Puts up two points Verhaeghe registered one goal and an assist in the 4-3 shootout loss to the Rangers on Saturday.

Impact Verhaeghe provided an assist on the opening goal and then scored his 31st goal of the season in the third period. Prior to this game, Verhaeghe had been held scoreless in his last three games but was able to put up his first multi-point game since March 12. While he only has four points in his last eight games, Verhaeghe is a reliable fantasy option with a strong chance of getting back to his scoring ways.

He's a top-10 goal scorer this season, and he's on pace for his second consecutive 40-plus goal season and first-ever 86-point season. Verhaeghe played for the Bolts in 2019-20, but they let him walk at the end of that season. What a mistake.

Impact The 28-year-old winger opened the scoring midway through the first period before adding an empty-netter in the third, but the first tally was all the support Anthony Stolarz would need. It was Verhaeghe's third multi-goal performance of the season, and it continued a hot streak that has seen him erupt for 12 goals and 27 points over the last 20 games. After breaking out for a career-high 42 goals last season, Verhaeghe is nearly matching that pace in 2023-24 and sits two markers short of another 30-goal campaign.
