Foerster recorded an assist, two hits and a plus-1 rating in a team-high 23:25 of ice time in Sunday's 3-1 loss to New Jersey. - Foerster has seen his ice time increase in each of the last three games, and Sunday's outing was the second most he has received in 2024-25, so he appears to be earning more trust from head coach John Tortorella. Foerster could be a name worth keeping an eye on for fantasy managers if he continues to log heavy minutes on the top line, though the Flyers' struggles as a team could challenge that notion. The right-shot winger has contributed 16 goals and 14 assists over 64 appearances this season. |

Foerster had a goal and two assists in a 6-1 win over the Penguins on Tuesday. - Foerster has three goals and two assists in his last five games, and he now has 16 goals (28 points) in 58 games. He's on pace to best his 20-goal, 33-point career marks from last season, and he could deliver 40 points for the orange and black. Foerster is developing well in Philly, but his fantasy value remains restricted until he starts to add more consistency to his game. There are plenty of 40-point wingers in the NHL. |

Foerster scored a power-play goal Thursday in a 4-3 loss to Washington. - The goal snapped a Philly 0-for-10 streak with the man advantage over five games. Foerster has a goal in each of his last two games and 15 on the season. He's on pace to top his 20-goal career mark, which he set last season. But Foerster's 17.9 shooting percentage is well above his 12.0 percent from his rookie season. We don't know which rate is closer to his norm, but his current sub-40 point pace should keep him on the bench in all but the deepest of leagues. |

Foerster scored a goal on the lone shot he took in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to Utah. - Foerster lit the lamp just under five minutes into the second period off a feed from captain Sean Couturier. His goal stood as the go-ahead tally until Utah's Dylan Guenther scored two straight to steal the win from Philadelphia. The 23-year-old winger is up to 14 goals, 24 points and 82 shots on net in 54 games this season. Tuesday's goal was Foerster's first point since Jan. 24, ending a five-game drought. The winger's third year in the NHL has had many ups and downs but he remains on pace to set a new career high for points in a season. While more consistent options are likely available on the waiver wire, Foerster's upside and middle-six minutes make him a solid play in fantasy for the time being. |

The winger has found decent consistency in a middle-six role with power-play time this season. He's up to 12 goals, eight helpers, 69 shots on net, 28 hits, 35 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 43 appearances. That level of production could be helpful in deeper fantasy formats. |
