• Hockey Club's Nick Schmaltz: Contributes helper in win

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Schmaltz posted an assist in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blues. Schmaltz had recently spent time on the second line, but he was reunited with Clayton Keller and Barrett Hayton for this contest. This was a return to Utah's original top line, which led them to a productive start to the season. Schmaltz has five helpers over the last six games, and he's up to 12 assists and 29 shots on net without a goal over 14 outings this season. He's still a key part of the offense, and he'll break through eventually.

  Schmaltz recorded two assists, including one on the power play, and three shots on net in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Flames. This was Schmaltz's fourth multi-point game this season, all of which have featured him earning two assists. The 28-year-old is up to 11 helpers without scoring a goal through 11 contests, giving him a share of the team lead in points with Clayton Keller. Schmaltz has added 25 shots on net and a minus-2 rating. He's still a decent depth forward in fantasy for formats that don't put too much importance on goals or physicality.

• Hockey Club's Nick Schmaltz: Gathers helper Saturday

  Schmaltz posted an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Bruins. Schmaltz set up Vladislav Kolyachonok's third-period tally, which tied the game at 1-1. This was the first time Schmaltz has logged just one assist in a game -- he had a trio of two-assist performances and two pointless outings to begin the year. The 28-year-old playmaker is up to seven helpers, 15 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through six appearances. He often plays in a pass-first role on the top line, but he's had enough shot volume for one of them to get through soon.

• Hockey Club's Nick Schmaltz: Two more helpers Saturday

  10/13/2024 • By RotoWire

  Schmaltz picked up two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Rangers. The 28-year-old winger has benefitted early from regular shifts alongside the red-hot Clayton Keller and Barrett Hayton. While Schmaltz is still looking for his first goal of 2024-25, he has four helpers in three games while his linemates have lit the lamp six times between them. Schmaltz also has a secure spot on Utah's top power-play unit, putting him in position to top the career-high 61 points (22 goals, 39 assists) he recorded in 2023-24.

• Hockey Club's Nick Schmaltz: Provides two assists

  10/09/2024 • By RotoWire

  Schmaltz produced two assists, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks. Schmaltz helped out on his linemates' goals, setting up Clayton Keller in the first period and adding a secondary helper on Barrett Hayton's tally in the second. Schmaltz is the playmaker on Utah's top line, having surpassed the 30-assist mark in four of the last five seasons. The 28-year-old also earned his first 60-point campaign in 2023-24. He'll offer solid secondary offense and power-play production in fantasy, but Schmaltz is rarely a reliable source of non-scoring numbers.
