Foerster scored a power-play goal on four shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.

Foerster entered Saturday mired in a seven-game slump before scoring at 13:57 of the first period. Coach John Tortorella has moved the winger all around the lineup -- Foerster started the year in a top-six role, and he's been scratched once, but he's now on the fourth line amid his recent slump. The 22-year-old is at three goals, one assist, 25 shots on net, 13 hits, 23 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 17 contests. He put up 33 points in 77 games as a rookie in 2023-24, so there's a lot of potential in his game as long as he can keep his confidence up amid the struggles.
