McLeod delivered an assist in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
McLeod snapped an 11-game point drought with the helper, but it's worth noting that he has career highs in assists (20) and points (24) this season. While the physical center has generated 47 hits and 115 blocked shots as an added bonus for fantasy managers that count defensive stats, his fourth-line role generally makes it tough for him to stand out in fantasy hockey.

McLeod posted two assists and a plus-3 rating in the Devils' 5-3 win over Carolina on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
The third star of the game, McLeod would pick up assists on Jesper Boqvist's tying goal and Dawson Mercer's game-winning goal. The former first-round pick snapped a short two-game pointless drought with this two-point performance. On the season, McLeod has four goals and 18 points in 41 games.

McLeod scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
McLeod cleaned up a rebound opportunity after Miles Wood hit the crossbar on an odd-man rush. The goal would extend New Jersey's lead to 4-2 and would eventually prove to be the game-winner in the 5-3 victory. McLeod has found some success centering the Devils' third line between Wood and Fabian Zetterlund. He now has 11 points (three goals, eight assists), putting McLeod well on-pace to surpass his career high of 20 set last season.

McLeod scored into an open net during Saturday's 5-1 victory over the host Senators.
EDGE Analysis
McLeod, who failed to generate a shot during his previous three appearances, earned a coaching reward by skating on a shift with the goalie pulled Saturday. Finishing with four shots, two PIM and a plus-2 rating, the 24-year-old center earned 13:50 of ice time, his most since Oct. 30, a span of nine outings. McLeod's empty-net goal was his first in seven games.
