Danton Heinen - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

First point since trade Heinen notched an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Flyers.

Impact Heinen ended his eight-game point drought. This was also his first helper in four appearances since the Canucks traded him to the Penguins in the Marcus Pettersson deal. Heinen is at 19 points, 55 shots on net, 57 hits, 28 blocked shots, 31 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 55 appearances this season. The 29-year-old forward is likely to continue filling a middle-six role for the Penguins, but he's unlikely to score enough to be a strong fantasy option.

Impact Heinen will get a second stint in Pittsburgh after playing there in 2021-22 and 2022-23.

The veteran forward has five goals, eight assists, 29 shots on net, 36 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 31 appearances. He'll likely continue to play in a bottom-six role.

Impact Heinen has four points over his last six outings. The 29-year-old forward is on the fourth line now, though he's moved around the lineup a fair amount early in the season. He's produced eight points, 15 shots on net, 20 hits, six PIM and a plus-4 rating over 16 contests. Heinen brings some physicality, but his role is a shaky one for offense, so fantasy managers may want to look for depth scoring elsewhere.

Nabs helper in team debut Heinen produced a power-play assist and two PIM in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Flames.

Impact Heinen helped out on a Daniel Sprong tally in the first period. The 29-year-old Heinen was listed on the Canucks' top line, but he saw just 14:00 of ice time in this contest. The winger signed a two-year deal with the Canucks after posting 36 points in 74 regular-season games with the Bruins last year, his most productive campaign in six years. While he has a good assignment to start 2024-25, he could slip into a middle-six role if his offense gets cold at any stage of the season.
