For Canadiens' Joe Veleno, revenge is best served on cold Chicago ice After being dealt away from Blackhawks during the summer, Habs forward aims to "show them what they missed out on."

Scores in Sunday's win Veleno scored a goal and added five hits in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Oilers.

Impact Veleno got on the scoresheet for the second game in a row. That follows a stretch of 10 games without a point. The 25-year-old forward will likely remain limited in his scoring potential in a bottom-six role -- he's most often been on the fourth line this year. He's at three points, 24 shots on net, 63 hits, 18 blocked shots, 13 PIM and a minus-9 rating over 27 appearances so far.

Pockets helper in overtime loss Veleno logged an assist and four blocked shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers.

Impact Veleno saw 15:51 of ice time in this contest, his second-highest total of the season. The 25-year-old also landed on a line with defensive ace Jake Evans, which could lead to more ice time if that duo, plus Brendan Gallagher, stays together. Veleno is not a fantasy option in most formats -- he has just two points with 23 shots on net, 58 hits and a minus-10 rating over 26 outings.

Joe Veleno's role with Canadiens comes into sharper focus Tied for team lead with 48 hits and has gained Martin St. Louis's confidence with defensive play, penalty-kill effort and faceoff work.

Gets first goal, point of season Veleno scored a goal on four shots, blocked three shots and added two hits in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Capitals.

Impact The goal was Veleno's first point with the Canadiens. The Montreal native has gone from healthy scratch to potentially a middle-six role as the Canadiens try to navigate without Kirby Dach (foot), Alex Newhook (ankle) and Jake Evans (undisclosed). Veleno has added 14 shots on net, 30 hits, 10 blocked shots, 13 PIM and a minus-8 rating over 15 appearances, but his offense should improve if he can earn an uptick in ice time -- he skated 17:00 in Thursday's contest after Evans' early exit.
