Devils' Paul Cotter: Ends drought with helper
Cotter picked up an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Cotter ended a 15-game point drought when he set up a Luke Hughes tally in the third period. The slump took the shine off of a strong start to the season for Cotter, who has been a regular on the Devils' third line throughout 2024-25. He's still on pace for a career year with 13 points, 45 shots on net, 113 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 35 appearances, but it's unlikely he'll get much power-play time to raise his floor on offense.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Slipping on offense
Cotter has not recorded a point over his last 13 games after being held off the scoresheet in a 3-1 win over the Kings on Thursday.
During the slump, Cotter has 13 shots on net, 14 PIM and 51 hits. He opened the year in great form, but as a bottom-six forward with no path to power-play time, offense is likely to come and go. The 25-year-old has 12 points, 39 shots on net, 103 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 32 appearances.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Finds twine in win
Cotter scored a goal, added two PIM and logged two hits in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.
Cotter has four points, 13 hits and a plus-4 rating over his last five contests. The 24-year-old provided an insurance tally late in the third period to help the Devils pull away with the win. The power forward has seven goals, five assists, 26 shots on net, 52 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-2 rating across 19 appearances. Cotter is likely to continue filling a middle-six role, though he's not expected to be a factor on the power play.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Helps in win
Cotter picked up an assist, two shots on net, one block and five hits in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Canadiens.
In a battle for a puck in the corner, Cotter managed to direct it with his skate to Erik Haula, who set up Jonas Siegenthaler for the Devils' third goal. The third-line winger's hot start to the season has faded a bit, but Cotter has points in two straight and 10 points over 16 outings. Whether he's scoring or not, Cotter makes opponents feel his presence; he's up to a team-high 53 hits.

Cotter has a goal and an assist over his last two games after going three contests without a point. The 24-year-old forward saw 15:54 of ice time Sunday, his second-highest total of the season, though he remains in a third-line role. He's contributed six goals, two assists, 22 shots on net, 33 hits, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating through 12 appearances, offering physical play and steady depth offense.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Adds assist in overtime loss
Cotter notched an assist in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.
After a hot start to the campaign, Cotter has been limited to two points over his last seven games. The 24-year-old winger has seen the occasional top-six look, but his playing style is best suited for third-line usage. He's at five goals, two assists, 20 shots on net, 31 hits, six PIM and a minus-2 rating over 11 appearances. Cotter's ability to rack up hits gives him some appeal in deep formats, though he can be streamed when his offense is hot.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Stays hot in Thursday's win
Cotter scored his fifth goal of the season in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Senators.
The former Golden Knight continued his impressive start to the season, scoring New Jersey's final goal of the game in the third period by banging home the rebound on a Dougie Hamilton shot. Cotter has never produced more than 13 goals or 25 points in an NHL campaign, but for now he has a top-six assignment and has turned it into six points in seven games.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Pots two goals in win
Cotter tallied two goals on four shots and added two hits in Saturday's 5-3 victory over the Capitals.
Cotter has been scorching to start the season with four goals and five points in his first four games. The 24-year-old could have a breakout year in the high-octane offense of the Devils. However, he is unlikely to maintain his current scoring pace. After all, he recorded a career-high 25 points in 76 regular-season contests with Vegas in 2023-24.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Nets game-winner Saturday
Cotter scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Sabres.
Cotter has enjoyed a hot start to the season with two goals and an assist over his first two games. The 24-year-old has added four shots on net, three hits and a plus-3 rating. He was occasionally shuffled out of the lineup during his time with the Golden Knights over the last two years, but he looks set to see consistent bottom-six minutes with the Devils. If his offense follows him back stateside, he should be able to surpass the 25-point campaign he produced in 2023-24.

Devils' Paul Cotter: Two points in win
Cotter scored an empty-net goal and picked up an assist in a 4-1 victory over Buffalo on Friday.
Cotter was part of a three-player deal between the Devils and Golden Knights back in June, and he impressed in his New Jersey debut. Despite a fourth-line role that came with just 10:13 of ice time, the Michigan-born winger still managed to pick up two points and seal the game with his empty-net tally.

Golden Knights' Paul Cotter: Logs helper in win
Cotter notched an assist in Friday's 7-2 win over the Wild.
Cotter has three helpers over his last eight outings, and he's also racked up 21 hits in that span. His heavy playing style is a good fit for the bottom six and could also have value in the playoffs, if he's able to keep his place in the lineup once Mark Stone (spleen) and William Carrier (upper body) return. Cotter has 25 points, 99 shots on net, 226 hits and a minus-9 rating through 73 appearances this season.

Golden Knights' Paul Cotter: Provides assist in loss
Cotter notched an assist, five hits and two blocked shots in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Coyotes.
Cotter has two helpers, five shots on net and 15 hits over his last five games. The 24-year-old continues to play while William Carrier (upper body), Tomas Hertl (knee) and Nicolas Roy (undisclosed) are sidelined. Cotter has produced 24 points, 98 shots on net, 219 hits, 41 PIM and a minus-9 rating through 70 outings this season. He can be an effective physical forward in deep fantasy formats as long as he stays in the lineup.

Golden Knights' Paul Cotter: Gets on scoresheet with helper
Cotter notched an assist, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Predators.
Cotter had been scratched for five of the previous six games, but he got into the lineup when William Carrier (upper body) couldn't play Tuesday. The helper snapped a five-game slump for Cotter. The 24-year-old forward has 23 points, 95 shots on net, 205 hits, 41 PIM and a minus-8 rating through 66 contests, but he doesn't have a guaranteed spot in the lineup when the Golden Knights are at or near full health up front.

Golden Knights' Paul Cotter: Good to go
Cotter (undisclosed) is expected to play Saturday versus the Red Wings, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Sun reports.
Cotter was labeled a game-time decision Saturday, but he'll be good to play in this contest. The 24-year-old has seen time in a middle-six role this season, but the Golden Knights' busy trade deadline, and the return of Pavel Dorofeyev (upper body) will push Cotter to the fourth line Saturday.

Cotter (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision Saturday against Detroit, according to Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Sun.
Cotter has supplied seven goals, 22 points and 196 hits in 62 games this season. If he can't play, Ben Hutton will suit up as a forward in Saturday's contest.

Golden Knights' Paul Cotter: Dishes two assists in loss
Cotter registered a pair of assists in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Sabres.
This was Cotter's first multi-point effort since Dec. 21. The 24-year-old has a career-high 22 points, 85 shots on net, 190 hits and 37 PIM through 60 appearances. He's also earned four power-play points, including one of his assists Saturday. Cotter saw 17:23 of ice time in the blowout loss, and he could join Jonathan Marchessault and William Karlsson on the top line if Brendan Brisson is removed from that spot at some point.

Golden Knights' Paul Cotter: Sparks comeback push
Cotter scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Bruins.
Cotter snapped a six-game point drought with his second-period tally, which got the Golden Knights on the board after they fell behind 3-0. The 24-year-old forward is up to 20 points, 85 shots on net, 188 hits, 37 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 59 appearances this season. While he's had some top-six looks, he's most often played on the third line in recent weeks, providing physicality and energy with limited offense.
