Tatar scored the only Detroit goal in a 3-1 loss to Edmonton on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The goal was Tatar's first of the season after scoring 29 in last year's breakout campaign. Owners shouldn't fret, however, as Tatar had an even worse start to last season (one point in his first seven games) and that turned out just fine for the young winger.

Tatar has managed just two points through the first five contests of the season.

Tatar has received the least amount of ice time for players in Detroit's first three lines at just a 14-minute average. The minimal amount of time has resulted in five missed shots and a zero plus-minus to go along with his two assists. His next chance will come Wednesday versus Edmonton, who he's scored just one goal against in seven career games.

Tatar posted a hat trick and was plus-3 in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Tatar evidently enjoys having newcomer Brad Richards around, as Richards set the table on all three scores. Still, Tatar is quite talented in his own right. The versatile winger played in every game last year and finished with 29 goals and 27 assists. Look for him to maintain a top-six role throughout the 2015-16 campaign.

Tatar scored both of the team's goals -- including one on the power play -- in Monday's Game 6 loss to the Lightning. Tatar put more pucks on net in this one as he fired five shots on Lightning goalie Ben Bishop.

Tatar contributed two assists in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Bruins.
