MacLean scored a goal, placed three shots on net and dished out two hits in Thursday's 6-3 win over Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean helped spark the Islanders' offense from the early stages of Thursday's contest with a goal under six minutes into regulation. The twine finder was the 26-year-old forward's first goal of the season, which brings his totals up to two points, 12 shots on net and 28 hits through 14 games. MacLean was a healthy scratch from Nov. 8 - Nov. 26, but he notched his first point since his return to the lineup four games ago. With 12 hits in that span, he'll look to provide value to New York's fourth line in the absence of Jonathan Drouin (back) and Jean-Gabriel Pageau (upper body).

MacLean logged an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

The helper was MacLean's first point in nine appearances this season. He began the year as a healthy scratch but has worked his way into steady fourth-line minutes while Max Shabanov(upper body) has been out. MacLean has added seven shots on net, 14 hits, 19 PIM and a minus-4 rating this season. He's unlikely to get enough ice time to make a positive impact in fantasy.

MacLean recorded two assists, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean earned his first multi-point effort of the season by assisting on both of linemate Marc Gatcomb's tallies in the contest. The 25-year-old MacLean also snapped a six-game point drought. He's served in a fourth-line role throughout 2024-25, earning four goals, seven assists, 56 shots on net, 101 hits, 27 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating over 75 appearances. That's just a little better than his nine-point showing as a rookie over 32 games in 2023-24, though offense has been hard to come by for many of the Islanders' players.

MacLean potted a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to Calgary.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean cleaned up a Maxim Tsyplakov rebound late in the third period to give New York the lead, but would Calgary tie the score just 29 seconds later. MacLean had been held off the scoresheet in 11 consecutive games prior to Saturday. He has matched his production from a season ago with four goals and nine points across 68 games in 2024-25. He's added 55 shots on goal, 85 hits, 14 PIM and a minus-9 rating while centering the fourth line.

MacLean (illness) warmed up on the fourth line, indicating he will be available to play Tuesday versus the Kings, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean missed Sunday's game versus the Ducks, but that looks to be the extent of the 25-year-old's absence. With MacLean back, Scott Mayfield is set to be a healthy scratch as the Islanders continue to carry nine blueliners on the active roster.

MacLean (illness) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's road game in Los Angeles, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean sat out Sunday's 4-1 loss in Anaheim and is still dealing with some effects of his illness, per Gross. Scott Mayfield will be a healthy scratch if MacLean suits up against the Kings. If MacLean is unable to play, the Islanders will utilize 11 forwards and seven defensemen.

MacLean is contending with an illness and will not be available Sunday in Anaheim, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean will miss his first game of the season -- he has three goals and eight points over 62 outings. The Islanders have more depth on the blue line than at forward, so Adam Boqvist will center the fourth line in place of MacLean against the Ducks.

MacLean provided an assist in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean snapped a three-game point drought. He's actually improved recently with three points over his last seven outings, but it'll be tough for him to keep it up while he's firmly on the fourth line. The 25-year-old center is up to eight points, 41 shots on net, 73 hits and a minus-10 rating through 56 appearances this season.

MacLean scored a goal on his lone shot attempt in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean's goal was the first of the game for New York and opened the scoring in a five-goal second period. The 25-year-old center is up to three goals, four assists, 67 hits and 40 shots on net in 52 appearances. While he sees limited usage in his fourth-line role, he has points in two of his last three contests. However, it is best to look elsewhere for waiver wire additions.

MacLean notched an assist in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

MacLean ended his 17-game point drought when he set up Marc Gatcomb's first career goal. The 25-year-old MacLean has played on the fourth line regularly of late, giving him minimal upside on offense. The center has five points, 37 shots on net, 64 hits, 20 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating over 50 appearances. Still, he plays an honest defensive game, and that's enough to keep him in the lineup most of the time.
