Frolik potted a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik's tally at 15:30 of the third period cut the Blackhawks' lead to 4-2. The goal is Frolik's second shorthanded point in the last three games -- the Czech winger is a notable penalty-killing specialist. He's now amassed 10 points, 44 shots on goal and a minus-10 rating through 38 appearances. Despite the recent surge in offense, Frolik doesn't carry much fantasy value in a bottom-six role.

Frolik produced an assist and two hits in Friday's 5-1 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik found Mikael Backlund for a shorthanded goal just 57 seconds into the third period, which produced the final score. It's still been a rough year for Frolik, who has only nine points and a minus-10 rating in 36 games after posting 34 points and a plus-24 through 65 contests last year. The 31-year-old has primarily been used on the fourth line lately, which will limit his fantasy value.

Frolik scored on his only shot of the game in Thursday's 4-2 win over Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik only skated 10 shifts in this one, but his goal two minutes into the third period gave the Flames a 3-2 lead and stood as the game-winner. Frolik has now scored in three straight games after finding the net just once in his first 29.

Frolik scored a goal and added an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik opened the scoring at 2:11 of the first period, and then set up Zac Rinaldo in the second to stretch the lead to 3-0. Frolik has now produced three points over his last two games despite his fourth-line usage. For the season, the 31-year-old winger has seven points and 37 shots on goal in 31 contests. He's not likely to have much of an impact in fantasy, but his recent turnaround could eventually see Frolik move up the lineup again.

Frolik posted a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik went 22 games between goals, but his tally Monday was vital, as it gave the Flames a 4-2 lead. The Avalanche rallied to tie, but Sean Monahan scored in overtime to make sure Frolik's scored was meaningful. The Czech winger has just five points and a minus-13 rating in 30 contests this season. Frolik had skated fewer than 10 minutes in each of the last three games.

Frolik recorded an assist in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik had gone 13 games and spent two additional contests in the press box since his last appearance on the scoresheet. The 31-year-old winger still has only four points in 26 outings this season. He's a strong penalty-killer, so that skill will keep him in the lineup, but he's little more than a bottom-six forward in 2019-20.

Frolik has not registered a point in his last 11 outings.
EDGE Analysis
Coach Bill Peters is trying to get Frolik's offense going, but the veteran winger's struggles have persisted regardless of his role. Frolik was reunited with Mikael Backlund and Matthew Tkachuk in Thursday's 5-0 loss to the Blues. With just three points and a minus-12 rating in 23 appearances this season, the 31-year-old can be safely ignored in fantasy for now.

Frolik was a healthy scratch for Thursday's 5-2 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
It's the first time Frolik has been out of the lineup this year, although he seems to have lost his spot on the second line to Andrew Mangiapane. With just three points and a minus-10 rating through 18 appearances, sitting Frolik seems justified. He's been held off the scoresheet in his last six games. The 31-year-old winger, best known for his penalty-killing -- seems to have lost a step this year. He's in the final season of a five-year contract, and the cap-strapped Flames may try to deal him at the trade deadline. He has a 10-team no-trade clause, but there may not be many suitors if his struggles persist.

Frolik picked up a pair of assists in Thursday's 6-5 shootout win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik's return to the second line sparked instant results, as both of his assists came on Matthew Tkachuk tallies. The 31-year-old winger has struggled early in the year, with three points and a minus-9 rating in 12 games. When coach Bill Peters shuffles the lines, Frolik usually takes a bottom-six role, which is about what he's earned with his production this year.

Frolik scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Frolik needed just 1:35 in the contest to beat Flyers goalie Brian Elliott after a turnover in the offensive zone. The 31-year-old winger needed seven games to earn a point this season, but his offense should pick up if he maintains a top-six role.
