picked up an assist and scored the shootout winner in Friday's 2-1 victory over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran set up the Leafs' only goal in regulation, then showed great patience in scoring the only tally of the shootout, settling down a rolling puck before getting Connor Hellebuyck to sprawl with a couple dekes and calmly slotting it home inside the post. Spezza hasn't had a multi-point performance in a month, managing only three goals and five points over the last 13 games, but at 37 years old he still has a few tricks up his sleeve.
