Lawson Crouse News: Logs helper Friday

Crouse recorded an assist, four shots on goal and four hits in Friday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

Crouse set up a Michael Carcone tally in the third period. The assist was Crouse's first point in five games this year, and he's added eight shots, 18 hits and an even plus-minus rating while playing on the third line. The winger was limited to 18 points in 81 appearances in 2024-25, and he's not looking like much of a bounce-back candidate early in 2025-26, though he had a pair of 40-point campaigns prior to last year's drop in production. Crouse will remain a steady source of hits, shots and PIM even if his offense doesn't come around.
