Impact The tally continues a strong stretch of play from deeper in the lineup for van Riemsdyk, who has four goals and five assists over his last 11 outings. The 35-year-old winger has primarily played on the fourth line, though he was able to get a little power-play time as well Tuesday.

Scores in Saturday's loss Van Riemsdyk scored a goal in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers.

Impact This was his first goal since Jan. 23, though van Riemsdyk added four assists over the six games between goals. The 35-year-old winger saw just 10:00 of ice time Saturday, and it's not unusual for his minutes to be somewhat limited even though he remains listed on the second line. He's now at 11 goals, 25 points, 60 shots on net and a minus-5 rating across 49 outings this season.

Assists in consecutive contests Van Riemsdyk logged an assist, two hits and two PIM in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Stars.

Impact Van Riemsdyk has a helper in each of the last two games and six points over his last six outings. The second-line winger is up to 10 goals, 13 assists, 58 shots on net, 18 hits, 12 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 46 appearances. He won't stand out much in any category, but van Riemsdyk has been steady enough on offense lately to be a depth option for fantasy managers.

Records helper Friday Van Riemsdyk notched an assist in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over Utah.

Impact Van Riemsdyk showed some grit Friday. He was bloodied by a high stick in the first period and didn't get back into the game until the start of the third. He was wearing a full face shield upon his return, but it didn't stop him from setting up Kent Johnson for the game-tying goal. Van Riemsdyk had a fantastic January with six goals and seven helpers over 14 appearances in a second-line role. The 35-year-old winger is up to 22 points, 58 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 45 contests overall. He likely won't keep producing near a point-per-game pace, but it looks like he won't have to worry about being a healthy scratch any time soon.

Contributes two points in loss Van Riemsdyk scored a goal on three shots and added an assist in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Hurricanes.

Impact Van Riemsdyk has six goals and five assists over 11 outings in January. The 35-year-old winger hasn't come close to that level of offense in any other month this season, and it's allowed him to avoid being a healthy scratch as often as he was earlier in 2024-25. He's put together a good campaign with 10 goals, 20 points, 55 shots on net and a minus-6 rating over 42 appearances. He has a top-six role and enough offense to be worth a look in deeper fantasy formats.

Finds twine Wednesday Van Riemsdyk recorded a goal, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Maple Leafs.

Impact Van Riemsdyk has cracked the scoresheet four times over his last seven appearances, and the 35-year-old veteran has bolstered his stat line to nine goals and 18 points across 41 contests this season. Van Riemsdyk has failed to reach the 40-point mark in his last three campaigns, and that could very well be the case again in 2024-25, limiting his fantasy upside considerably.

Lights lamp twice in win Van Riemsdyk scored two goals in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Sharks.

Impact The 35-year-old winger delivered his second multi-goal performance in January, tipping home a Damon Severson shot early in the second period before icing the game with an empty-netter late in the third. He only has eight goals and 17 points in 38 appearances on the season, but about half of van Riemsdyk's production (four goals, four assists) has come in the last seven games, as he's filled a top-six role while Sean Monahan (wrist), Yegor Chinakhov (upper body) and other Columbus forwards have been sidelined.

Impact Van Riemsdyk has five points over four outings in January, surpassing his four-point December. The winger helped out on second-period tallies by Luca Del Bel Belluz and Denton Mateychuk in this contest. Van Riemsdyk has 14 points, 37 shots on net and a minus-8 rating over 35 appearances. He continues to play in a middle-six role, though the 35-year-old's ice time is often limited compared to where he's lined up.

JANUARY 4, 2025 • Associated Press

Breaks out for three points Van Riemsdyk scored two goals, one on the power play, and added an assist in Thursday's 5-4 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact He snapped an eight-game point drought with the performance, and both goals were vintage for the 35-year-old winger, as they came with him parked right on Cam Talbot's doorstep. Van Riemsdyk's power-play marker was his first of the season, and through 32 appearances to begin his first campaign with the Blue Jackets, he's managed six goals and 12 points.

Lights lamp in overtime loss Van Riemsdyk scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Ducks.

Impact Van Riemsdyk has spent a few games on the top line at even strength while also seeing a power-play role. He has four points over five games since he was last scratched, so it appears the larger role is suiting him well. The 35-year-old is up to four goals, five assists, 27 shots on net and a minus-2 rating through 23 appearances this season. He's not guaranteed to stay in the lineup if his offense slips, but he has the potential to be a decent depth scorer.

Two assists Sunday van Riemsdyk recorded two assists in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Jets.

Impact The 35-year-old veteran cracked the scoresheet for the first time since notching a goal in the 5-1 win over the Bruins on Nov. 18. Despite holding a steady role in the first line and the second power-play unit, this has been a disappointing season for van Riemsdyk, as he's recorded just seven points (three goals, four assists) in 20 games.

Draws in, scores goal Van Riemsdyk scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-1 win over the Bruins.

Impact Van Riemsdyk has been scratched five times over nine contests in November, including the three games prior to Monday. The 35-year-old has at least been productive when in the lineup, adding three goals, two assists and 12 shots on net through 13 appearances. He replaced Mikael Pyyhtia for Monday's game, but van Riemsdyk is far from a lock to be a full-time option moving forward.
