The 29-year-old Foligno is enjoying a hot run of production with six goals and five helpers in the last 10 games.

Foligno scored a goal and added three hits in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno got the Wild on the board at 9:58 of the second period, but that was the extent of their offense. The 29-year-old forward has seven goals, 12 points, 21 shots on net, 48 hits and 22 PIM in 18 appearances. He's been pretty effective in a third-line role, and his physical play could give him a little extra appeal in fantasy.

Foligno scored twice on two shots and added an assist in Monday's 5-4 overtime loss to Vegas.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno racked up all three of his points during the second period to help send the Wild into the locker room with a 4-2 lead. He was in the right place at the right time on his first tally, crashing the net while a Jonas Brodin centering pass deflected off of his skate and then off of his opposite knee before bouncing past Marc-Andre Fleury, giving Minnesota a 2-1 lead. He led a 2-on-1 rush later in the period and picked the top corner from the left circle for his second of the night, making it a 4-2 game. Those two goals sandwiched Foligno's assist on a Nick Bonino goal. The 29-year-old now has four goals and four helpers through 16 games with a solid plus-7 rating.

Foligno scored a goal, dished an assist, notched a fighting major and added four hits in Monday's 6-2 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno did the fighting first, scrapping with Sharks defenseman Nikolai Knyzhov in the first period. Shortly after he finished serving the fighting major, Foligno assisted on Ian Cole's first goal with the Wild. The 29-year-old Foligno added the goal midway through the middle frame to put the Wild up 4-1. He's up to six points, 16 PIM, 39 hits and a plus-5 rating through 13 contests this year.

The 29-year-old forward has added a pair of assists, 12 shots on net, 34 hits and a plus-3 rating in 11 appearances.

Foligno cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocol Tuesday, Matt Porter of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
It appears Foligno will be ready for Tuesday's game versus the Kings. The 29-year-old is slated to play on the third line. He's lauded more for his defensive abilities than offensive production, but Foligno did add three points through the first nine games.

Foligno was placed in the NHL's COVID-19 protocol Sunday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno will miss Sunday's game against the Avalanche. The Wild start a two-game road trip against the Avalanche on Tuesday, and Foligno is expected to miss both of those outings. Kyle Rau and Gerald Mayhew were both promoted from the taxi squad to add depth until Foligno can return.

Foligno has supplied two assists and six shots while averaging 15:04 of ice time over his past five contests.
EDGE Analysis
After posting a career-high 25 points in the 2019-20 season, Foligno has followed it up with a solid start to this season. Despite playing in a bottom-six role with virtually no power-play time, the 29-year-old has three points and nine shots over eight games this season. Foligno's heavy game will likely keep him in the lineup going forward (he has 25 hits and three blocks this year), but his limited offensive upside won't be enough to warrant serious fantasy contention.
