14 Nick Suzuki C

Suzuki notched an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Canucks.

Suzuki set up Josh Anderson for a goal at 14:56 of the second period, igniting a rally of three goals in 1:34 to give the Canadiens full control. Suzuki has gotten on the scoresheet in all five games this year -- he has a goal, four helpers, 15 shots on net and six PIM on his stat line. His assist Thursday was his first point at even strength, as the previous four all came on the power play.

Suzuki posted a power-play assist and four shots on goal in Wednesday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Canucks.

Suzuki has gotten on the scoresheet in all four of the Canadiens' games this year. On Wednesday, he set up the second of Tyler Toffoli's three scores. All four of Suzuki's points (one goal, three helpers) have come on the power play. The 21-year-old center has added 12 shots, 11 hits and four PIM in what's become a fruitful top-six role in an active offense.

Suzuki posted a power-play assist, two hits and two PIM in Monday's 3-1 win over the Oilers.

Suzuki has a point in each of the Canadiens' three games so far, and all of them have come on the power play. He set up Shea Weber for the second goal of the game Monday. While a point-per-game pace may be a bit above Suzuki's capabilities in his second season, he's added nine hits and eight shots on goal in three contests. Fantasy managers can't have many complains about the 21-year-old's production so far.

Suzuki had a power-play assist, one shot, four hits and one blocked shot over 16:41 of ice time in Saturday's 5-1 win over Edmonton.

Suzuki had the primary helper on Jeff Petry's power-play goal, giving the 21-year-old center a point in each of the first two games. After tying for the team lead in power-play points last season, Suzuki's off to a quick start in 2020-21.

Suzuki had a power-play goal, six shots, three hits and two PIM in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to Toronto.

Suzuki scored from a near-impossible angle to pot Montreal's first power-play goal. That's not insignificant, as Montreal's man-advantage unit finished 22nd in the league last year. More growth is expected from the 21-year-old Suzuki, who had 13-28-41 over 71 games during his rookie season in 2019-20 and added another seven points in 10 playoff games. The Habs are off until Saturday when they open a two-game set in Edmonton.

Suzuki scored twice on six shots in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Flyers in Game 6. His first goal came on the power play.

Suzuki was responsible for both of the Canadiens' goals, but it wasn't enough to keep his team's season going. The 21-year-old finished with four goals and three helpers in 10 playoff games. Suzuki looks like the real deal and he should be able to build upon his 13-goal, 41-point output as a rookie heading into 2020-21.

Suzuki netted the game-winning goal and added a power-play assist in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Flyers in Game 5.

Suzuki set up Brendan Gallagher's second-period tally before scoring one of his own in the third period. The 21-year-old Suzuki added three shots on goal, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. Suzuki has collected two goals, three helpers and 14 hits through nine postseason outings.

Suzuki provided an assist, three shots on goal and four hits in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Penguins in Game 3.

Suzuki set up Paul Byron's equalizer at 15:50 of the second period. The rookie Suzuki has a goal, an assist, six shots and eight hits through three games in the series. He produced 13 goals and 41 points in 71 games during the regular season -- the 20-year-old forward can put up respectable scoring numbers as well as modest physicality.

Suzuki scored a goal in Game 1 against Pittsburgh on Saturday.

Suzuki was a force on the ice Saturday and managed three shots, two hits and two blocks in addition to his marker. The young center could provide solid DFS value on Monday's slate considering his price tag is unlikely to jump significantly after just one playoff outing.

Suzuki has 13 goals, 28 assists and is minus-15 while averaging 15:59 of ice time per game over 71 games in 2019-20.

Suzuki, who hasn't missed a game, showed the typical signs of rookie fatigue prior to the NHL suspending the season, posting just one point over the final nine contests. He currently ranks sixth in rookie scoring. Immediately prior to the scoring drop, Suzuki won the team's player of the month award for February, when the 20-year-old forward led the Habs in power-play goals and points (two and five), tied for second in points (10), tied for third in goals (four) and shots (35), and ranked fourth in assists (six). He received ample time on the power play (2:10 per game) and is tied with Tomas Tatar on the team with 14 power-play points. Suzuki impressed head coach Claude Julien with his hockey IQ, and he'll return in a top-six role and as a member of the power-play unit in 2020-21.

Suzuki had an assist, three shots on net and two hits in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Predators.

