Van Riemsdyk scored a goal, distributed two assists and fired two shots on net in Monday's 5-3 win over the Senators.
Van Riemsdyk stole the show in Monday's contest, picking up a power-play helper on Dylan Larkin's goal before later scoring himself near the end of the first period. In the second, van Riemsdyk dished out another apple on the goal scored by his newest linemate, Lucas Raymond. Overall, the 36-year-old van Riemsdyk is up to 11 goals, four assists, 62 shots on net and 20 blocks across 35 games this season.

Whenever he's been called upon over Elmer Soderblom, van Riemsdyk has answered, compiling the ninth-most points on the team and fourth-most goals. While his strong run of play lasts, he is a solid streaming option in deep fantasy leagues.

Van Riemsdyk had a goal and an assist Tuesday in a 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.
He opened the scoring with a shot that he flipped over Casey DeSmith's shoulder from the edge of the crease. Van Riemsdyk has started to warm up a bit in the last month. He has eight goals and one assist in 14 games after putting up just one of each in his first 17 outings. Yes, he's slow and long in the tooth, but JVR's mitts are as silky as they have ever been. He may offer you match-up value in dailies.

Van Riemsdyk scored a power-play goal on two shots and went minus-3 in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to the Predators.

Red Wings' James van Riemsdyk: Finds twine in 1,100th game
Van Riemsdyk recorded a goal, five shots and two hits in Monday's 4-3 loss to New Jersey.

Van Riemsdyk has scored 29 points or more in each of the past nine regular seasons, making the slow start on offense uncharacteristic for him.

Van Riemsdyk (personal) will rejoin the team for Wednesday's practice session, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.
Van Riemsdyk won't be in the lineup to face the Blackhawks on Tuesday but should be an option when the team clashes with the Maple Leafs on Thursday.
