Lights lamp Monday Olivier scored a goal on two shots, added five hits and blocked two shots in Monday's 6-1 win over the Oilers.
Impact Olivier has three goals and an assist during his three-game point streak. The winger is looking good in a third-line role as the Blue Jackets try to patch holes created by injuries. The 27-year-old is up to six points, six shots on net, 28 hits, 10 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-3 rating over eight outings.

Pockets helper Olivier notched an assist and three hits in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Predators.
Impact Olivier has thrived with more ice time -- he has five points over the last four games since injuries to Columbus forwards forced him into a third-line spot. The 27-year-old winger has added four shots on net, 23 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-2 rating over seven appearances. In the long run, his toughness will be a constant, but he's unlikely to keep up this scoring pace for long, though he's in a great position to top his career high of 15 points from 2022-23.

First two-goal game in NHL Olivier scored twice Tuesday in a 6-2 win over Toronto.
Impact It was his first two-goal game in the NHL. Olivier's first put the Jackets up 3-0 in the first period, and it stood as the winner. He then pushed the score to 5-0 with a one-timer from the top of the crease later in the game. The journeyman 27-year-old has played parts of the last five seasons and had just 13 goals and 21 assists in 168 games coming into 2024-25. Olivier has already delivered three goals and an assist in six games this season. Opportunity has knocked for him, and he'll be eager to prove.

Two-point effort Thursday Olivier scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Sabres.
Impact The rugged fourth-liner came through with a rare multi-point performance -- he had only one in 2023-24, and it came in the last game of the season. The points were also Olivier's first of the current campaign, but through four games he's been doing his job, collecting six PIM, six hits and five blocked shots with a plus-2 rating.

Impact The bulk of Olivier's activity came in the third period, when he fought Blues defenseman Tyler Tucker and then scored an empty-net goal with a second left. Olivier has thrived in the preseason with four goals in four games. The 27-year-old is unlikely to enjoy that kind of production when he opens the regular season in a fourth-line role.

Finds twine Saturday Olivier scored a goal and added two hits in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Impact Olivier went 16 games without a point and sat out another 16 contests as a healthy scratch since his last goal Dec. 5. The 27-year-old plays a physical role in the Blue Jackets' bottom six, so the long scoring drought isn't a surprise. He's at six points, 29 shots on net, 40 PIM, 88 hits and a minus-1 rating through 32 outings overall, production too low to be considered for most fantasy formats.
