Mercer scored twice on four shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.

This was Mercer's third multi-point effort over his last four games. The 25-year-old forward has clicked well on a line with Cole Perfetti and Brayden Yager in recent contests, giving the Jets a second quality scoring line. Mercer has five goals, seven assists, 41 shots on net, 14 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 20 outings between the Jets and Devils this season.
