Extends streak to three games Staal recorded a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Staal struggled to make an impact in the first weeks of the season, but he's been playing better of late and has cracked the scoresheet in three games in a row. He's up to one goal and three assists in that span, but his advanced age and role as a bottom-six forward suggest he's not worthy of a lot of fantasy consideration outside of deeper formats.

Impact Staal has an assist in back-to-back contests after enduring a 10-game slump. The 36-year-old center continues to play in more of a defensive role on the third line, but he's been swept up in strong stretches from linemates Jordan Martinook and Seth Jarvis. Staal has three points, 12 shots on net, six PIM, 18 hits and a plus-4 rating over 13 outings this season.

Provides assist in win Staal logged an assist and two PIM in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Penguins.

Impact The helper was Staal's first point since he scored a goal Opening Night versus the Lightning. The 36-year-old center remains an unsung hero of the Hurricanes' system -- he's a consistent defensive center, though that usually comes at the expense of scoring chances. He has two points, 11 shots on net, 18 hits, five blocked shots, four PIM and a plus-4 rating over 12 appearances in his usual third-line role.

Scores in loss to Tampa Bay Staal scored a goal in Friday's 4-1 loss to Tampa Bay.

Impact Staal opened the scoring for the Hurricanes in the latter stages of the first period with a snap shot that went straight past Andrei Vasilevskiy, but Carolina gave up four unanswered goals in the final two periods the rest of the way. Staal's production has been trending in the wrong direction over the last four years, and while he should remain a productive threat based on his middle-six role, don't expect him to deliver goals on a regular basis. He found the back of the net just 10 times in 2023-24.
