Zach Hyman's scoring touch has gone noticeably quiet over his last five contests, with no points despite a similar shot percentage and ice time to his early-season averages. While his lone goal came last week, the subsequent four games without a point, including a few where he was held off the scoresheet entirely, suggest a cold spell is in effect. This dip is significant for Hyman, whose value hinges on his consistent offensive production, and fans should monitor if he can reignite his scoring while his energy levels remain solid.
