Scores in back-to-back games Roslovic scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Blues.

Impact Roslovic got off to a slow start this season with just two shots over his first two outings, but he's been turning things around of late with back-to-back goals in his last two contests while attempting six shots in that span. Roslovic should continue to have plenty of opportunities to produce as a top-six forward, but expectations should be tempered since he's cracked the 40-point mark just twice in his previous eight seasons in the league.

Lights lamp in Friday's win Roslovic notched a goal in Friday's 4-1 win over the Penguins.

Impact Roslovic found the back of the net for the first time this season and closed out the scoring midway through the third period with a wrist shot from the right circle following set-ups from Jesperi Kotkaniemi and Dmitry Orlov. Roslovic should remain in a top-six role for the Hurricanes, but he's not expected to be a primary source of scoring. He hasn't recorded more than 45 points in a regular season throughout his nine-year career.

OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Signs with Hurricanes Roslovic inked a one-year, $2.8 million contract with the Hurricanes on Thursday.

Impact Roslovic split the 2023-24 campaign between Columbus and the Rangers, picking up 31 points in 59 regular-season games. Roslovic had a pair of goals and six assists in 16 playoff games for the Rangers. He should play in a middle-six role for Carolina in 2024-25.

Picks up assist in overtime win Roslovic recorded an assist in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 3.

Impact Roslovic was credited with the secondary helper on Alexander Wennberg's tally in overtime. While he hasn't scored in nine games, Roslovic has picked up three assists over his last four contests. The 27-year-old winger began the playoffs in a top-line role, but he's now on the third line with Filip Chytil taking his spot alongside Chris Kreider and Mika Zibanejad. Roslovic is at eight points, 18 shots on net, nine hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 13 playoff appearances, but his scoring chances are likely to be limited as long as he remains in the bottom six.

MAY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Hands out helper Roslovic logged an assist in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Hurricanes in Game 1.

Impact Roslovic set up the first of Mika Zibanejad's two goals in the first period. While he hardly stands out on offense, Roslovic has been steady for the Rangers in the playoffs -- he's on a six-game point streak (three goals, three assists) that dates back to the regular-season finale. The 27-year-old is still in a top-line role at even strength, though he's prone to having shifts skipped depending on the flow of the game.

MAY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Deposits empty-netter Roslovic scored an empty-net goal on the power play in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Capitals in Game 4.

Impact Roslovic was able to put the icing on the cake for the Rangers' first-round sweep over the Capitals. The 27-year-old has two goals (both on the power play) and two assists over four playoff contests, and he's added seven shots on net and five hits. Roslovic is seeing top-six minutes at even strength, but he shouldn't be expected to sustain his scoring success as the matchups get tougher later in the postseason. He had just nine goals and 31 points over 59 regular-season outings between the Blue Jackets and the Rangers.

APRIL 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Opens scoring Monday Roslovic scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 4-0 win over the Senators.

Impact Roslovic snapped a four-game point drought with the tally. The 27-year-old winger has been decent for the Rangers with eight points over 19 contests since he was traded from the Blue Jackets. On the year, he has 31 points, 117 shots on net and a minus-10 rating through 59 appearances. Roslovic ended the regular season on the Rangers' top line, but he could be quickly shuffled down the lineup if the team has any stumbles in the playoffs.

APRIL 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

First points with new team Roslovic scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-3 loss to Tampa Bay on Thursday.

Impact The points were Roslovic's first as a member of the Rangers (four games). The goal was sweet. He took a cross-ice feed and one-timed a wicked shot past Andrej Vasilevskiy from the bottom of the left circle. Roslovic is skating on the top line alongside Chris Kreider and Mika Zibanejad, and his pesky, on-all-the-time approach has been a good fit there. He could be a valuable waiver pickup in this situation.

MARCH 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Traded to Rangers Roslovic has been traded to the Rangers for a 2026 fourth-round pick that could become a third-rounder if New York makes it to the Stanley Cup final, per Brian Hedger of The Columb...

