Lee scored a goal on five shots and added seven hits in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Canadiens.
Lee has two goals on 22 shots over the first five games of the season. The 34-year-old winger saw 18:25 of ice time Saturday, his highest mark of the season, and he could be in line for a promotion to the top six with Anthony Duclair (leg) in doubt moving forward. Lee also has 13 hits, so a move off the third line could help his offense while giving him a path to fantasy utility thanks to his high totals in shots and hits.
