  4D ago • By RotoWire

  Forsling scored a goal on four shots in Monday's 6-5 win over the Oilers. The Oilers took a 4-2 lead midway through the second period, but Forsling's tally late in the frame sparked the Panthers' comeback.

Overall, the 28-year-old is at five tallies, 13 points, 76 shots, 29 blocked shots, 28 hits and a plus-16 rating through 32 appearances.

  30D ago • By RotoWire

  Forsling provided an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Blackhawks. Forsling has three helpers and a plus-3 rating over his last two contests, which has helped him to shake off a five-game dry spell. The 28-year-old blueliner remains in a prominent even-strength role for the Panthers, though he has seen minimal power-play time. Forsling is up to 11 points, 37 shots on net, 17 blocked shots, 15 hits, eight PIM and a plus-13 rating over 20 appearances. His current scoring pace would earn him his second 40-point campaign in three years if he can sustain it the rest of the way.

  11/17/2024 • By RotoWire

  Forsling logged two assists, three shots on goal, two hits and a plus-4 rating in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Jets. Forsling set up Mackie Samoskevich on the opening goal and also had a shorthanded helper on Aleksander Barkov's goal in the second period. This was Forsling's first multi-point effort of the season, and it snapped his five-game skid. The defenseman has three goals, seven helpers, 34 shots on net, 14 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-14 rating over 18 outings this season. Forsling is a huge part of the Panthers' success, but the one knock on him for fantasy is a lack of power-play time.
