• Canucks' Alexander Edler: Collects power-play point

  18D ago •

  Edler registered a power-play assist during Thursday's loss to the Wild. Edler only played eight seconds on the man advantage, but that's all that was needed to generate the goal. It was the veteran blueliner's first power-play point since Nov. 21. He was replaced on the second power-play unit by Tyler Myers, while Quinn Hughes quarterbacked the top unit. Edler's fantasy value takes a hit with the lack of power-play time if that's a permanent change, as he has just two points in his last 14 appearances.
