Arvidsson closed out January with a total of six goals and four assists over 14 contests.

Rotowire
Arvidsson scored a power-play goal, fired four shots on net, recorded two blocked shots and dished out two hits in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Canadiens.
Arvidsson put Boston on the board less than two minutes into the second period to level the score at one apiece.

Arvidsson is on track to finish the campaign closer to the 45-point range and is a viable streaming option as long as he holds onto a spot in Boston's top six.

Bruins' Viktor Arvidsson: Scores game-winner Sunday
Rotowire
Arvidsson scored the game-winning goal in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Penguins.
Arvidsson opened the scoring for Boston with a backhander at the 11:00 mark of the first period, and that would be all the offense the team would generate throughout the game. For Arvidsson, this was his ninth goal of the campaign and it extended his current point streak to four contests. Since returning from a five-game absence between Dec. 14 and Dec. 21 due to a lower-body injury, Arvidsson has been putting up decent numbers with eight points (two goals, six assists), 19 shots on net and a five-plus rating in nine outings.

Rotowire
Arvidsson scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

Rotowire
Arvidsson scored a goal on five shots in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Maple Leafs.

For the season, the 32-year-old winger is up to five goals, three helpers, 44 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 17 appearances. If he can keep chipping in a point roughly every other game, he'll continue to be a fine option in a middle-six role, though his fantasy utility isn't particularly strong.

Bruins' Viktor Arvidsson: Game finally warming up
Rotowire
Arvidsson scored a goal Saturday in a 2-1 win over Carolina.
Arvidsson earned his first game-winner of the season after Casey Mittelstadt lofted the puck out of the defensive zone, and he chased it down to create a partial breakaway.

After putting up just one assist (14 shots) in his first seven games, the speedy veteran has five points, including three goals, and 17 shots in his last seven outings.
