Impact Olofsson spent the first six years of his career with Buffalo but signed with the Golden Knights ahead of last season before linking up with the Avalanche on a one-year deal ahead of the 2025-26 campaign.

Puts away goal in win Olofsson scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Mammoth.

Impact Olofsson ended his six-game point drought with the tally. The Avalanche are about as healthy as they've been all season, so expect Olofsson to fill a third-line role with power-play time going forward. He has 11 goals, 25 points, 105 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over 56 appearances this season, a little behind his 29-point effort from the same number of outings with Vegas in the 2024-25 regular season.

Finds twine Friday Olofsson scored a goal and took three shots in Friday's 7-3 loss to the Flyers.

Impact Olofsson has found the back of the net in three of his last six games, a stretch in which he's racked up five points. The 30-year-old veteran often takes a backseat in the offensive scheme, as he's scored only 10 goals in 49 contests this season. However, he'll have scoring potential every time he skates alongside Nathan MacKinnon in the first line. Olofsson's stretch of five points in his last six games also snapped a slump of just three points in 18 appearances between Dec. 1 and Jan. 8.

Two points including winner Monday Olofsson scored the game-winning goal and added a power-play assist in Monday's 5-2 win over the Capitals.

Impact Both points came in the second period as the Avs took the lead for good. Olofsson has two multi-point performances in the last four games, but those are the only times he's gotten onto the scoresheet since Dec. 13, and Monday's helper was his first power-play point since Nov. 9. On the season, the veteran winger has nine goals and 23 points in 47 contests.

Two-point effort Saturday Olofsson scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact After scoring the Avs' second goal late in the first period, the veteran winger helped set up Ilya Solovyov for his first career NHL tally midway through the second. Olofsson snapped an 11-game point drought with the performance, and on the season he's managed eight goals and 21 points in 44 contests while mainly skating in a middle-six role.

Tallies game-winner Olofsson scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Predators.

Impact Olofsson ended a 12-game goal drought with his second-period tally, which was the game-winner. He had just three assists during his slump. Olofsson is seeing time on the third line and second power-play unit, and while he can succeed there, it may be in bursts rather than consistent production. He's at seven goals, 19 points, 69 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 32 appearances. Without steady offense, he offers little to help fantasy managers.

Scores go-ahead goal Olofsson scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.

Impact Olofsson ended his four-game goal drought with a tally at 5:51 of the second period. His go-ahead goal was just 1:19 after Ross Colton's tally tied the game at 1-1. The 30-year-old Olofsson is up to six goals, 15 points, 48 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 19 appearances this season. He's not known for his playmaking touch, but producing more assists in 2025-26 could help him push for a career year, which he'll achieve if he reaches the 50-point mark for the first time.

Nets pair of goals in win Olofsson scored twice and added two PIM in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Lightning.

Impact Olofsson tied the game at 1-1 with a power-play tally in the first period and added an even-strength goal early in the second to give the Avalanche their first lead of the contest. The 30-year-old winger had gone two games without a point following his five-point eruption against the Devils last Tuesday. Olofsson is at five goals, seven assists, 42 shots on net and a minus-1 rating across 14 appearances. As long as he stays on the Avalanche's top power-play unit, he represents an excellent offense-only option in fantasy, though he may not be the most consistent player available.

Erupts for five points Tuesday Olofsson had three goals, including one on the power play, and two power-play assists in Tuesday's 8-4 win over the Devils.

Impact Olofsson had one of the best performances of his career Tuesday, and he snapped a 10-game goal drought to open the campaign with the first hat trick of his career. The five-point output was also a career-high mark for the 30-year-old forward, who now has seven points in his last four games after cracking the scoresheet three times over that stretch.
