James van Riemsdyk records assist in OT win over Utah

James van Riemsdyk notched an assist in Friday’s 3-2 overtime victory against Utah.

Fantasy Impact

Van Riemsdyk showed toughness, returning in the third period with a full face shield after taking a high stick in the first. Despite the injury, he contributed to Kent Johnson’s game-tying goal, capping off an excellent January with six goals and seven assists over 14 games. The veteran winger now has 22 points, 58 shots on net, and a minus-5 rating through 45 appearances. While his recent scoring surge may not be sustainable, his role in the top six appears secure, making him a viable fantasy option in deeper leagues.

James van Riemsdyk scores in win over Maple Leafs

James van Riemsdyk tallied a goal, four shots on net, and two blocked shots in the Blue Jackets' 5-1 victory over the Maple Leafs on Wednesday. The veteran forward has now recorded points in four of his last seven games.

Fantasy Impact

Van Riemsdyk has bolstered his totals to nine goals and 18 points through 41 contests this season. However, the 35-year-old has not reached the 40-point mark in his last three campaigns, and he appears on track to fall short again in 2024-25. While his recent production shows flashes of value, his overall fantasy upside remains limited, making him more suitable for deeper formats or as a short-term streaming option.
