Faber scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Friday's 6-1 preseason win over the Blackhawks.
Faber set up a Mats Zuccarello power-play goal late in the second period before scoring at even strength just 13 seconds into the third. With five points (three on the power play) over three preseason outings, Faber looks ready to turn the page to his second full NHL campaign. The 22-year-old defenseman had 47 points, including 16 on the power play, over 82 games last year, and he could show significant growth in 2024-25.
