• Flyers' Noah Cates: Snags helper in overtime loss

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Cates provided an assist, three shots on goal and four hits in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs. Cates has a helper in three straight contests. He's gotten on the scoresheet in 10 of 12 games dating back to Dec. 10, earning six goals and five assists in that span. The 25-year-old forward has made the third-line center spot his own this season, and the offense is an added bonus. He's at 16 points, 41 shots on net, 40 hits, 20 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 36 appearances. The offense doesn't stand out, but he's offering decent non-scoring production to be helpful in deeper fantasy formats.

  21D ago • By RotoWire

  Cates scored a goal in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Penguins. Cates' goal streak is up to four games, and he has seven points over his last seven outings. This is arguably the best stretch of his career. He's up to six tallies, 12 points, 31 shots on net, 33 hits and a plus-7 rating through 31 appearances. Cates was moved up to the second line Monday, but until he starts seeing regular power-play time, it's tough to trust that his offense will last.

  23D ago • By RotoWire

  Cates scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blue Jackets. Cates tied the game at 2-2 at 8:48 of the third period. The teams exchanged a few more goals after that, and Cates was on the ice to feed Owen Tippett for the game-winner 3:30 into overtime. With four goals and two assists over his last six contests, Cates is in the midst of one of the best stretches of his career. The 25-year-old is up to five tallies, six helpers, 30 shots on net and a plus-7 rating over 30 appearances this season. While his recent play is encouraging, his history doesn't indicate an ability to sustain this level of production, especially when he remains in a third-line role.

• Flyers' Noah Cates: Scores in loss

  Cates scored a goal in Wednesday's 6-4 loss to the Red Wings. Cates has three points over his last four games, including two goals in that span. He won't wow anyone with a third-line role and no power-play time, but he's done enough to routinely stay in the lineup for the better part of two months after being scratched for four of the first five contests of the season. Cates is up to eight points, 27 shots on net, 31 hits, 16 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 28 appearances. His spot in the lineup is safe since the Flyers aren't carrying an extra forward.
