Hoffman collected a pair of assists on the power play in Thursday's overtime win over Anaheim.
EDGE Analysis
Hoffman was in on both goals in the victory, as the Senators put an end to their six-game losing streak. The first-line winger broke out of his own mini-slump in the process, getting on the scoresheet for the first time in five games. Hoffman has had some cold stretches this season, but he's got 32 points (12 goals) through 49 games and remains a valuable fantasy forwards. Considering how often he shoots the puck and his lethal sniping ability, it's only a matter of time before more pucks start going in and his dismal 7.4 shooting percentage increases.

Hoffman has three goals in his last three games heading into the All-Star break. He had zero goals in his previous 14 tilts.
EDGE Analysis
Hoffman has at least 26 goals in his last three seasons, but this year has been a little rough for him. The 28-year-old has only 12 goals through 47 games. However, he also has a 7.9 shooting percentage, which is well below his career average. After the All-Star break, don't be surprised if Hoffman picks it up.

Hoffman recorded a goal and added three assists (one on the power play) during Friday's 6-5 overtime win against San Jose.
EDGE Analysis
Friday's huge showing snapped a six-game point drought, and it was also just the second time in 10 contests that Hoffman marked the scoresheet. Ottawa's team-wide struggles have the winger's numbers down across the board, as his 10 goals and 18 assists have his pace slightly behind last season's 61-point finish. Still, if this gem is a sign of things to come, and Hoffman builds on this showing, he could quickly return to being a high-end asset in the majority of settings.

Hoffman contributed two power-play assists in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
Ottawa's power play wasn't to blame for this loss, as the extra-man unit connected twice in four tries. Hoffman's now scored 37 of his 85 points since the start of last season on the power play, so it wasn't surprising to see him contributing in such situations here. He's been underwhelming of late, as this was Hoffman's first multi-point showing since Nov. 11.

Hoffman recorded an assist and six shots on net through 18:45 of ice time (3:47 with the man advantage) during Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
With everything crumbling around him in Ottawa, Hoffman has somehow managed to buoy his fantasy value. He's now up to a respectable nine goals, 22 points and 100 shots through 29 games for the campaign, and he's a rare Senator fantasy owners can still trust.

Hoffman found the back of the net in Friday's 5-2 loss to Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
It was a birthday goal for Hoffman, who's now scored one in back-to-back contests. The 28-year-old is up to eight goals and 18 points on the season and can be trusted in most fantasy lineups every night.

Hoffman scored a goal and added four shots in a 5-2 loss to the Capitals on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
After going on an eight game point streak, Hoffman hadn't found the scoresheet in three consecutive games leading up to Wednesday. The Ontario native ranks third on the team in points and is reliable enough, but it would be nice for the Ottawa offense to pick up the pace as a whole.

Hoffman tallied two goals during Saturday's 4-3 triumph over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
The markers give him three goals and 11 points in his last nine games. This torrid pace may not continue, but Hoffman has finished with at 59 points in each of the last two seasons, so he's a reliable fantasy option that should be played regularly.

Hoffman had an assist on a Frederik Claesson goal in Friday's 4-3 overtime win over Colorado in Sweden.
EDGE Analysis
Hoffman has quietly scored in every Senators game since Oct. 21's contests against Toronto. He hasn't gotten much attention because only one of the nine points he's accumulated in the past seven games has been a goal. But with 10 assists on the year, the Senators aren't complaining and neither are his owners.

Hoffman recorded a goal and an assist with the man advantage during Monday's 8-3 loss to Montreal.
EDGE Analysis
After failing to find the scoresheet in the first three games of the season, Hoffman has registered five goals and 11 points through his past nine contests. With exceptional skating ability and a lethal shooting arsenal, Hoffman has potential to improve his point total for the third consecutive season in just his fourth full campaign in the league.
