Staal recorded an assist Saturday in a 3-2 win over the Devils.
Staal's secondary helper, which transpired in 5-on-5 action, gives him six points (three goals and three assists) through 14 games.

Staal netted a power-play goal in Sunday's win over Washington.

Despite being 35 years of age, Staal was still a productive player for Minnesota this season, picking up 19 goals and 47 points in 66 regular-season games before adding four helpers and a goal in four postseason contests.

Staal scored a goal on three shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Canucks.
Staal ended the four-game series with a goal and four helpers, but that's all he'll get in the playoffs, as the Wild lost the series 3-1. The 35-year-old center will likely still have a large role in the lineup during the 2020-21 season.

Staal has been a mainstay atop the depth chart at the center position this year, including averaging 2:34 of ice time on the top power-play unit.
