Meier had a goal and an assist Saturday in a 4-1 win over Chicago. Meier and Dawson Mercer combined for two goals and two assists in a four-goal, third-period comeback. Meier started the season with 12 points (five goals, seven assists) but has struggled since the calendar flipped to November. He has just five goals and five assists in his last 19 games, but he's still firing a lot of pucks. Meier is tied with Filip Forsberg for sixth in the NHL with 103 shots. The 28-year-old Meier has one 66-point season and one 76-pointer, but he's four years removed from that career-best. Maybe Meier is what we see today -- a high-volume shooting, 25-goal, 55-point winger. There's plenty of room on rosters for that kind of player, but he shouldn't be overrated.

Meier scored the game-winning goal in Friday's 3-2 win over the Kraken. Meier, who netted the 200th goal of his NHL career, continues to find ways to produce in his steady top-six role. The 28-year-old left winger has cracked the scoresheet in all but one of his last five appearances, posting two goals and four assists in that stretch. This time, he scored the game-winning goal 53 seconds into the final period with a tip-in into the open net. The Swiss forward has nine goals and 11 assists on the season, and he should remain a steady producer for New Jersey as a member of the second line both on even strength and the power play.

Meier logged two assists, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Capitals. Meier reached 400 career points with his first helper of the contest, which came on a Nico Hischier tally. The winger also assisted on Stefan Noesen's power-play marker in the third period. Meier is in the midst of a run of milestones -- he earned his 200th career assist Friday, his 400th point Saturday and stands one goal away from 200 tallies. This season, he's accumulated 19 points, 83 shots on net, 53 hits and 29 PIM over 26 contests in the Devils' top six.

Meier recorded a power-play goal and an even-strength assist in Friday's 5-4 win over the Red Wings. Meier missed New Jersey's 3-0 loss to the Blues on Wednesday due to a suspension, but he made his presence felt in his return to the ice with his third multi-point effort of 2024-25. He is up to eight tallies and nine assists across 25 games this season, including four points (two goals and two helpers) on the power play.

Meier will miss Wednesday's contest versus the Blues after being suspended Tuesday for one game, per the Department of Player Safety. It will be Meier's first game out of the lineup in the 2024-25 campaign. He's being punished for cross-checking Nashville's Zachary L'Heureux in Monday's 5-2 victory. Nolan Foote should draw into the lineup Wednesday against St. Louis. Meier has accounted for seven goals, eight assists and a plus-8 rating through 24 appearances. The 28-year-old will be eligible to return to action in Detroit on Friday.
