Poehling scored a shorthanded goal and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Poehling had put up just one helper over his previous six outings. The 27-year-old center is getting a chance to play a larger role than usual while the Ducks are missing their top two centers in Leo Carlsson (thigh) and Mason McTavish (upper body). Poehling has four goals, 17 points, 51 blocked shots, 45 shots on net and a plus-5 rating over 44 appearances this season. He's earned three of his 17 points while shorthanded.

Poehling scored a goal and blocked four shots in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

EDGE Analysis

Poehling ended an eight-game goal drought, a span in which he picked up just two assists. The 27-year-old continues to see mainly bottom-six minutes as a defensive center. He's up to three goals, 15 points, 36 shots on net, 45 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating across 37 contests this season, his first with the Ducks.

The bottom-six center is at 12 points, 28 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating across 28 appearances this season.

EDGE Analysis

Poehling has back-to-back two-assist games (five shots) and five assists in his last four games. But unfortunately, he has just one goal and 10 assists in 27 games. Poehling came off his best offensive season (68 games; 12 goals, 19 assists) in 2024-25, but he will be hard pressed to replicate that offensive output this year. He has 11 points in 27 games this season.

EDGE Analysis

The checking-line center had a hand in the Ducks' first and last goals of the night, setting up Jackson LaCombe for a shortie in the second period before feeding Pavel Mintyukov in the third. It was Poehling's first multi-point performance of the season, and through 26 games he's managed a goal and nine points, which is short of his pace from 2024-25, when he produced a career-high 12 goals and 31 points in 68 contests.

Poehling notched a shorthanded assist in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

With the Ducks fully healthy at forward, Poehling's defensive skills are keeping him in action as a bottom-six center. He's at seven points, 21 shots on net, 27 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 24 outings.
