Zibanejad scored two goals and added an assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over Tampa Bay.

EDGE Analysis

The goals pushed him to 20 on the season; it's the eighth straight season that Zibanejad has hit that mark. He turns 32 on Friday, but his so-called decline (62 points) seems situational. The Rangers were a bad team this year, and that impacted just about ever member of the team. That means he could drop a few rounds at next season's drafts. Zibanejad is coming off a string of three seasons of 81, 91 and 72 points, respectively. That talent doesn't simply dry up in a guy's early 30s.

Zibanejad scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 9-2 win over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Fantasy managers who have stuck with Zibanejad this long have gotten a reward in the form of seven points over his last three games. The 31-year-old was involved in the Rangers' first two goals Thursday. He's now at 18 tallies, 40 assists, 179 shots on net, 45 blocked shots, 44 hits and a minus-21 rating over 79 appearances. There are three games left on the Rangers' schedule for Zibanejad to make an attempt to reach the 20-goal and 60-point marks, but it'll still be his worst full-length season since 2017-18.

Zibanejad notched four assists, one shorthanded, in Wednesday's 8-5 loss to the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

It was Zibanejad's first multi-point performance since March 9 and his first four-point eruption since Oct. 17, 2022 against the Ducks. The 31-year-old has had a disappointing season overall, mirroring that of a Rangers squad on the brink of being eliminated from the playoffs, but with four games left on the team's schedule, he still has an outside shot at reaching 20 goals and 60 points.

Zibanejad scored a power-play goal on four shots in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

Zibanejad has three points (two power-play goals) over his last five contests. The 31-year-old's offense has turned shaky again late in the season after he was unable to sustain a promising February. He's at 17 goals, 35 helpers, 19 power-play points, 173 shots on net and a minus-22 rating through 77 appearances in a middle-six role.

Zibanejad (illness) is expected to play against New Jersey on Saturday, per Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today.

EDGE Analysis

Zibanejad won't miss any playing time despite skipping Friday's practice. He has accounted for 16 goals, 51 points and 167 shots on net across 75 appearances this season. Zibanejad has produced only one goal and an assist in his last eight outings.

Zibanejad (illness) is not at practice Friday, per Peter Baugh of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Zibanejad has struggled in 2024-25 with only 16 goals and 35 assists across 75 games, his worst season since 2017-18 when he managed 27 goals and 20 assists in 72 appearances. Zibanejad should be considered a game-time decision ahead of Saturday's matinee in New Jersey. Should he be unable to play, look for Nicolas Aube-Kubel to enter the lineup.

Zibanejad notched an assist, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Zibanejad has a point in each of the last two games after going five contests without one. The 31-year-old helped out on the first of Adam Fox's two tallies in the contest. Zibanejad is up to 51 points, 163 shots on net and a minus-18 rating through 74 appearances. A third-line role isn't an ideal spot for him, but it's one where the Rangers have slotted him in at times since bolstering their center depth through the J.T. Miller trade at the end of January.

Zibanejad scored a power-play goal on two shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Zibanejad ended a seven-game goal drought, during which he was limited to one assist. The 31-year-old center's offense has crashed again in late March, though it doesn't help that he's no longer playing alongside J.T. Miller at even strength, as the two displayed chemistry in previous weeks. Zibanejad is at 16 goals, 50 points (18 on the power play), 161 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 42 hits and a minus-20 rating through 73 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Zibanejad won a puck battle in the corner and found a wide-open Alexis Lafreniere for the opening goal at 1:43 of the first period. That proved to be the game-winner. Zibanejad has been pretty good in March with two goals and five helpers over his last eight contests, though that pales in compared to his dynamic February (13 points in nine games). For the season, the 31-year-old has 15 goals, 34 helpers, 152 shots on net, 41 blocked shots, 35 hits and a minus-19 rating over 67 appearances.

Zibanejad scored a goal in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Jets. He also racked up three shots on goal and three hits.

EDGE Analysis

Zibanejad has scored in two of his last three appearances and is carrying a three-game point streak. He's been on a tear since the regular season resumed after the 4 Nations break, cracking the scoresheet in eight of his 10 outings while tallying 11 points (four goals, seven helpers) over that stretch.
