EDGE Analysis
Pageau got a piece of a Noah Dobson shot and tipped in the Islanders' lone goal with eight minutes left in the third period.

The center has moved down to the fourth line in recent contests with Casey Cizikas (lower body) out. Pageau has been less effective than usual with five goals, 18 points, 52 shots on net, 87 hits and 43 blocked shots through 42 appearances this season.

EDGE Analysis
After opening the scoring in the second period, Pageau picked up three points in the final frame, setting up a pair of Julien Gauthier goals before extending the Islanders' lead to 5-0 with a second tally, doubling his season total. The 31-year-old Pageau had gone eight games without a goal prior to Thursday's contest, recording just three assists in that span. He's up to four goals and 17 points through 35 games in a middle-six role this year.

Pageau scored a goal in overtime in a 3-2 win over the Kings on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
He slid a backhand five-hole on Cam Talbot just 13 seconds into overtime to lift the Isles to victory. It was Pageau's first overtime goal since Nov. 7, 2019, when he played for the Senators. His 10 points, including two goals, in 26 games don't make him much of a fantasy force, but we all love a good narrative.

Pageau earned an assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Pageau's apple puts him at 39 points (13 goals, 26 assists) on the season, matching his total from last season in nine fewer games. The Isles utilize Pageau on the power play and penalty kill, so his opportunities should remain plentiful, especially with the team currently tied with the Panthers for the first wild-card playoff spot out of the Eastern Conference.

Pageau has two goals and two assists over three games since he returned from an upper-body injury, though he's taken advantage of some favorable matchups during the Islanders' California trip.
