Kraken's Joonas Donskoi: Records 20th helper
Donskoi produced an assist and four shots on goal in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Jets.
Donskoi helped out on Riley Sheahan's second-period tally to get to the 20-assist mark. The 30-year-old Donskoi snapped a four-game point drought in Sunday's season finale. The Finn had a brutal season with just two goals and a 2.2 shooting percentage in 75 contests, occasionally serving as a healthy scratch. The good news is that there's little chance he does worse, but it's probably wise to take a wait-and-see approach with him next season.

Kraken's Joonas Donskoi: Approaching 20 assists
Donskoi collected an assist in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Wild.
Donskoi has strung together three assists over the last five games, serving as a decent bottom-six winger for the expansion club. Still, it hasn't been an easy adjustment for the Finn, as his shooting percentage has shrunk from a career-high mark with Colorado last season at 19.8 percent all the way down to 2.4 percent with the Kraken. He's only scored twice but has managed 19 assists to keep him from falling off the map completely in fantasy games.

Kraken's Joonas Donskoi: Garners helper Monday
Donskoi notched an assist in Monday's 4-2 win over the Senators.
Donskoi was a healthy scratch Saturday versus the Devils, but he was able to get an assist in his return to the lineup. He's picked up three helpers in his last nine contests while playing in a bottom-six role. The Finn has scraped his way to the 20-point mark with 80 shots on net and a minus-9 rating through 68 appearances in a disappointing season. He's under contract for one more year, so he'll be looking to bounce back in 2022-23.

Donskoi scored a goal in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals.
Donskoi got the Kraken on the board with 3:04 left in the first period. The tally snapped his four-game point drought since his most recent healthy scratch Feb. 22. The 29-year-old winger has had an unlucky first season with the Kraken, posting two goals, 15 assists, 65 shots on net and a minus-9 rating in 55 appearances. Given his subpar production, he could occasionally find himself in the press box.

Kraken's Joonas Donskoi: Snaps season-long goal drought
Donskoi scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Bruins.
One of the league's most puzzling statistical oddities came to an end Tuesday, as Donskoi finally lit the lamp in the third period. The 29-year-old had come up empty on his first 52 shots of the year -- a prolonged struggle for a winger who had scored at least 14 times in each of the last four campaigns. He's up to 15 points, 55 shots on net and a minus-4 rating through 44 contests in 2021-22, but he's likely to remain in a bottom-six role unless he gets hot on offense.
