First goal in 12 games Bjorkstrand scored a goal Saturday in a 6-2 win over the Sabres.

Impact It was his first goal in 12 games (four assists). Bjorkstrand is prone to offensive spurts and slumps, and right now, he's certainly in a slump. Overall, the winger has 27 points, including 12 goals, in 42 games. Bjorkstrand's fantasy value is tough to time. Wait for a few scoring games in a row before you pluck him off the wire.

Snags helper in loss Bjorkstrand provided an assist, three shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Blackhawks.

Impact Bjorkstrand has cooled off a bit -- this was his first point in three contests. The 29-year-old is up to 11 goals, 12 helpers, 73 shots on net, 36 hits and a plus-4 rating through 33 appearances. While in a third-line role, the balance of the Kraken's roster puts most of their forwards on fairly level production. Bjorkstrand has among the highest upside of any Seattle forward, as he should push for the 20-goal and 50-point marks.

Four-point outburst in victory Bjorkstrand scored two goals on three shots and added two helpers Sunday in a 7-5 win over the Rangers.
