Archibald snapped an 11-game point drought with his assist on James Neal's first-period marker. The 28-year-old Archibald usually produces a little more offense than he has lately. He's at nine points, 55 shots on net, 164 hits and a plus-3 rating in 44 outings, although he had topped 20 points in each of the last two campaigns.

Archibald scored a goal on his only shot and added three hits Monday in a 3-2 overtime win over Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Archibald opened the scoring just over six minutes into the game, winning a race to a loose puck and beating Michael Hutchinson five-hole on a breakaway. The goal was Archibald's fifth of the season and his first point in his last five contests. Archibald has the ability to play throughout the lineup for Edmonton, but he is best cast in his typical bottom-six and penalty-killing role, which offers minimal fantasy upside.

Archibald recorded an assist, three hits and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Archibald set up Jujhar Khaira for the opening tally at 8:27 of the first period. The 28-year-old has a goal and two helpers in his last three games. Overall, the Saskatchewan native is up to five points, 51 hits, 19 shots on net and eight PIM through 16 games. Outside of physicality, Archibald's contributions in fantasy are generally too inconsistent due to his limited role.
