  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Buries goal in Monday's win

    Forsling scored a goal on four shots in Monday's 6-5 win over the Oilers.

    The Oilers took a 4-2 lead midway through the second period, but Forsling's tally late in the frame sparked the Panthers' comeback. The defenseman has been limited to two goals over seven games in December, though he's added 28 shots on net to dramatically up his shot rate compared to the 48 shots he had over the first 25 contests of the season. Overall, the 28-year-old is at five tallies, 13 points, 76 shots, 29 blocked shots, 28 hits and a plus-16 rating through 32 appearances.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Scores in Thursday's win

    Forsling scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 7-5 win over the Flyers.

    Forsling ended a six-game slump with the tally. The 28-year-old defenseman tied the game at 5-5 in the third period after the Panthers squandered a 4-2 lead. He's up to four goals, 12 points, 53 shots on net, 25 hits, 23 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating over 27 appearances in a top-four role this season, though he still remains without a power-play role on a regular basis.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Logs helper

    Forsling provided an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Blackhawks.

    Forsling has three helpers and a plus-3 rating over his last two contests, which has helped him to shake off a five-game dry spell. The 28-year-old blueliner remains in a prominent even-strength role for the Panthers, though he has seen minimal power-play time. Forsling is up to 11 points, 37 shots on net, 17 blocked shots, 15 hits, eight PIM and a plus-13 rating over 20 appearances. His current scoring pace would earn him his second 40-point campaign in three years if he can sustain it the rest of the way.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Shines in win

    Forsling logged two assists, three shots on goal, two hits and a plus-4 rating in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Jets.

    Forsling set up Mackie Samoskevich on the opening goal and also had a shorthanded helper on Aleksander Barkov's goal in the second period. This was Forsling's first multi-point effort of the season, and it snapped his five-game skid. The defenseman has three goals, seven helpers, 34 shots on net, 14 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-14 rating over 18 outings this season. Forsling is a huge part of the Panthers' success, but the one knock on him for fantasy is a lack of power-play time.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Banks assist Friday

    Forsling distributed a helper in Friday's 6-4 win over Dallas.

    Forsling collected a secondary assist on Sam Reinhart's third-period tally. Forsling extended his point streak to four games, and he's found the scoresheet in six of his last seven appearances. The left-shot blueliner leads Florida's defensemen with eight points (three goals) through 12 contests. The Sweden native will look to keep it rolling in the second half of a back-to-back versus Dallas on Saturday.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Third goal of season Saturday

    Forsling scored a shorthanded empty-net goal in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.

    The 28-year-old defenseman found the back of the net with his lone shot in this win Saturday, though it came on an empty-netter with less than three minutes left in the game when the Islanders were all out on the attack trying to spark a comeback. Forsling has cracked the scoresheet in four of his last five appearances, tallying two goals and two assists in that span.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Scores overtime game-winner

    Forsling scored the game-winning goal on six shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Golden Knights.

    The six shots were a season high for Forsling, who also logged 28:07 of ice time despite the Panthers dressing seven defensemen. The 28-year-old is off to an excellent start this season, producing two goals, two assists, a plus-9 rating, 14 shots on net, five blocked shots and four hits over seven contests. He's recorded at least 37 points in three straight regular seasons, and while Forsling sees minimal power-play time, he more than makes up for it with steady even-strength offense.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Tallies lone goal in loss

    Forsling scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Senators.

    Forsling got the Panthers on the board in the second period. The defenseman has added a plus-4 rating and four shots on net through two contests while seeing time on the top pairing at even strength. He wasn't in the power-play mix Thursday, with Uvis Balinskis instead getting time with the man advantage. Florida's offense is a strong one, so Forsling should have no trouble contributing, but the lack of a power-play role lowers his scoring ceiling for fantasy purposes.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Provides helper Thursday

    Forsling notched an assist, four hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

    Forsling had gone three games without a point before he got the primary assist on Sam Reinhart's first-period tally. While he's put up solid offense, Forsling's excellent defense has been his calling card in the playoffs. The 28-year-old blueliner is at 12 points, a plus-15 rating, 45 shots on net, 38 hits and 26 blocked shots through 20 playoff appearances.

  • Panthers' Gustav Forsling: Stays hot with goal

    Forsling scored his fourth goal of the postseason in Thursday's 3-2 win against New York in Game 5.

    Forsling extended his point streak to three games after tying Thursday's contest at one apiece in the first period. The 27-year-old defenseman added two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in 23:17 of ice time. Forsling now has at least one point in five of his last six appearances. He's first in scoring among Florida's blueliners during the playoffs -- his steady offensive production in this series has vaulted him past fellow defenseman Brandon Montour (nine points) for the team lead. Forsling is up to four goals, seven assists and a team-high plus-12 rating in 16 postseason contests to this point.

Forsling has three goals, seven assists and a plus-10 rating in 15 postseason appearances so far.