Impact Roslovic has been battling with injuries this year and has only played 40 games, In his last five games he's recorded two goals and four assists. On the year the 24-year-old has six goals and 17 assists. He will be a nice addition for the Rangers and should slide into a second-line role.

MARCH 8, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Two points in Tuesday's loss Roslovic scored a shorthanded goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Penguins.

Impact The 27-year-old pending free agent is doing everything he can to enhance his trade value. Roslovic has four multi-point performances in the last eight games, and in 12 contests since the All-Star break he's amassed three goals and 12 points while seeing top-line minutes alongside Johnny Gaudreau and Boone Jenner.

MARCH 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Stays warm Saturday Roslovic notched a pair of assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.

Impact Roslovic helped out on tallies by linemates Boone Jenner and Johnny Gaudreau. After sputtering on offense for much of the season, Roslovic has 10 points over his last nine outings since moving to the top line. He's up to 20 points, 74 shots on net and a minus-11 rating through 37 contests overall, though he's worth a look in fantasy as long as he can stay on the top line.

MARCH 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Pots game-winning goal Roslovic had an assist and scored the game-winning goal in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Rangers.

Impact It's just Roslovic's fourth goal through 34 games. It's been a tough year. He hasn't scored often, has battled through injuries, and was even a healthy scratch in January. Still, there are some encouraging signs, if you're looking for a nugget of hope. He has points in five of the last six games for a total of two goals and five assists. During that stretch, he's been well over his season average of 16:11 of ice time in five of six games. It's also possible that he's due for some positive regression with his shooting percentage. He's shooting just 6.2 percent this year and has a career average of 11.8.

FEBRUARY 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up assist Roslovic posted an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Kings.

Impact Roslovic has a goal and two assists, as well as 12 shots on net, over his last three games. He's struggled at times to avoid being a healthy scratch, but the 27-year-old winger has found some success in a top-line role recently. Overall, Roslovic has a modest 13 points with 54 shots on net, 18 hits, 12 PIM and a minus-11 rating over 31 appearances this season.

FEBRUARY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy scratch against Kraken Roslovic was a healthy scratch for Sunday's 4-2 loss to Seattle, per Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.

Impact Roslovic logged just 10:42 of ice time in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to Vancouver. He has two goals, 10 points and 40 shots on net in 26 appearances this season. Roslovic was replaced in the lineup Sunday by Emil Bemstrom.

JANUARY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out Sunday Roslovic (undisclosed) is not expected to play Sunday against the Kraken.

Impact Roslovic was dealing with a minor upper-body issue earlier this week but hadn't missed a game because of it. It's unclear if his absence Sunday is related. The 26-year-old has just two goals and 10 points in 26 games this season. Emil Bemstrom is expected to dress while Roslovic is out.

JANUARY 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Set to play Saturday Roslovic (upper body) is slated to play Saturday against Vancouver, Dave Maetzold of Bally Sports Ohio reports.

Impact Roslovic exited Thursday's 5-2 win over Calgary because of the injury, but it seems he won't miss a full game. He has two goals and 10 points in 25 contests in 2023-24. Roslovic is projected to play on the second line alongside Adam Fantilli and Boone Jenner based on Saturday's practice, per Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site.

JANUARY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Exits contest in third period Roslovic (upper body) didn't finish Thursday's game versus the Flames after he was boarded by Jonathan Huberdeau in the third period, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official sit...

Impact Roslovic was bleeding heavily after he was pushed face-first into the boards. The 26-year-old logged two PIM and went minus-1 in 10:44 of ice time in Thursday's game. He has just two assists over 11 games since he returned from an ankle injury in late December, so fantasy managers are unlikely to notice his absence if he can't suit up Saturday in Vancouver. Mathieu Olivier or Emil Bemstrom are options to suit up if Roslovic misses time.

JANUARY 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will play against Leafs Roslovic (ankle) will be in the lineup versus Toronto on Friday, Coby Maeir of the 1st Ohio Battery reports.

