Panthers' Nate Schmidt: Scores goal Saturday
Nate Schmidt scored a goal in Saturday's 5-0 win over Winnipeg.Schmidt found the back of the net just 2:07 into the second period to give the Florida Panthers a 2-0 lead. The blueliner hasn't been very productive this season, however, and he earns most of his limited fantasy value via physical stats. He has only three goals and three assists in 17 outings in 2024-25.

Panthers' Nate Schmidt: Deposits goal Saturday
Nate Schmidt scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-3 shootout win over the Flyers.Schmidt has three points and a plus-1 rating over his last five contests. The 33-year-old defenseman has seen time on the third pairing and second power-play unit in that span after opening the campaign in a more limited role when the Florida Panthers were forced to dress seven blueliners. He's up to five points, nine shots on net, 21 hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 14 appearances. If Schmidt can chip in offense somewhat consistently, he could be helpful in deep fantasy formats.
