Pospisil scored a goal on three shots, levied five hits and added four PIM in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil snapped a five-game slump with his tally in the first period. The 24-year-old rookie has eight goals, 10 assists, 95 shots on net, 203 hits, 82 PIM and a plus-10 rating over 54 contests. He should continue to be a solid source of grit, but his offense isn't at a particularly reliable level for fantasy purposes.

Pospisil scored a goal on two shots, added four PIM and logged three hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil has a goal, an assist, 13 hits and six PIM over three contests since he returned from a suspension. The 24-year-old's tally Saturday ended up being the first game-winning goal of his career. He's at 17 points, 81 shots on net, 180 hits, 78 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 48 appearances this season, finding decent success alongside Nazem Kadri at even strength.

Pospisil recorded an assist, five hits and two PIM in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil returned from a three-game suspension, but he maintained his physical edge. His penalty was a slashing minor against goalie Justus Annunen. Pospisil will need to walk a fine line to avoid more supplemental discipline, but he can offer fantasy managers boosts in hits and PIM. For the season, the rookie forward has 16 points, 77 shots on net, 74 PIM, 172 hits and a plus-8 rating over 46 appearances.

Pospisil has served his three-game suspension and will be available to face Colorado on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil has managed just two goals on 31 shots in his last 25 outings, though he did chip in six assists while dishing out 101 hits over that stretch. Except in formats that utilize hits, Pospisil likely won't offer more than low-end fantasy value

Pospisil was suspended three games Wednesday for boarding Seattle's Vince Dunn in Monday's game.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil has played with an edge, but his transgression Monday earned him a major penalty and an ejection, and he'll now sit for the Flames' upcoming three-game road trip. He'll be eligible to return Tuesday versus the Avalanche. Matthew Coronato was brought up from AHL Calgary to presumably take Pospisil's spot in the lineup.

Pospisil will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Wednesday for boarding Seattle's Vince Dunn during Monday's 4-2 loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil was issued a five-minute major and ejected from the game for his hit on Dunn, who exited the contest and did not return following the collision. The fact that Dunn appears to have been injured on the play will likely factor into the outcome of Pospisil's hearing.

Pospisil scored a goal and added six hits in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
This was Pospisil's second straight game with a goal. It's the first time in his young career that he's scored in consecutive outings. The big-hitting forward has 15 points, 73 shots on net, 146 hits, 53 PIM and a plus-9 rating over 42 outings this season. Pospisil continues to do fairly well in a top-six role, though his offensive contributions are likely too infrequent to justify a roster spot in standard fantasy formats.

Pospisil scored a goal on four shots, added two PIM and doled out seven hits in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil scored for the first time since Dec. 18. He put up six helpers, 67 hits and 41 PIM over 20 contests between goals. Pospisil has the grit to be a power winger, but his offense is lagging behind a bit. For the season, the 24-year-old rookie has 14 points, 140 hits, 53 PIM, 72 shots on net and a plus-9 rating over 41 appearances while seeing steady time alongside Nazem Kadri and Connor Zary, who both assisted on his goal Thursday.

EDGE Analysis
Pospisil has two helpers, 22 hits and 23 PIM over five contests since the All-Star break. The 24-year-old is getting more comfortable with using his physicality. He remains in a middle-six role alongside Nazem Kadri. Pospisil is at 13 points, 65 shots, 114 hits, 45 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 38 appearances this season.

Pospisil notched an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and two PIM in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Pospisil picked up a helper one day after signing a two-year contract extension. The 24-year-old is logging middle-six minutes for the Flames, playing alongside Nazem Kadri and Connor Zary. Pospisil is up to 12 points, 62 shots on net, 89 hits, 39 PIM and a plus-11 rating through 35 contests overall. His offense isn't much, but he has solid all-around production that can be useful in deep fantasy formats.
