Couturier notched a goal and an assist in Tuesday's road victory over Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
In addition to his multi-point showing, Couturier also finished the contest with a plus-2 rating. The longtime Flyer has been immense in his last 15 games, scoring nine goals and 21 points while averaging over 22 minutes of time on ice. Once considered a lockdown center with limited offensive ability, over the past two seasons Couturier has blossomed into one of the best two-way players in the NHL.

Couturier tallied an assist versus the Rangers on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Couturier has been on a tear of late, as he has 11 points in his last eight contests, including two on the power play. The center is behind his career-best pace from 2017-18 when he notched 76 points, but should still be capable of challenging for the 60-point mark.

Couturier scored three goals in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Couturier scored two of his three goals in the second period, with the second one coming on a man advantage. His third and final marker would hold up as the game-winner. The 26-year-old, after logging 22:18 of ice time Wednesday and firing a team-high five shots on goal, is up to 19 goals and 19 assists in 45 games this season. The three-goal performance gives him nine points over his last five games, and Couturier will look to extend that point streak to six games when the Flyers travel to Montreal on Saturday. The forward has enjoyed quite a bit of success versus the Habs over his career, recording 15 points in 21 contests.

Couturier scored a goal and an assist in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
The streaky center appears to be heating up again, scoring a goal and five points in his last three games. Couturier now has 34 points (16 goals, 18 assists) through 43 games, and while that leaves him a little short of last season's 76-point pace, he's still proving his 2017-18 breakout was no fluke.

Couturier tallied two assists, three shots and won 13 of 19 faceoffs during Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Couturier has been a little cool of late with just one goal and three points in his last seven games but remains on pace for a 60-plus point campaign. It's worth noting that the eighth overall pick from the 2011 NHL Entry Draft took off in the second half of 2017-18, so there's plenty of upside down the stretch for the 25-year-old center. Keep playing him as you normally would.

Couturier has 15 goals and 29 points with a minus-8 rating in 38 games this season.
EDGE Analysis
As the Flyers approach the halfway point of the season, it's time to admit Couturier has been disappoint in 2018-19. It can't all be blamed on him, as he's holding up his end of the bargain in the goals and shots on net departments. But without much help, Couturier has just 14 assists along with a career-worst number in the plus/minus category. However, not all hope is lost. Couturier had 26 helpers and a plus-22 rating in the second half last season. He'll be hard pressed to do that on this losing Flyers squad, but if he could come close, Couturier can still finish close to his preseason projections.

Couturier picked up an assist in Sunday's 3-2 shootout win over New York.
EDGE Analysis
Couturier has a point in his last three games and 27 in 33 games. He assisted on Wayne Simmonds' power-play goal in the third period that gave Philly a 2-1 lead, but the Rangers would waste little time getting back on even terms, tying the game 22 seconds later. It's been business as usual for the 26-year-old in 2018-19, with Couturier averaging 0.82 points per game.

Couturier scored two goals and added an assist with five shots on goal, three blocks and a hit in a 6-5 overtime loss to the Flames on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
What a return. After not playing for nearly a week, Couturier didn't miss a beat, as his three points all came in different situations -- on the power play, at even strength and while shorthanded. Couturier has 12 goals and 23 points in 27 games, which puts him on pace, if healthy, to match his 31 goals and 76 points from last season. However, Couturier might have to get more pucks to the net to keep up this pace. After Wednesday, his shooting percentage jumped up to 16.2 percent, which is 2.5 percent higher than it was last season.

Couturier (lower body) will return to the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Flames, NHL.com's Aaron Vickers reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Flyers and fantasy owners will both welcome Couturier back to their lineups with open arms, as he's been productive when healthy this season, racking up 10 goals and 20 points in 26 appearances. The 26-year-old pivot will return to a prominent role Wednesday, skating on Philadelphia's second line and top power-play unit against Calgary.

Couturier (lower body) won't suit up for Sunday's game versus the Jets, Scott Billeck of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Couturier will miss his second game in two days, allowing Scott Laughton to ascend to the top six. The 26-year-old's having another solid campaign with 20 points in 26 games, so fantasy owners will hope he can shake his injury before Wednesday's matchup versus the Jets.
