EDGE Analysis

Lorentz has two goals over his last three games, bringing him up to seven markers and a career-high 14 points in 62 contests this season. However, he was on a 15-game goal-scoring drought from Jan. 21-Feb. 28 and registered only four assists over that span. Lorentz entered Monday's action averaging just 11:25 of ice time, and he's unlikely to be a regular offensive contributor unless his role expands.

EDGE Analysis

Lorentz snapped a five-game point drought by helping out on an Evgeny Svechnikov tally in the first period. It's been 11 games since Lorentz last scored a goal, and playing in a fourth-line role doesn't afford him a ton of good scoring chances. The 26-year-old is at five tallies, six helpers, 70 shots on net, 87 hits and a minus-11 rating through 55 outings.

The 26-year-old is up to four tallies, three helpers, 51 shots on net, 58 hits, 12 PIM and a minus-8 rating through 38 contests. He's played regularly in a fourth-line role this season, but he hasn't produced enough in any area to be particularly helpful for fantasy managers.
