Barzal scored a goal, dished out an assist, placed four shots on net, recorded a block and served two PIM in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Barzal was involved in every stage of New York's offense Saturday, as he scored a goal near the end of the second period before he assisted Emil Heineman's game-tying tally to send the game to overtime. Barzal also recorded a backhanded score for the Islanders' lone tally of the shootout. With the goal and assist in regulation, he is up to 10 goals, 19 assists, 82 shots on net and 25 blocks through 35 games this season. Despite being listed as a game-time decision for each of the past two contests, the 28-year-old center hasn't missed a beat, recording three points over the last two outings to extend his point streak to seven games. He's well on his way to the seventh 50-plus point campaign of his career and has 70-80-point potential if he can stay hot in the second half of the season, giving him strong value in all point-based fantasy formats.

EDGE Analysis

Barzal found the back of the net at the 9:03 mark of the second period with a backhander. That was his lone shot of the game, and it was also all the offense the Islanders would muster.

EDGE Analysis

Barzal had a fantastic performance in both offensive areas. He registered two assists and scored a power-play goal where he deked and dangled through Colorado's defense before lifting a backhanded shot past Mackenzie Blackwood. With the trio of tallies, the 28-year-old center is up to eight goals, 13 points and 69 shots on net through 27 games this season. He not only continues to produce plays worthy of highlight reels, but he has also been a consistent name found on the Islanders' scoresheet. With 21 points, he trails fellow center Bo Horvat for the team lead in points. Barzal has already passed the 20-point campaign he had through 30 games a year ago, and he's on track for the fifth 60-plus point season of his career if he can stay healthy.

With his highlight-reel twine finder, he has seven goals, 18 points and 58 shots on net through 23 games this campaign. The 28-year-old center has just two multi-point performances this season, but he's consistently found the scoresheet. After a season riddled with injury a year ago, Barzal is tracking toward the 60-point mark while centering the Isles' top line. He should continue to see a large chunk of ice time moving forward, giving him plenty of chances to return to the elite form of 80 points he had through 80 regular-season games during the 2023-24 campaign.

EDGE Analysis
