Martin Pospisil - NHL News & Rumors

Adds assist Tuesday Pospisil logged an assist and a game-high seven hits in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Bruins.

Impact Pospisil was playing his style Tuesday. He was physical as always and assisted on Nazem Kadri's second-period tally. The helper ended a six-game slump for Pospisil, who has contributed 11 points, 93 hits, 43 shots on net, 35 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 32 outings this season. He's on the top line currently, but his usage and production is more in line with that of a middle-six forward.

Provides helper in loss Pospisil notched an assist, four hits, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Penguins.

Impact An in-game adjustment united Pospisil with Nazem Kadri and Jonathan Huberdeau, though it's unclear if that line will stick moving forward. Pospisil did fairly well for himself late in November, earning five points, 12 PIM and eight hits over the last seven games of the month. He's up to 10 points, 36 shots on net, 61 hits, 33 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 25 contests this season, playing mainly in a middle-six role.

Impact Pospisil put the Flames up 2-1 on the power play late in the second when he redirected Nazem Kadri's slap pass past Filip Gustavsson's outstretched pad. He hadn't scored in 19 games dating all the way back to opening night. It's been a solid week for Pospisil, who snapped a 15-game point drought with an assist Tuesday. He isn't as good as his three-game, five-point streak to start the season, but he's not as bad as his recent drought. Wait to see what Pospisil can do over the next week or so before you jump in.

Impact Pospisil plays with an edge -- that's part of his game -- so coaches have to accept his style, but his third-period high-sticking penalty in the offensive zone was costly and was noticed by head coach Ryan Huska. "It's so hard to win in this league that if you overstep the boundary a little bit, then it can cost a team," Huska said. "I think he understands it. He's gotta really work to be a better player in that regard for us." Pospisil, who opened the season with six points through his first eight appearances, enters Tuesday's contest in Montreal on a four-game pointless run.

Impact Pospisil failed to earn multiple points for the first time in three games this season. He has a goal, four assists, four shots on net, 10 hits and a plus-3 rating while centering Jonathan Huberdeau and Anthony Mantha. Pospisil is unlikely to keep up this pace on offense, but in just his second NHL campaign, he's a proven physical force who could rank among the league leaders in hits at the end of the season if he's able to stay healthy.

Registers pair of helpers Pospisil recorded two assists, four hits, five PIM and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

Impact Pospisil has opened the season with a pair of multi-point efforts. He was limited to 9:09 of ice time Saturday, though that was due to his second-period fight with Tyson Foerster. Pospisil is more agitator than scorer, but he's produced four points, two shots on net, five hits and seven PIM across his first two games this season. If his offense stays consistent, he'll be a viable power forward for fantasy purposes.

Earns two points in overtime win Pospisil scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, blocked two shots and logged two PIM in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Canucks.

Impact Pospisil brought the Flames within a goal on a third-period tally, and he also set up Connor Zary's game-winning goal in overtime. As a rookie in 2023-24, Pospisil had 24 points, 238 hits, 107 PIM and a plus-14 rating over 63 appearances. He is in a middle-six role to begin 2024-25, but the key for the 24-year-old this year will be to avoid suspension-worthy plays -- he would be deemed a repeat offender after serving a three-game ban in March.
