• Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Scores in loss to Detroit

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Foligno scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Red Wings. Foligno found the back of the net midway through the second period, but that would be all the offense Chicago would muster against Cam Talbot. Foligno has five goals on the season, and while he's lightened the lamp in two of his last three outings, he's not producing consistently enough to be a reliable fantasy contributor on a game-to-game basis. He's getting the job done as an enforcer, though, racking up 45 hits and nine blocked shots through his 14 contests.

• Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Kicks off rally with fourth goal

  11D ago • By RotoWire

  Foligno scored his fourth goal of the season in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Kings. With Chicago down 2-0 after two periods, Foligno sparked his team to life with a seemingly harmless shot early in the third that trickled through Darcy Kuemper's legs and then got knocked across the goal line when the netminder reached back to find it. Foligno snapped a six-game goal drought with the fluky tally, and through 12 contests to begin the season, he's produced four goals and five points with 41 hits, 26 shots on net and a minus-2 rating.

• Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Lights lamp on power play

  28D ago • By RotoWire

  Foligno scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks. Foligno has scored in back-to-back games and now has three tallies through five appearances overall. The winger finished off a passing play with his usual linemates Teuvo Teravainen and Connor Bedard. Foligno has added 13 shots on net, 19 hits and four PIM this season, but if he can stay on the top line and first power-play unit, he'll have some general appeal in fantasy. If he loses those gigs, his interest would be limited to deeper formats that reward his toughness.

• Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Scores second goal

  30D ago • By RotoWire

  Foligno scored a goal on three shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames. Foligno scored for the second time in four games this season. He's been a wrecking ball with multiple hits in each contest so far, racking up a total of 18 hits with nine shots on net. He was on the third line in the season opener, but it didn't take long for head coach Luke Richardson to move Foligno up alongside Connor Bedard after a lackluster showing from Ilya Mikheyev early on. Foligno will carry some fantasy value as long as he's on the top line.

• Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Buries goal in season opener

  10/09/2024 • By RotoWire

  Foligno scored a goal on two shots and added six hits in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Utah. Foligno got a piece of an Alex Vlasic shot to bring the Blackhawks within a goal early in the third period. Last season, Foligno matched his highest goal total in the last seven years with 17 tallies and added 20 assists, 192 hits and 57 PIM across 74 contests in his first campaign with the Blackhawks. The 36-year-old averaged 17:46 of ice time per game in 2023-24, but he saw just 13:54 in Tuesday's loss, indicating a significantly smaller middle-six role ahead in 2024-25. As such, don't expect the veteran winger to match his output from last year.
