Hovering above a point per game Trocheck recorded a goal and an assist -- both on the power play -- in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Panthers.

Impact Trocheck delivered against his former team, pushing his point streak to 11 consecutive appearances in the process. With 15 goals and 31 points in 29 games played, Trocheck has regained the elite form he showed in his 75-point campaign with the Panthers back in 2017-18 before a fractured ankle stunted his progress the next season.

Points in 10 straight appearances Trocheck notched an assist, three shots on goal and four hits in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Stars.

Impact Trocheck set up Jordan Martinook for the lone tally in Sunday's game. In his last 10 appearances, Trocheck has five goals and eight assists, but he missed eight games due to an upper-body injury in the middle of his hot run. The 27-year-old center has collected 14 goals, 29 points, 81 shots on net, 53 hits and a plus-4 rating through 28 contests.

One of each Thursday Trocheck scored a goal on two shots, served up an assist and added two hits in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Trocheck opened the scoring at 9:48 of the first period. He then helped close out the win, as his shot generated a rebound for Jesper Fast to bury for the game-winning goal with 29 seconds left in regulation. Trocheck has three points in two games since he returned from an upper-body injury -- he's picking up right where he left off. The 27-year-old has 14 goals, 27 points, 76 shots on net and 44 hits through 26 contests this season. Fantasy managers who haven't already plugged him back into their lineups should make room soon.

Ready to rock Trocheck (upper body) will play in Tuesday's game versus the Blackhawks, Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site reports.

Impact Trocheck is back in action after an eight-game absence. Prior to this injury, Trocheck was leading the team with 13 goals and 24 assists, and he was on a six-game point streak (four goals, four assists). The 27-year-old will center the second line with Andrei Svechnikov and Jesper Fast.

Game-time call Trocheck (upper body) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday night's clash with Chicago, Sara Civian of The Athletic reports.

Impact Trocheck has been skating for over a week, so if he's given the green light ahead of puck drop Tuesday night, he shouldn't have any limitations against the Blackhawks. The 27-year-old forward has racked up 13 goals and 24 points in 24 games this campaign.

Still unavailable Trocheck (upper body) won't play in Saturday's game versus the Lightning, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.

Impact Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said that Trocheck has been able to skate on his own, but the 27-year-old center needs medical clearance before re-entering the lineup. However, once Trocheck gains clearance, he should be ready to reenter the lineup right away because he's been on the ice for more than a week now. Prior to this injury, Trocheck was leading the Hurricanes in goals (13) and points (24).
