Tatar totaled four shots and a blocked shot in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar has yet to mark the scoresheet through four games while skating on the third line and No. 2 power-play unit. He had 61 points in 68 games for the Canadiens in 2019-20, but the veteran winger has only 60 points in 130 games since.

Tatar (illness) was on the ice Thursday to begin training camp, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar missed time with an illness at the end of last season, but he's fully healthy now. The 31-year-old winger will likely see a middle-six role in 2022-23, though his production has declined sharply over the last two years and he may see a reduced role on the power play entering the campaign.

Tatar (illness) won't be in the lineup for Friday's regular-season finale versus Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar will finish the season having tallied 15 goals and 30 points while posting an ugly minus-22 rating through 76 contests. The 31-year-old winger will likely produce similar, if not marginally better numbers while skating in a middle-six role with the Devils in 2022-23.

Tatar (illness) won't be ready to play against Carolina on Thursday, Catherine Bogart of the Devils' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar was struggling even before falling ill, as he is mired in a six-game pointless streak dating back to April 12 versus the Coyotes. At this point, with a back-to-back to end the year, Tatar should probably be considered doubtful, at best, to suit up versus Detroit on Friday, though he hasn't been officially ruled out.

Tatar (undisclosed) is not in Tuesday's lineup against Ottawa, per the NHL's media site.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear if Tatar is injured or if he's getting a night off as the season nears a close. The veteran winger hasn't missed a game since Jan. 2 and he's racked up 30 points through 76 appearances on the year. His next chance to suit up will be Thursday against Carolina.

He took a pass from Jesper Boqvist at the right face-off circle and skated into the slot before wiring it past Anthony Stolarz at the 2:39 mark of the second period. Tatar has not been able to reclaim the glory of his 61 points in 68 games from two seasons ago, and is sitting with just 11 goals and 24 points in 56 games.

Tatar notched his 400th career point with a goal in Tuesday's 5-3 win over Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Tatar directed a rebound into a yawning cage for his 400th career point in the second period. It seemed like an unimportant goal at the time, cutting Colorado's lead to 3-1, but Tatar's tally ignited the Devils, who added four more in a row to complete an improbable comeback. The 31-year-old winger has 10 goals and 23 points in 54 games this season.
