Noah Cates - NHL News & Rumors

Scores again Monday Cates scored a goal in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Penguins.

Impact Cates' goal streak is up to four games, and he has seven points over his last seven outings. This is arguably the best stretch of his career. He's up to six tallies, 12 points, 31 shots on net, 33 hits and a plus-7 rating through 31 appearances. Cates was moved up to the second line Monday, but until he starts seeing regular power-play time, it's tough to trust that his offense will last.

Keeps rolling with two-point effort Cates scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Cates tied the game at 2-2 at 8:48 of the third period. The teams exchanged a few more goals after that, and Cates was on the ice to feed Owen Tippett for the game-winner 3:30 into overtime. With four goals and two assists over his last six contests, Cates is in the midst of one of the best stretches of his career. The 25-year-old is up to five tallies, six helpers, 30 shots on net and a plus-7 rating over 30 appearances this season. While his recent play is encouraging, his history doesn't indicate an ability to sustain this level of production, especially when he remains in a third-line role.

Scores in loss Cates scored a goal in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact Cates has three points over his last four games, including two goals in that span. He won't wow anyone with a third-line role and no power-play time, but he's done enough to routinely stay in the lineup for the better part of two months after being scratched for four of the first five contests of the season. Cates is up to eight points, 27 shots on net, 31 hits, 16 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 28 appearances. His spot in the lineup is safe since the Flyers aren't carrying an extra forward.

Tallies opening goal Cates scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Cates' goal was his first since Nov. 23, and he had just one assist over seven contests between tallies. The 25-year-old typically doesn't score a lot while playing in a third-line role, though he has been able to maintain that spot since Oct. 22. He's up to six points, 22 shots on net, 30 hits, 15 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 25 appearances. He does a little bit of everything, but Cates' offense is too limited to help most fantasy managers.

Chips in with helper Cates notched an assist in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blues.

Impact Cates has four points over his last nine outings, which is fine production for a bottom-six forward on a low-scoring team. Overall, he has five points, 17 shots on net, 27 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating through 21 appearances. Cates has mostly seen third-line usage lately, and he's been sharp enough defensively to stick in the lineup despite his poor scoring numbers for the year.

Nets equalizer Saturday Cates scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Cates picked up his third point in the last five games when he tied the game at 2-2 midway through the third period. The 25-year-old center had just 11:36 of ice time, but he's been playing a solid game lately, which has kept him on the second line at even strength. Cates is up to one goal, four points, 14 shots on net, 25 hits and a plus-9 rating over 17 appearances this season, but he hasn't been scratched since Oct. 19.

Deals helper Wednesday Cates logged an assist and three hits in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Cates has played alongside Matvei Michkov for a couple of games now, though line combinations change frequently in Philadelphia. This was Cates' second helper over the last four contests. The 25-year-old forward is up to three assists, 11 shots on net, 23 hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating over 16 appearances. He's gone 11 games without taking a minus rating, which indicates that he's at least been defensively stable at even strength.

Chips in with assist Cates logged an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Senators.

Impact Cates snapped an eight-game point drought with his helper on a Travis Konecny goal in the second period. The good news is Cates stayed in the lineup during his scoring slump -- he had been scratched for four of the first five games of the season. The 25-year-old has earned just two assists with 10 shots on net, 18 hits and a plus-3 rating over 13 appearances in 2024-25.

Sets up empty-netter Cates produced an assist and two hits in Saturday's 7-5 win over the Wild.

Impact Cates found Sean Couturier for an empty-net goal to close out the high-scoring contest. This was Cates' fourth appearance in the Flyers' eight games so far, as he's often been a healthy scratch early on. He's played in three straight, so he may be gaining favor with head coach John Tortorella. Cates has added nine hits and one shot on goal, and he's likely to be limited to a bottom-six role. The 25-year-old put up 18 points in 59 regular-season contests last year, though he had 38 points in 82 games the year before.

Scores first goal in a month Cates scored an unassisted goal in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

Impact That goal snaps a 14-game goal drought for Cates, who has just four goals and 14 points through 53 games this season. He has seen limited ice time recently, hovering between 10 and 15 minutes per game in March. He also hadn't registered more than a single shot in any of the nine games before Monday. Add in his career-low 6.3 shooting percentage, and there simply isn't much upside in Cates' game right now.

Unvailable Thursday Cates (personal) won't play Thursday versus the Canadiens.

Impact Cates has been in a bottom-six role recently and hasn't recorded a point in his last nine games, so his absence won't make waves in fantasy. Cam Atkinson will draw into the lineup Thursday with Cates out. The Flyers return home to face the Blackhawks on Saturday.

Scores winning goal Cates scored what turned out to be the game-winning goal in Tuesday's win against Florida.

Impact It was just the second goal of the season for Cates. A foot injury has limited him to 29 games this season. Even when playing, he has just six points on the campaign. It's been a notable drop off from last year's rookie season of 13 goals and 38 points.
