Devils' Ondrej Palat: Two-point effort Thursday
Palat produced a goal and an assist in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Kings.
The veteran winger opened the scoring for the Devils by tipping home a Jack Hughes shot from close range late in the second period. Palat has found a groove while skating on New Jersey's top line, and over the last six contests, he's picked up two goals and five points -- an impressive surge for a player who managed just three goals and six points in his first 25 appearances this season.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Nets lone goal in loss
Palat scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.
Palat's goal was the only one of 39 shots from New Jersey that got past Anthony Stolarz. This was Palat's first tally since Nov. 12, and he had just three helpers over 11 games between goals. The veteran winger remains in a top-six role at even strength on paper, producing nine points, 37 shots on net, 51 hits and a minus-3 rating over 30 appearances. In reality, his average ice time is 13:31, which is in line with middle-six usage at best.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Sends helper Saturday
Palat provided an assist and three hits in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Capitals.
Palat chipped in four points, 15 shots on net, 26 hits and 11 blocked shots over 14 outings in November. The 33-year-old winger continues to see top-six usage at even strength with little power-play time. He's up to seven points, 31 shots, 47 hits and a minus-4 rating over 26 appearances this season, so his fantasy value is limited to deep formats.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Notches assist in win
Palat provided an assist, two shots on goal and three hits in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.
Palat's helper was his first since Oct. 27, though he had three goals over nine contests in between assists. The 33-year-old winger remains in a middle-six role, one that's led to somewhat limited contributions. He's at six points, 28 shots on net, 35 hits and a minus-4 rating through 21 appearances. Palat is out of the mix for power-play time, so his path to producing steady offense is a tough one.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Fills empty cage
Palat scored an empty-net goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Palat has three tallies over his last seven games. The 33-year-old winger has filled a middle-six role for much of the campaign, but he's struggled to be consistent on offense. He has five points, 26 shots on net, 28 hits and a minus-5 rating. Palat is likely to be a depth scorer at best while adding some grit to the lineup.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Emerging from slump
Palat scored a goal on four shots and delivered two hits in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Canadiens.
Palat accepted a feed from Jack Hughes and beat Montreal's Sam Montembeault glove side. After going pointless over the first seven games, Palat is heating up. Three of his four points this season have come in the five games since being moved to the second line with Jack Hughes and Jesper Bratt.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Tallies in Wednesday's win
Palat scored a goal on five shots in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Canucks.
Palat stretched the Devils' lead to 4-0 in the second period with his first tally of the campaign. The 33-year-old seems to be heating up with three points over his last five games, which accounts for all of his offense so far. He was listed on the Devils' second line Wednesday, but he saw just 11:24 of ice time. For the season, the veteran winger has added 16 shots on net, 21 hits and a minus-6 rating over 12 appearances.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Picks up assist in win
Palat notched an assist in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Ducks.
Palat hasn't done much on offense this season, earning two assists over 11 appearances. The winger had a season-high 13:53 of ice time Sunday, so while he's been listed on the second line, he's functioning more as a bottom-six option. He's added 11 shots on net, 21 hits and a minus-7 rating, and without more offense, he won't have much appeal in fantasy.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Returns to ice
Palat (personal) was a participant at practice Tuesday morning, Mike Morreale of NHL.com reports.
Palat missed Saturday's contest against Buffalo due to the birth of his second child. The two-time Stanley Cup winner will slot in on New Jersey's third line while being a special teams contributor now that he is back with the team. Palat produced 31 points in 71 regular-season games with New Jersey in 2023-24.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Another down year in NJ
Palat finished the 2023-24 season with 11 goals and 31 points in 71 appearances.
Palat parlayed his strong play in Tampa Bay into a five-year, $30 million contract with the Devils in the 2021-22 offseason, but it's becoming more and more apparent that he was likely carried by playing alongside stars such as Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point in Tampa Bay. After nine consecutive seasons with at least 34 points for the Lightning, Palat has produced meager totals of 23 and 31 points in his first two years in New Jersey. At age 33, Palat's more likely to go down than up next year.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Playing against Blues
Palat (lower body) will return to action versus St. Louis on Thursday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Palat figures to step into the first-line role being vacated by Tyler Toffoli, who is being held out of the lineup for trade-related reasons. In addition, the 32-year-old Palat should be back in a power-play role where he has recorded five of his 24 points this year.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Questionable for Thursday
Palat (lower body) skated before Wednesday's practice, per Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site. He remains questionable for Thursday's contest against St. Louis.
Palat will skate again Thursday before a determination is made about his availability. He has nine goals, 24 points, 86 PIM and 72 hits in 51 contests this season. If Palat returns Thursday, then Kurtis MacDermid might be a healthy scratch versus the Blues.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Dealing with lower-body issue
Palat will be out of action against the Panthers on Tuesday due to a lower-body injury, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Palat's absence will see Jack Hughes shift to the wing in a second-line role alongside Erik Haula. Additionally, Alexander Holtz could see some added power-play opportunities with the second unit while Palat is sidelined. For his part, the 32-year-old Palat will be hard-pressed to get back over the 40-point threshold after also missing that mark last season, in part due to injuries that limited him to just 49 games.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Sidelined Tuesday
Palat (not injury related) will be out Tuesday against the Panthers, per James Nichols.
Palat may get dealt before Friday's trade deadline, as he's not out for injury-related reasons. He has recorded nine goals and 15 assists this season and has a tremendous amount of playoff experience having won a Stanley Cup with the Lightning. If traded, the 32-year-old will likely end up in a bottom-six role for a playoff-bound team.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Records helper in win
Palat posted an assist, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Sharks.
Palat set up a Brendan Smith goal in the third period. With eight points over 12 outings in February, Palat has provided solid supplementary offense in a top-six role. The winger is up to 24 points in 49 contests this season, one point better than he had in the same number of games a year ago. He's added 85 shots on net, 68 hits, 31 PIM and a plus-2 rating.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Game-time call Thursday
Palat is under the weather and will be a game-time decision versus the Kings on Thursday. Coach Lindy Ruff told reporters, "Just be a wait-and-see game-time decision. If he's feeling better, he'll play, if not, he won't be in the lineup," per Mike Morreale of NHL.com.
Palat is seven games back from a lower-body injury that previously cost him the first 10 games of January. In those seven outings, the 32-year-old winger garnered three goals on 14 shots to go with three assists, 10 hits and eight blocks. If Palat were to miss out against LA, Timo Meier could be elevated to a first-line role.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Good to play Thursday
Palat (illness) is expected to play Thursday versus LA, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.
Palat was a game-time decision due to the illness, but he won't end up missing any playing time. He has eight goals and 20 points in 42 appearances in 2023-24. Palat is projected to serve on the first line alongside Nico Hischier and Jesper Bratt on Thursday.

Palat had gone two games without a point entering Tuesday. He helped out on a Nico Hischier equalizer early in the third period. Palat has been seeing top-six minutes since the All-Star break, so he should be in a good position to make regular contributions on offense. The winger has 20 points, 77 shots on net, 50 hits and a minus-2 rating over 42 appearances this season.

Devils' Ondrej Palat: Three-game, five-point streak
Palat scored two goals in a 5-3 loss to Calgary on Thursday.
Palat's first opened the scoring. It was a one-timer from the left faceoff circle off a 2-on-1. His second was a deflection at the left point at 13:46 of the third to cut the score to 4-3. Palat is riding a three-game, five-point streak that includes three goals. His overall pace this season is average, but a streak is a streak, and you need to roll guys like him on and off your roster in order to win.
