White accumulated 14 PIM and two hits in Thursday's 2-0 loss to the Capitals in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
Things got chippy in Game 1, leading to White's largest PIM total this year. The 28-year-old isn't one to back down, as he spent 101 minutes in the box this season, easily the highest mark of his career. However, the 2006 third-round pick doesn't offer much beyond that, notching just 16 points on the year and failing to reach the scoresheet in nine straight to finish out the regular season.

White scored his 10th goal of the season on a power play during Tuesday's 3-2 shootout loss to Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
At the time, White gave the Flyers a 2-0 lead, but they ended up blowing it. He's quietly started seeing power-play time over the last five weeks, and has been delivering on it lately, with three man-advantage tallies in the last six games. That mostly a boost to the relatively rare fantasy owners who typically rely on White for hits and PIM.

White picked up a secondary assist and an empty-net goal Tuesday in a 6-3 win over the Devils, adding a plus-2 rating and two PIM.
EDGE Analysis
With seven goals on the year now, White's established a new career high, and he's just a single point shy of last year's 12 -- although he's played in 13 more games this year. White has also already set new high-water marks in PIM and hits, which are where he sources the vast majority of his fantasy value.

White bagged a goal and a pair of hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime in Washington.
EDGE Analysis
White chose an opportune time to end a seven-game streak of zeros, tallying his fifth goal of the season. The goal helped his Flyers take the best team in the league -- a good sign as their offense had struggled in a few prior games. With just eight points on the season, White isn't a consistent fourth-line producer except for PIM -- he's got 68 of them.

White netted his fourth goal of the season in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win in Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
The goal is a nice bonus for owners who are plugging White into their lineup for his PIM production. While he has just two points in the last 10 games, he's spent 30 minutes asking for atonement in the same span. He faces the Islanders on Saturday, and he tallied a goal and zero PIM against them earlier this season. Maybe he's due for some time in the box.

White crafted a nifty pass from the slot to teammate Yevgeni Medvedev for the game-winner in Monday's 4-3 win over the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
With just six points this season, White's been mostly irrelevant in the fantasy world. If he has any value, it's in the 28 minutes he's spent repenting in the sin bin. The 27-year-old center is looking to complete his first full NHL campaign this year, and is on pace for 16 points and 81 PIM.

White scored a goal in his second game back from injury Monday against the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
White's goal was just his second of the season, giving him four points total for the year. Averaging just 13 minutes of ice time on Philadelphia's fourth line, the winger has not been a consistent contributor on the scoresheet.

White (shoulder) has been activated from injured reserve.
EDGE Analysis
White only had three points in 17 games before the shoulder injury prohibited him from playing in any of the previous nine contests. He lacks upside in fantasy leagues since he's a bottom-six forward only averaging 13:07 of ice time this season.

White (shoulder) skated alongside R.J. Umberger and Vincent Lecavalier on a "fifth line" in practice Monday, Bill Meltzer of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
White is entering the beginning of the two-to-four week timetable initially given to him after suffering an upper-body injury in the middle of the month, and seems to be progressing well. He could be cleared to play in the near future, though it's unclear at this point if he'd draw back into the lineup immediately.

White (shoulder) took part in morning skate Wednesday, but indicated he's unlikely to play this week, Tim Panaccio of CSN Philadelphia reports.
EDGE Analysis
While White probably won't return to the ice this week, rejoining the lineup next week would place him near the beginning of his initial two-to-four week timetable. For the time being, it appears he'll settle for participating during morning skate, though it's unlikely he's full go given that his shoulder is still bothering him.