Impact Roslovic is expected to slot into a fourth-line role which will relegate Mathieu Olivier to the press box. The 26-year-old winger was averaging 1:38 of ice time with the man advantage prior to his injury absence and could link up with the No. 2 unit against the Maple Leafs.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Could return Friday Roslovic (ankle) is expected to return either Friday versus the Maple Leafs or Saturday versus the Sabres, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.

Impact Roslovic won't play versus New Jersey on Wednesday, but he is close to a return from an ankle fracture. The 26-year-old forward will miss his 21st consecutive game Wednesday. Roslovic will likely be eased back in upon his return, so he should be expected to take a bottom-six role once activated from injured reserve.

DECEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Likely to miss next two games Roslovic (ankle) isn't expected to return until after the Christmas break, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports Wednesday.

Impact Columbus will play against Washington on Thursday and Toronto on Saturday before the break. Roslovic hasn't been in the lineup since Nov. 12 due to the injury. He has two goals and eight points in 14 outings this year.

DECEMBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Will miss 4-6 weeks Roslovic suffered a fractured ankle during Sunday's loss to the Rangers and will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks. The 26-year-old winger has been placed on injured reserve.

Impact Roslovic has gotten off to a solid start with two goals and eight points through 13 games this season, so this is somewhat of a significant loss for the Blue Jackets. With Roslovic facing a long-term absence, Mathieu Olivier and Emil Bemstrom will both be in contention for expanded roles for the foreseeable future.

NOVEMBER 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Three-point performance Thursday Roslovic scored an even-strength goal and added two power-play assists in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canadiens.

Impact Despite his impressive efforts in helping the Blue Jackets build a 3-1 lead midway through the second period, Roslovic arguably ended up being the goat on the night as it was his inadvertent screen of Elvis Merzlikins that allowed Cole Caufield to pot the OT winner. Roslovic is getting a chance to prove he can be a top-six forward for Columbus, and the 26-year-old has a four-game point streak going in which he's racked up two goals and six points, but he'll need to reduce the defensive lapses in crucial moments to hang on to his spot.

OCTOBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

First goal is OT winner Roslovic scored the game-winning goal in Saturday's 5-4 overtime victory over the Wild.

Impact He also added eight shots, a hit and a blocked shot to his ledger. The 26-year-old was nearly the goat on the night, committing a terrible turnover in the neutral zone that led to a Minnesota scoring chance less than a minute earlier, but after Columbus survived that flurry, Roslovic took the puck the other way, split the defense and beat Filip Gustavsson under his blocker arm. Roslovic moved up into the top six Saturday and even saw a bit of second-unit power-play time with Patrik Laine (upper body) unavailable, but he's tough to rely on as a fantasy asset given his erratic play and inconsistent role.

OCTOBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Earns first point of new campaign Roslovic skated to a plus-2 rating with an assist in Friday's 3-1 win over the Flames.

Impact Roslovic is back on the horse after an uninspiring start to the new campaign. Prior to this contest, a pair of blocked shots held up as Roslovic's only meaningful contribution between two games that sandwiched his dreaded "did not play - coach's decision" designation last Saturday. Drafted 25th overall in 2015, Roslovic managed a career-high 33 assists among 44 total points last season, but he has an uphill battle this time around as a bottom-six forward. Additionally, he has been adjusting to a new coach in Pascal Vincent.

OCTOBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy scratch Saturday Roslovic was a healthy scratch for Saturday's win over the Rangers.

Impact After a lackluster showing in the Blue Jackets' opener that saw Roslovic manage just one shot on goal and a minus-1 rating, the 26-year-old found himself in the press box. New coach Pascal Vincent is still trying to figure out what his best roster looks like, so Roslovic could continue to yo-yo in and out of the lineup, but with a number of younger forwards pushing for playing time -- a group headlined by Adam Fantilli, the third overall pick in the 2023 NHL Draft -- Roslovic could have trouble maintaining a regular role.
