Di Giuseppe registered an assist and six hits in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Predators in Game 2.
EDGE Analysis
Di Giuseppe didn't play much down the stretch, but he's been in the lineup over Vasily Podkolzin and Nils Aman through two playoff contests. In 51 regular-season outings, Di Giuseppe registered 10 points, 52 shots on net, 36 PIM and 94 hits. He'll likely stay in a bottom-six role during the postseason, if he's able to maintain his place in the lineup.

Di Giuseppe scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Di Giuseppe went from a 26-game point drought to goals in consecutive contests after bending the twine in the first period. The 30-year-old is getting another look in the lineup as a physical option in the bottom six while Dakota Joshua (upper body) is out. Di Giuseppe has five goals, five assists, 50 shots on net, 82 hits, 34 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 46 appearances this season.

Di Giuseppe scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Di Giuseppe hadn't gotten on the scoresheet since Nov. 18, a span of 26 contests without a point. He was also scratched for 20 games during his lengthy slump, which was brought to a close with the game-winning goal Thursday. The 30-year-old has four goals, nine points, 48 shots on net, 81 hits, 34 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 45 appearances. While he saw some top-six usage early in the season, it's unlikely he gets back in that role any time soon.

Di Giuseppe (undisclosed) is not expected to return to the lineup before the NHL All-Star break, Jeff Paterson of The Hockey News reports Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Di Giuseppe still hasn't started skating, so this extended timeline shouldn't come as a surprise. Even prior to getting hurt, the 30-year-old winger was a frequent healthy scratch, no doubt in part due to his 14-game pointless streak. As such, even once Di Giuseppe is cleared to return, he is unlikely to offer much in the way of fantasy impact.
