Hoffman was one of the few bright spots in Tuesday's loss to Pittsburgh, taking seven shots and notching both his 29th goal and 29th assist of the season.

EDGE Analysis

He already set a new career mark in goals with one Saturday, but Hoffman's not done padding his stat line this year. He's got two games left to get the two points he needs for his first 60-point campaign. Considering Hoffman has racked up 12 points in his last 11 games, that wouldn't be an unrealistic achievement by any means.

Hoffman scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

The goal was his 28th and that's a new career mark for the winger. Hoffman has 10 points in his last 10 games and now sits with 56 points in 75 games this season. He continues to produce and is in line to get a tasty raise this offseason, but it remains to be seen if he's in the Sens' plans. Hoffman may be priced out of their market, even as their top sniper.

Hoffman found twine on four shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman is in the midst of an excellent stretch, impacting the box score in six of the last seven. In that span, the 26-year-old has two markers and five apples despite seeing under 15 minutes of ice time in three separate outings. The winger has now tied his career-high 27 tallies, with expectations being he sets a new milestone before season's end.

Hoffman dished out two helpers during Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old extended his point streak to five games with the helpers. With seven points over that span, it's safe to say that he's on fire. Tuesday marked the third straight game in which he fired four shots on goal, and the fourth time he's done it in the last six. His 53 points have already surpassed his career-high of 48, and the season isn't over yet.

Hoffman's point streak now stands at four games and five points (one goal, four assists) after picking up two assists in Saturday's 5-0 victory over Ottawa.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman now has 51 points and he's done it in 69 games. Those 51 points are a new career mark, so everything is gravy at this point. Hey -- Hoffman has an outside shot at 60 points this season. Take full advantage of this streak.

Hoffman lit the lamp on three shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

Finally, Hoffman was able to find twine after not recording a tally in eight straight outings. The winger has now reached the scoresheet in two straight, returning to his normal allotment of minutes on the second line and producing as a result. Coach Dave Cameron shouldn't have any complaints about Hoffman's recent performances, which should allow for owners to breathe again and place the 26-year-old safely back in lineups.

Coach Dave Cameron acknowledged that Hoffman is still a big part of the Senators as a go-to winger, Ken Warren of the Ottawa Citizen reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman was benched just four games ago, and also skated on the fourth line the next outing. However, the winger has returned to his normal role with the top six as Cameron has forgiven the 26-year-old for his poor performance. Hoffman still only has one assist in his last seven appearances, but he has racked up six PIM in that span, a category the winger rarely impacts while on ice (34 minutes spent in the box during his career).

Hoffman registered an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 4-0 win against the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman was recently in coach Dave Cameron's doghouse, but finally was able to find the scoresheet for the first time this month. The winger has been able to notch six PIM in his last three, but owners are hoping for more from the player that has 25 markers and 22 apples on the season. Fortunately, it appears Hoffman has returned to his normal role and should have better games ahead. Don't look too much into the ice time in this one, as Ottawa had the game in hand against a slumping Toronto squad.

Hoffman went minus-2 and registered two PIM in 18:03 of ice time in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to Carolina.

EDGE Analysis

On Monday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reported that Hoffman would stick to the fourth line, but coach Dave Cameron decided to ease up on the winger and return him to normalcy. Even though the production wasn't there (Hoffman has gone pointless in five straight), the 27-year-old has solid odds to bounce back and potentially hit the 50-point mark for the first time in his career. The 2009 fifth-round pick has 25 goals and 21 assists on the year.

Hoffman will remain on the fourth line with Chris Neil and Curtis Lazar, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Coach Dave Cameron was satisfied with each line's play Sunday, stating "we'll leave that together for awhile." Hoffman skated at even strength for just 10:13, but he did see 3:33 on the power play, tied for second-most on the team (he has 12 points with the man advantage this season). Obviously, this demotion hurts the winger's value, who has amassed 25 goals and 21 assists to date. The 26-year-old will be forced to become more comfortable with his new line, but even then, Hoffman should be relegated in fantasy lineups.
