Rickard Rakell notches two assists Thursday against Blackhawks

Rickard Rakell notched two assists in the Penguins' 4-1 win over the Blackhawks Thursday night.

Fantasy Impact

Rakell has struggled to make a consistent impact in the offensive zone of late, picking up points in just one of his last five games (two assists) for the Penguins. The veteran winger remains a gritty forward option despite struggling to find his way onto the score sheet more consistently for head coach Mike Sullivan, registering 59 hits to go along with just 20 points (five goals, 15 assists) in 39 games so far this season.

Rickard Rakell notches assist Friday against Capitals

Rickard Rakell notched one assist in the Penguins' 4-0 win over the Capitals Friday night.

Fantasy Impact

Rakell is looking to replicate his second best career season that saw the forward post 60 points (28 goals, 32 assists) while playing all 82 games for the Penguins, posting a +2 plus/minus with four shots on goal through two games. Rakell offers fantasy managers a decent option with a safe floor as a top-six forward for head coach Mike Sullivan.
