Colton scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Canucks. - Colton's goal at 5:06 of the first period held up as the game-winner, his second such tally this season. The 25-year-old is up to 11 goals, 25 points, 106 shots on net and 107 hits through 56 appearances.

Colton provided an assist, five shots on goal and four hits in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Flames. - Colton extended his point streak to four games (one goal, three assists), which is the longest run of his career. The 25-year-old was cold prior to this surge -- he went eight games without a point, including all of February. The winger has 24 points, 104 shots on net, 103 hits and a plus-1 rating through 54 contests. Colton has seen bottom-six minutes lately, but he can be effective in deeper fantasy formats when he's scoring. |

Colton recorded an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Blackhawks. - Colton set up Mikhail Sergachev's insurance tally in the third period.

Colton scored a goal on four shots in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Ducks. - Colton spoiled John Gibson's shutout bid with a tally at 5:25 of the third period. The 25-year-old Colton has collected two goals and an assist in five games since returning from the COVID-19 protocols, though he's often played in a bottom-six role in that stretch. He's become a versatile part of the Lightning's roster this season while collecting 17 points, 77 shots on net, 79 hits and 16 PIM in 39 contests. |

Colton (not injury related) cleared COVID-19 protocols Tuesday, per Bryan Burns of the Lightning's official site. - Colton missed three games in protocols, whether he misses a fourth contest will be dependant on Coach Jon Cooper's decision.

The Lightning expect Colton (COVID-19) to return for Monday's game in New Jersey, Joe Smith of The Athletic reports. - Saturday will mark the third game Colton misses while in COVID-19 protocols. The winger, with 14 points in 34 games this season, should return to his usual role once healthy. |

Colton scored a goal on four shots and added three hits in Friday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Rangers. - Colton tied the game at 2-2 with his goal at 17:31 of the second period. The 25-year-old winger has two tallies and three helpers in his last six games, as he's adjusted well to playing in the Lightning's top six. His time in that role could be limited with Nikita Kucherov (lower body) and Anthony Cirelli (COVID-19 protocols) aren't expected to be out much longer. Colton has 14 points, 64 shots on net, 72 hits and a minus-1 rating in 33 contests overall. |

Colton notched three assists, one on the power play, in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Flyers. - The second-year forward put together the first multi-point performance of his NHL career, dishing two helpers at even strength in the second period before helping set up Corey Perry on the power play in the third for the final tally of the night. Colton is carving out some semi-consistent production for himself, scoring a goal and seven points in the last nine games, but his bottom-six role at even strength limits his fantasy utility to deeper formats. |
None |

Colton scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Friday's 3-0 win over the Kraken. - Colton tallied just 31 seconds into the second period for just his second goal of the season. The 25-year-old has four points, 40 shots on goal, 33 hits and a minus-1 rating through 19 contests. He put up 12 points in 30 games last year, so it's clear that his production has dipped even though he's seen a bit more opportunity to contribute. The American forward is probably best left off fantasy rosters until he can be more consistently productive. |

Colton has one goal in 12 games this season and is mired in a 10-game point slump. - His ice time is slowly dropping -- it's been under 10 minutes in each of his last three games. But Colton, Pat Maroon and Corey Perry have played solid hockey together on the Bolts' third line and they simply haven't caught many breaks with the puck. Colton could find himself in the press box shortly to see the game from another angle. He was a bit of revelation last year, so expectations were perhaps a bit too high coming into the season. Colton may rebound, but there are better options off the wire. |
