Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Scores in loss to Detroit
Nick Foligno scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Red Wings.Foligno found the back of the net midway through the second period, but that would be all the offense Chicago would muster against Cam Talbot. Foligno has five goals on the season, and while he's lightened the lamp in two of his last three outings, he's not producing consistently enough to be a reliable fantasy contributor on a game-to-game basis. He's getting the job done as an enforcer, though, racking up 45 hits and nine blocked shots through his 14 contests.

Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Lights lamp on power play
Nick Foligno scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.Foligno has scored in back-to-back games and now has three tallies through five appearances overall. The winger finished off a passing play with his usual linemates Teuvo Teravainen and Connor Bedard. Foligno has added 13 shots on net, 19 hits and four PIM this season, but if he can stay on the top line and first power-play unit, he'll have some general appeal in fantasy. If he loses those gigs, his interest would be limited to deeper formats that reward his toughness.

Blackhawks' Nick Foligno: Scores second goal
Nick Foligno scored a goal on three shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Flames.Foligno scored for the second time in four games this season. He's been a wrecking ball with multiple hits in each contest so far, racking up a total of 18 hits with nine shots on net. He was on the third line in the season opener, but it didn't take long for head coach Luke Richardson to move Foligno up alongside Connor Bedard after a lackluster showing from Ilya Mikheyev early on. Foligno will carry some fantasy value as long as he's on the top line.
