Hertl scored a power-play goal and fired two shots on net in Monday's 2-1 loss to Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Hertl kept the Golden Knights from being shut out with his power-play tally late in the second period. The 32-year-old center is now up to a three-game point streak and a run of play with 13 points over his last eight games. Overall, he has 20 goals, 43 points, 126 shots on net, 57 hits and 23 blocks through 48 outings this season. The 13-year veteran has ramped up his quality of play as of late and is back on track for the fifth 60-plus point regular season of his career. While he's been bumped down to a third-line role with Mitch Marner sliding into the second-line center spot amidst multiple injuries, Hertl hasn't lost much playing time, and he remains a strong fantasy option in most standard leagues.

Hertl scored a goal on two shots, added a power-play assist and logged two PIM in Thursday's 6-5 overtime win over the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Hertl helped out on Pavel Dorofeyev's second goal of the game early in the third period before scoring the game-tying tally with seven seconds left in regulation. This was Hertl's fourth multi-point effort over the last six contests, and he has four goals and seven assists in that span. The center is up to 19 goals, 41 points (17 on the power play), 123 shots on net, 56 hits, 25 PIM, 20 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 46 appearances this season. He's still listed on the third line but is functionally a top-six forward in a strong offense.

Hertl scored twice on four shots, added three assists and went plus-3 in Sunday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Hertl went ballistic on offense in this game against his former team. One goal and one assist came on the power play, but Hertl was effective in all areas during the massive performance. He's now at 18 goals, 39 points (16 on the power play), 120 shots on net, 55 hits and a minus-1 rating through 44 appearances. Since Hertl was traded to Vegas on March 8, 2024, he's racked up six goals and six assists over seven games against the Sharks, with nine of those points coming over four matchups in 2025-26.

Hertl notched two assists, including one on the power play, fired five shots on goal and added two hits in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Hertl has four points over his last two outings. He contributed his assists on goals by Mark Stone and Brett Howden in this contest, which were the Golden Knights' last two tallies of the game. Hertl is up to 34 points (14 on the power play), 115 shots on net, 55 hits, 17 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a minus-4 rating over 42 appearances. He's in a third-line role on paper but is still seeing top-six usage in reality, so fantasy managers should be able to continue to trust Hertl's production.

Hertl recorded a power-play goal and an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Hertl snapped a two-game pointless skid with a solid performance across the board. He earned his first multi-point effort since he recorded three points in a loss to the Oilers on Dec. 21. Hertl has 12 points (five goals, seven assists) in 16 appearances since the beginning of December, and the 32-year-old will continue to have tons of opportunities to produce in a high-scoring offense despite holding a third-line role.

Hertl scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Hertl has three goals and an assist over three outings against his former team this season. The 32-year-old is on a four-game point streak (two goals, four assists). He's up to 15 goals, 28 points, 100 shots on net, 44 hits and a minus-7 rating through 35 appearances. Hertl's functioning as the Golden Knights' de facto top center while Jack Eichel (lower body) is out, though Mitch Marner has lined up as the center on the top line despite limited usage on faceoffs.

Hertl scored a power-play goal on five shots, added two assists and logged three hits in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
One of Hertl's helpers also came with the man advantage. The 32-year-old is functionally the team's top center in the absence of Jack Eichel (lower body) and William Karlsson (lower body), though Mitch Marner, Ivan Barbashev and Reilly Smith have also taken turns down the middle lately. Hertl has five points over his last three games, and he's up to 14 goals, 13 helpers, 12 power-play points, 97 shots on net, 44 hits and a minus-6 rating over 34 outings.

Hertl scored a goal on two shots and added two assists in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Hertl continues to score in bunches -- he has four goals over his last four games. For the season, he's up to 13 goals, 22 points, 77 shots on net, 37 hits and a minus-5 rating through 28 appearances. While he's currently listed on the third line, Hertl's usage has been in line with that of a top-six forward thanks to his ample role on the first power-play unit. Fantasy managers can continue to trust him for steady scoring contributions and a bit of physical play.

EDGE Analysis
Hertl gave the Golden Knights a 2-0 lead in the latter stages of the second period with a wrister that went right past Jacob Markstrom. Hertl hasn't been the most consistent performer for the Golden Knights this season, but he seems to be trending in the right direction with three goals over his last three outings.
