Barzal scored a goal, dished out an assist, placed four shots on net, recorded a block and served two PIM in Saturday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Sabres. Barzal was involved in every stage of New York's offense Saturday, as he scored a goal near the end of the second period before he assisted Emil Heineman's game-tying tally to send the game to overtime. Barzal also recorded a backhanded score for the Islanders' lone tally of the shootout. With the goal and assist in regulation, he is up to 10 goals, 19 assists, 82 shots on net and 25 blocks through 35 games this season. Despite being listed as a game-time decision for each of the past two contests, the 28-year-old center hasn't missed a beat, recording three points over the last two outings to extend his point streak to seven games. He's well on his way to the seventh 50-plus point campaign of his career and has 70-80-point potential if he can stay hot in the second half of the season, giving him strong value in all point-based fantasy formats.

Barzal (undisclosed) is expected to be in the lineup Friday versus the Canucks, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports. Barzal was labeled a game-time decision for the second contest in a row, but it looks like he'll be good to go again. The 28-year-old is clearly managing some sort of issue, but it hasn't been bad enough to keep him out of games yet.

Barzal is considered a game-time decision for Friday's matchup against the Canucks due to maintenance purposes, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports. Barzal was absent from Friday's morning skate, but he's slated to take warmups ahead of puck drop against Vancouver. The 28-year-old was also deemed a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against the Red Wings before ultimately being cleared to suit up.

Barzal (undisclosed) is expected to play against Detroit on Tuesday, according to Andrew Gross of Newsday.

Barzal scored a goal in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Panthers. Barzal found the back of the net at the 9:03 mark of the second period with a backhander. That was his lone shot of the game, and it was also all the offense the Islanders would muster. Barzal has scored in two of his last three games and has four points over that span, suggesting he is leaving his November slump behind. He posted nine points in 15 games that month.
