Impact The Isles lost, but Barzal extended his scoring streak to five games and seven points (three goals, four assists). And he continues to lead the Isles with 55 points, including 40 assists. Barzal seems to be thriving in new coach Patrick Roy's aggressive defensive system, and he seems still buoyed by an impressive skills performance against his peers at the All-Star Game.

Two PP points in Montreal Barzal scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.

Impact The Isles fell behind 3-0 in the first period but rallied with three straight power-play goals, only for the comeback to fall short in the end. It's Barzal's fourth multi-point performance in January, and the 26-year-old has delivered three goals and 14 points through 12 games on the month.

Snags two helpers Barzal registered a pair of assists in Sunday's 3-2 win over Dallas.

Impact Barzal remains stuck in a five-game goal drought during which he recorded 13 shots and three helpers. Despite the slump, the 26-year-old center continues to see plenty of opportunities with the No. 1 power-play unit. The British Columbia native is well on pace to get back over the 60-point threshold for the first time since 2019-20 and could even challenge for his career-high 85 points set during his rookie campaign.

Massive four-point game Barzal scored a goal and added three assists in a 4-3 OT win over the Maple Leafs on Thursday. Two of the helpers came on the power play.

Impact Barzal scored the game-winning goal 21 seconds into overtime when he tapped in a pass from Noah Dobson after Bo Horvat won an offensive zone face-off. The 26-year-old extended his point streak to five games and nine points, including seven assists. Barzal has been firing pucks-a-plenty this season, so not only is he on pace for his first 90-plus point campaign, he's also tracking toward a possible 250 shots. His shooting percentage hasn't gone up, so the playmaker isn't going to hit 30 goals or anything like that. But Barzal could easily end up in the NHL's top-20 scorers if he keeps this up.

Impact The 26-year-old helped set up tallies by Alexander Romanov in the second period and Brock Nelson in the third, but it was Barzal's somewhat embarrassing fail on a shootout attempt that might have had the biggest impact on the final result.

It's taken a while, but Barzal appears to be regaining the point-a-game form he hasn't flashed since his rookie season back in 2017-18.

Four-game, six-point streak Barzal scored a goal in a 5-4 shootout win over the Flames on Saturday. It was his fourth goal of the season.

Impact Barzal has six points (two goals, four assists) on a four-game point streak, and seven points (two goals, five assists) in his past six games. His 6.8 shooting percentage is well below his career mark of 10.8, so watch for the playmaker's goal total to start to climb as those numbers stabilize. Despite the Isles' recent seven-game losing streak, Barzal appears to have taken an offensive step forward. Or maybe we should say, an offensive step toward his rookie season, an 85-point outburst he's never replicated. Barzal has four goals and 11 assists in 17 games this season.

He's at 12 points (five on the power play), 56 shots and a minus-2 rating through 15 appearances this season.
