Posts helper Gatcomb logged an assist and three hits in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers.

Impact Gatcomb looked to be slipping into a part-time role last week, but he's retaken a fourth-line spot over Calum Ritchie in the last two games. The 26-year-old Gatcomb ended an 18-game point drought with his helper Wednesday. He's produced just three points with 30 shots on net, 108 hits and a plus-1 rating over 24 outings, so he doesn't need to be rostered in most fantasy formats.

JANUARY 26 • NHL.COM

Slipping out of lineup Gatcomb was scratched for the second straight game in Saturday's 5-0 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Gatcomb's role is shrinking with the return of Bo Horvat (lower body), who played Saturday. The Islanders have plenty of depth forwards, and Gatcomb hasn't stood out -- he's stuck in a 17-game point drought currently. The 26-year-old has put up just two points in 22 outings this season, adding 28 shots on net and 102 hits, but the Islanders may be reluctant to expose him to waivers.

Finds twine in win Gatcomb netted a goal and dished out nine hits in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Gatcomb made his presence felt both on the scoresheet and on the ice, as in addition to his second-period goal, he recorded a season-high nine hits. With his effort Tuesday, the 26-year-old forward is up to two points, six shots on net and 29 hits through five games this season. He's making the most of his stint in the NHL in the absence of Jonathan Drouin (back). Once Drouin returns, Gatcomb has a chance to remain with the Islanders instead of returning to AHL Bridgeport, but he'd likely rotate in and out of the lineup. When he does play, Gatcomb offers a premium value in hits per game, but has limited offensive upside.

Impact Gatcomb was on the NHL roster to start the season, but he was placed on waivers in late October and has been in the AHL with Bridgeport since. An injury to Kyle Palmieri (knee) has created an opening at the NHL level, and Gatcomb will fill that roster spot. The 26-year-old Gatcomb has eight points (four goals, four assists) in 15 AHL games. It remains to be seen whether he will draw into the lineup right away or serve as the 13th forward for now.
