Goal, assist in win Foligno scored an empty-net goal on two shots, dished an assist and added six hits in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Panthers.

Impact Foligno snapped a five-game goal drought with the empty-netter. He had one assist during the slump and picked up another helper on a Craig Smith tally in this contest. This was Foligno's first multi-point effort of the campaign, bringing him to six goals, three assists, 34 shots on net, 65 hits and a minus-4 rating through 20 appearances. He should continue to see steady top-six minutes, but his power-play time from earlier in the season has largely dried up.

Hands out helper in loss Foligno notched an assist, three shots on goal and two hits in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Canucks.

Impact Foligno ended a three-game slump with the helper on Ilya Mikheyev's first-period tally. The 37-year-old Foligno continues to routinely see top-six minutes, but he isn't very consistent on offense. The forward has five goals, two assists, 32 shots on net, 56 hits, 11 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 18 outings this season. He can help fantasy managers in need of grit, but he shouldn't be relied on for offense.

Scores in loss to Detroit Foligno scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact Foligno found the back of the net midway through the second period, but that would be all the offense Chicago would muster against Cam Talbot. Foligno has five goals on the season, and while he's lightened the lamp in two of his last three outings, he's not producing consistently enough to be a reliable fantasy contributor on a game-to-game basis. He's getting the job done as an enforcer, though, racking up 45 hits and nine blocked shots through his 14 contests.

Kicks off rally with fourth goal Foligno scored his fourth goal of the season in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings.

Impact With Chicago down 2-0 after two periods, Foligno sparked his team to life with a seemingly harmless shot early in the third that trickled through Darcy Kuemper's legs and then got knocked across the goal line when the netminder reached back to find it. Foligno snapped a brief six-game goal drought with the fluky tally, and through 12 contests to begin the season he's produced four goals and five points with 41 hits, 26 shots on net and a minus-2 rating.

Lights lamp on power play Foligno scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.

Impact Foligno has scored in back-to-back games and now has three tallies through five contests overall. The winger finished off a passing play with his usual linemates Teuvo Teravainen and Connor Bedard. Foligno has added 13 shots on net, 19 hits and four PIM this season, but if he can stay on the top line and first power-play unit, he'll have some general appeal in fantasy. If he loses those gigs, his interest would be limited to deeper formats that reward his toughness.

Scores second goal Foligno scored a goal on three shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames.

Impact Foligno scored for the second time in four games this season. He's been a wrecking ball with multiple hits in each contest so far, racking up a total of 18 hits with nine shots on net. He was on the third line in the season opener, but it didn't take long for head coach Luke Richardson to move Foligno up alongside Connor Bedard after a lackluster showing from Ilya Mikheyev early on. Foligno will carry some fantasy value as long as he's on the top line.

Buries goal in season opener Foligno scored a goal on two shots and added six hits in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Utah.

Impact Foligno got a piece of an Alex Vlasic shot to bring the Blackhawks within a goal early in the third period. Last season, Foligno matched his highest goal total in the last seven years with 17 tallies and added 20 assists, 192 hits and 57 PIM across 74 contests in his first year with the Blackhawks. The 36-year-old averaged 17:46 of ice time per game in 2023-24, but he saw just 13:54 in Tuesday's loss, indicating a significantly smaller middle-six role ahead in 2024-25. As such, don't expect the veteran winger to match his output from last year.

Impact Foligno didn't play Wednesday while attending to a personal matter but was back on the ice ahead of Friday's matchup. While the team's success has been lacking, the 36-year-old winger got back over the 30-point threshold this season for the first time since 2019-20 when he was with Columbus.

He will be in his nineteenth season next year and his second season with the Blackhawks.

Creates helper in win Foligno notched an assist and six hits in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.

Impact Foligno helped out on Philipp Kurashev's game-tying goal in the last minute of the third period. With two goals and six assists over his last nine outings.

Posts power-play goal Foligno scored a power-play goal and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Kings.

Impact A Philipp Kurashev pass banked into the net after a deflection off Foligno's leg. The goal was Foligno's first in six games, though he also had a four-assist effort in that span. The 36-year-old forward continues to see top-six minutes for the Blackhawks, which has allowed him to produce solid offense. He's up to 16 goals, 34 points (14 on the power play), 126 shots on net, 161 hits, 53 PIM and a minus-22 rating through 62 appearances.

Two power-play points in win Foligno scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Foligno added three shots on goal and two PIM, but he also took a minus-2 rating. The winger had gone three contests without a point entering Tuesday, his longest drought since January. The 36-year-old is up to 29 points (11 on the power play) with 114 shots on net, 149 hits, 49 PIM and a minus-19 rating through 56 appearances. Foligno has bounced around the lineup lately, but he's worth a look as a streaming option when he plays on the top line.

MARCH 6 • ROTOWIRE

Garners helper Foligno recorded an assist, three shots on goal, four hits and a minus-2 rating in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Jets.

Impact Foligno saw a six-game point streak end Wednesday versus the Flyers, but he got right back at it Friday. The winger set up Tyler Johnson's game-tying tally late in the third period. Foligno has 26 points, 103 shots on net, 134 hits and a minus-12 rating through 51 outings. He'll continue to be an intriguing depth option in fantasy as long as he's on the Blackhawks' top line.
