Top Jake Guentzel News

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Tallies on power play in loss

    Guentzel scored a power-play goal on six shots and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Panthers in Game 1.

    Guentzel has scored four times over his last four games, including two power-play goals in that span. His first year with the Lightning saw the winger tally a career-best 41 goals while reaching the 80-point mark for the second time in his career. He's locked into a top-six role and a spot on the first power-play unit, so he should be a significant factor in the Lightning's offense during the playoffs.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: New career mark for goals

    Guentzel scored a shorthanded goal in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Panthers.

    The goal set a new career mark (41). Guentzel and the Bolts have one more game Thursday before they take on the Panthers in the first round. The sniper could sit for a rest day; watch for confirmation for Thursday's match against the Rangers.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Reaches 40-goal mark

    Guentzel scored two goals, including one on the power play, on four shots in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Sabres.

    With the two-goal effort, Guentzel reached the 40-goal mark for the third time in his career. He hadn't potted a goal in his last four outings prior to Sunday. The 30-year-old winger is at 79 points, including 28 on the power play, while adding 214 shots on net, 52 blocked shots and a plus-19 rating over 78 appearances. He'll have up to two more chances to secure the second 80-point campaign of his career.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Returns to practice Friday

    Guentzel (personal) was back at practice Friday, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Guentzel did not play Tuesday versus Toronto, awaiting the birth of his child. The 30-year-old has 38 goals and 39 assists across 76 games with the Lightning this season. He has been a stud on the power play with 16 goals and 11 helpers on the Lightning's top unit. He should be back in his regular role on the top line, alongside Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point on Friday versus Detroit.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Awaiting birth of child

    Guentzel is away from the Lightning while awaiting the birth of his child, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports.

    No reason was initially provided for Guentzel's absence, but this is an encouraging update rather than a concerning one. Mitchell Chaffee will cover for Guentzel in this contest, while Guentzel will attempt to be ready to return to the lineup Friday versus the Red Wings.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Unavailable Wednesday

    Guentzel (undisclosed) won't play Wednesday versus the Maple Leafs, Gabby Shirley of FanDuel Sports Network Florida & Sun reports.

    Guentzel had three power-play assists in 19:24 of ice time versus the Rangers on Monday. However, it looks like he's dealing with an injury -- it's unlikely the Lightning would be resting a player in a matchup that will have an impact on who wins the Atlantic Division this season. Mitchell Chaffee is expected to be in the lineup Wednesday, but Nick Paul stands to pick up the most extra ice time in Guentzel's absence.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Three PP helpers in win

    Guentzel notched three power-play assists in Monday's 5-1 win over the Rangers.

    The Lightning's top power-play unit dominated the game, as Brayden Point and Nikita Kucherov also had three-point performances with the man advantage. Guentzel has delivered five multi-point efforts in the last nine games as he closes in on a couple of personal milestones -- the 30-year-old winger needs two more tallies for his third career 40-goal campaign and three more points to reach 80 for the second time.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Three-game, six-point streak

    Guentzel had a goal and an assist in a 4-1 win over the Islanders on Tuesday.

    His second-period goal stood as the winner. Nikita Kucherov found Guentzel wide open at the right post for an easy tap-in. He's on a three-game, six-point streak that includes four goals. The marker was Guentzel's 38th, and he's cruising on a point-per-game pace (73 in 73).

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Eight points in last five games

    Guentzel had a goal and an assist in a 5-3 victory over the Islanders on Saturday.

    Guentzel has eight points (four goals, four assists) over his past five games. It was his 37th goal of the season, putting him within three of equaling his career mark of 40. Guentzel achieved that plateau in 2021-22 and 2018-19. He sits second on the Lightning with 37 goals this season, one behind Brayden Point (38), and he's tied with Kyle Connor for fourth overall in the league.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Fourth straight 70-point season

    Guentzel scored twice in an 8-0 win over Utah on Thursday.

    Guentzel got the Bolts on the board just 1:30 into the game when he chipped the puck past Karel Vejmelka from the low slot. Guentzel's second tally came on the power play late in the second frame. He has six points, including three goals, and 11 shots across his last four games and 36 goals overall this year. He has put up four straight 70-point seasons (84, 73, 77 and 70).

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Big three-point effort in loss

    Guentzel had a goal and two assists in a 6-4 loss to Utah on Saturday.

    Guentzel has 34 goals and 33 assists (187 shots) in 68 games in his first year with the Bolts. He's now within one goal of tying Dino Ciccarelli (35; 1996-97) for the second-most goals by a player in his first season with Tampa Bay. It would take a real push for him to best Brian Bradley, who tops the list with 42 (1992-93), but never say never.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Cashes in on power play

    Guentzel scored a power-play goal into an empty net, took five shots on goal, blocked four shots, logged two hits and added two PIM in Monday's 2-0 win over the Flyers.

    Guentzel had gone four games without a point since his March 6 hat trick versus the Sabres. The 30-year-old winger had not gone more than two contests without a point prior to that stretch, as he's been consistent and effective in a top-six role throughout the season. He's up to 33 goals, 31 helpers, 177 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating through 66 appearances.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Hat trick in win

    Guentzel scored a hat trick in the second period of a 6-5 win over the Sabres on Thursday.

    Guentzel has put up points in three straight games (five goals, two assists; 12 shots). He's played well this season, and he has 32 goals and 31 assists in 61 games. However, prior to this recent run, Guentzel had gone 32 games without a multi-goal game. He still produced points -- he had 28 in that span. But snipers often snipe in bunches, and he hasn't. However, that's perfectly fine with Guentzel's consistent production.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: First goals in eight games

    Guentzel scored two goals and added an assist in a 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets on Tuesday.

    Guentzel pushed the Bolts up 3-1 early in the second period with an easy, backdoor tap-in; the goal stood as the winner. His second went into an empty net. The goals were Guentzel's first in eight games. The sniper is now one goal from recording his fourth-straight 30-goal season and fifth of this career.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Registers assist Monday

    Guentzel tallied an assist and took two shots on target in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Panthers.

    Guentzel cashed in a secondary helper on Brayden Point's goal in the third period. The 30-year-old Guentzel has 30 assists, 57 points and 153 shots on net in 59 appearances this season. His point total is tied for 33rd in the league and is fourth on the Lightning. With five points in his last six contests, he'll likely be a steady contributor offensively for the rest of the season while skating on Tampa Bay's top line and power-play unit. He is near the pace needed to reach his point total of 77 from a season ago, which was the second-highest mark of his career. He is a must start in all fantasy formats for the foreseeable future.

  • Lightning's Jake Guentzel: Just two goals in last 12 games

    Guentzel has two assists in four games since the 4 Nations Face-Off.

    The sniper has been stuck at 27 goals since Feb. 6, and he has just two goals in his last 12 games. Guentzel will get his goals -- he's a prolific finisher. Snipers put goals up in bunches, so expect an outburst soon enough.