The assist snapped Suzuki's eight-game pointless streak, the longest such stretch of futility for the 20-year-old. With it being March, talk of the rookie hitting the wall has started. "Last year was a big year for him," head coach Claude Julien told Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette. "World juniors, the Memorial Cup, everything. So a lot of extra games that he's played. Finished in May. By the end of June, he's back on the ice here in development camp, rookie camp. Big season, first season, so eventually those things catch up. That, to me, is just a normal thing." Suzuki is one of four Canadiens to play every game this season.

Suzuki had three shots on net in Thursday's 4-0 loss to the Lightning.

Suzuki has gone seven consecutive games without a point, easily his longest stretch of futility during his rookie season. It may be cliche, but hockey coaches often talk about rookies hitting a wall during the second half of a season, and that may be happening here. The 20-year-old Suzuki is in uncharted territory in terms of games played. Thursday's game was his 69th, surpassing his previous high of 65.

Suzuki picked up a pair of power-play points Tuesday, scoring a goal and tallying an assist in a 4-3 loss to Detroit.

The rookie now has 40 points in 62 games, making Suzuki one of the most prized youngsters in fantasy this season. The 20-year-old was also useful in the faceoff circle, finishing the game at 55 percent. Playing mostly in a top-six role for the Canadiens, Suzuki's fantasy value is as high as it's been all season. Thursday in Washington, he'll look to push his point streak to five games.

Suzuki had a power-play assist and two shots on net in Friday's 4-1 loss to the Penguins.

For the second straight game, Suzuki had a hand in Montreal's lone goal. He scored in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Boston and assisted on Tomas Tatar's power-play goal against the Pens. The Canadiens' offense has gone to sleep over the last five games, scoring just nine goals during that stretch, but Suzuki has participated in four of the scores. The rookie is tied for third on the team with 37 points and second in power-play points with 17.

Suzuki scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Bruins.

Suzuki was part of the traffic in front of Boston goalie Tuukka Rask and changed the direction of Marco Scandella's shot with his hip. The rookie has shown great promise and hockey IQ during his inaugural season while centering Montreal's second line and occupying a spot on the power play. It was his 12th goal of the season and his ninth point in the last nine games. The 20-year-old center is third in scoring among NHL rookies with 36 points.

Suzuki had an assist, one shot, four hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Maple Leafs.

Suzuki's overtime bid rebounded to Ilya Kovalchuk, who buried his second OT winner. The 20-year-old rookie has been smoking since Montreal returned from its bye week, registering eight points (two goals, seven assists) in seven games. He's fourth on the team in assists (24) and tied for fifth in points (35).

Suzuki scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Ducks. He added two shots and a hit over 16:00 of ice time.

Suzuki potted his fifth power-play goal late in the first period, giving him seven points over the last six games. He is second on the team with 11 of his 34 points coming on the power play. The 20-year-old forward, who was sheltered by coach Claude Julien early in the season, has averaged 17:38 of ice time since the beginning of January. There may be reckoning later in the season for the rookie, but for now, Suzuki will be a top-six forward getting ample TOI.

Suzuki generated an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Blue Jackets.

Suzuki helped out on Tomas Tatar's second-period tally. The 20-year-old Suzuki is having an excellent rookie campaign, with 33 points, 95 shots, 44 hits and a minus-4 rating in 54 games. That puts him pretty close to a 50-point pace -- the center appears to be living up to his first-round (2017) draft-pick pedigree.

Suzuki scored an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Panthers.

His first-period goal ended up being the game-winner as Carey Price locked things down in the Habs' crease. Suzuki is heating up, scoring five points (one goal, four helpers) in the last three games, and on the season the rookie has 10 goals and 32 points through 53 contests.

Suzuki had two assists, three shots and two blocked shots in Thursday's 3-1 win over Buffalo.

The 20-year-old Suzuki registered his 20th and 21st assists, helping his more senior teammates. His first was a bang-bang play in front of the net that set up the 37-year-old Ilya Kovalchuk, then later he passed up a potential empty-netter, instead deferring to the 29-year-old Tomas Tatar who iced the game. To accommodate the return of Brendan Gallagher from a concussion, head coach Claude Julien tweaked his lines. In a sign of the coach's confidence in the rookie, Suzuki (17:50 TOI) remained at second-line center while Max Domi (15:53) was dropped to the third line.
