Zachary L'Heureux - NHL News & Rumors | FOX Sports

Scores early for first career goal L'Heureux scored a goal and added two hits in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Canucks.

Impact L'Heureux netted his first NHL tally at 5:28 of the first period. The 21-year-old rookie is doing a good job of sticking in the lineup in a fourth-line role. He has a pair of points over the last three games and a total of four points with 14 shots on net and 39 hits through 15 contests overall. L'Heureux has some promise as a prospect, but he'll need to see a larger role to have widespread fantasy appeal.

Snags assist Thursday L'Heureux posted an assist and two hits in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Oilers.

Impact He snapped a five-game point drought with the helper on a Cole Smith goal in the third period. L'Heureux is up to three assists, 11 shots on net, 35 hits, six PIM and a minus-1 rating over 12 contests while filling a fourth-line role. The 21-year-old winger's gritty style has been a fine fit for the bottom six, and he's doing enough to keep Mark Jankowski in the press box for now.

Pockets helper L'Heureux notched an assist in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.

Impact L'Heureux had the secondary helper on Colton Sissons' go-ahead goal in the second period. This was the second assist in six games for L'Heureux this season. The 21-year-old has added three shots on net, 19 hits, two PIM and a plus-1 rating. He's seeing fourth-line minutes in his first taste of NHL action, but he could earn a look in the middle six later in the campaign if he puts up decent scoring numbers. If he gets hot, he could also be a streaming option in fantasy formats that reward hits.

Earns first career assist L'Heureux notched an assist, six hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact The helper was the 21-year-old's first career point, as he set up an Alexandre Carrier goal in the third period. L'Heureux has played in a fourth-line role over the last three games, racking up two shots on net, 13 hits and a plus-1 rating. He's doing enough to keep Juuso Parssinen and Philip Tomansino in the press box as healthy scratches, and given Luke Evangelista saw just 6:56 of ice time compared to L'Heureux's 13:34 on Saturday, it doesn't look like the rookie is on the bottom rung of the ladder right now.

Called up Monday L'Heureux was recalled by the Predators on Monday, Robby Stanley of NHL.com reports.

Impact L'Heureux hasn't yet made his NHL debut but was present at the Predators' practice session Monday. Although he's with the NHL club for now, it seems unlikely that he'll see a significant role for Nashville as long as the team stays healthy.
