Scores in victory Mercer netted a goal on his only shot in 17:56 of ice time in Friday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Mercer buried a rebound off of a Jack Hughes shot to put New Jersey up 4-2 in the middle stanza. Mercer has scored in back-to-back games after being held off the scoresheet in three prior outings. The right-shot winger would need to produce at a more consistent rate to be a trusted asset for fantasy managers, but he's a solid depth option in most formats. Mercer has provided nine goals (two game-winners), 10 helpers, 12 PIM, 62 shots and a plus-8 rating while averaging 18:03 of ice time through 38 appearances.

Although the 23-year-old helped to capitalize on the Devils' power-play opportunities Monday, he's gotten on the scoresheet in just two of the last nine games. Across 37 appearances this year, Mercer has logged eight goals, 10 assists, 26 blocked shots and 18 hits while averaging 18:06 of ice time.
