Bastian scored a goal on two shots and added six hits in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian was scratched Monday versus the Canucks, but he got back in the lineup with Cody Glass (undisclosed) sidelined. The 27-year-old Bastian has been a regular in the Devils' lineup, but the team also has 15 healthy forwards on the roster, so he may sit out on occasion down the stretch. He's at four goals, 10 points, 43 shots on net, 122 hits, 29 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 54 outings this season.

Bastian notched an assist and two hits in Saturday's 3-1 win over Utah.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian helped out on a Curtis Lazar goal in the third period. The helper was Bastian's first point since his Jan. 29 goal against the Flyers. The 27-year-old winger remains a regular on the Devils' fourth line, but he's more of a physical force than a scorer. He's up to nine points, 37 shots on net, 97 hits, 29 PIM and a plus-1 rating across 43 appearances this season.

Bastian scored a power-play goal and added three hits in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian has not often seen power-play time this year, but he looks to have a chance now while Nico Hischier (upper body) is out. Hischier's injury caused some shuffling on the Devils' power-play units, with Bastian checking in on the second unit while Ondrej Palat gets a larger role with the first unit. That gives Bastian a bit more upside in deep fantasy formats, but he has just eight points with 31 shots on net, 73 hits and 27 PIM across 35 appearances this season.

Bastian (undisclosed) is slated to play Wednesday versus Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian left Monday's 4-2 loss to Philadelphia due to his undisclosed ailment, but it seems he won't miss a full game due to the injury. He has two goals, seven points, 27 PIM and 70 hits over 34 appearances in 2024-25. Bastian is projected to play on the fourth line alongside Kurtis MacDermid and Curtis Lazar.

Bastian suffered an undisclosed injury Monday versus the Flyers, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian was on the receiving end of a big hit from Philadelphia's Nick Seeler in the middle frame of Monday's 4-2 loss. Bastian did not return for the remainder of the game. Head coach Sheldon Keefe did not have an update on Bastian's status, so the 27-year-old should be considered day-to-day ahead of Wednesday's rematch with the Flyers.

Bastian logged an assist and three hits in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian has two helpers over his last three games after going 16 contests without a point. The physical winger has maintained steady fourth-line minutes since returning from a broken jaw he suffered in early November. He's at seven points, 62 hits, 27 PIM, 26 shots on net and a plus-1 rating through 30 appearances.

Bastian logged an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

The helper was Bastian's first point in 16 games since he returned from a broken jaw. The 27-year-old winger has occupied a fourth-line spot during that stretch and has been a regular in the lineup despite the lack of offense. He's at six points, 24 shots on net, 27 PIM and 58 hits through 28 appearances this season.

Bastian has not gotten on the scoresheet over 15 games since he returned from a broken jaw that cost him 16 contests.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian's overall drought is at 16 games, a span in which he has 39 hits, 13 shots on net and 23 PIM. The 27-year-old is a physical fourth-line winger, so a lack of offense isn't out of the ordinary. He has five points, 56 hits, 27 PIM, 24 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 27 outings overall. Without better scoring numbers, Bastian won't be much of an impact player in fantasy.

Bastian (jaw) will be activated from long-term injured reserve ahead of his return to the lineup versus Toronto on Tuesday, according to Mike Morreale of NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian will occupy a bottom-six role after missing the last 16 games. He has registered two goals, three assists, 11 shots on net, seven blocked shots and 19 hits across 12 appearances this campaign. With Bastian back, Nathan Legare will come out of the lineup.

Bastian (jaw) was put on long-term injured reserve Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Bastian sustained a jaw injury in a 3-0 loss to Calgary on Nov. 1, meaning he won't be eligible to return until at least Nov. 27 versus the Blues. He has two goals, five points, 11 shots on net, seven blocked shots and 19 hits through 12 outings this season. On Monday, the Devils also moved Curtis Lazar (knee) to injured reserve while recalling Shane Bowers, Justin Dowling, Nolan Foote and Nick DeSimone from AHL Utica.
