Devils' Dawson Mercer: Another two-goal effort Saturday
Mercer scored a pair of shorthanded goals, including one into an empty-net, in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
Mercer has five goals over the last three games, including consecutive two-goal outings. He had both of the Devils' insurance tallies in the third period. Mercer is off to a fantastic start in 2025-26 with eight goals, five helpers, 23 shots on net, 15 blocked shots, 10 hits and a plus-8 rating over 12 contests. While his pace will cool off eventually, he may not be kept under the 40-point mark this year as he has been the last two regular seasons, making him a worthy addition to fantasy rosters in many formats.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Scores both goals in loss
Mercer scored two power-play goals on four shots and went minus-2 in Thursday's 5-2 loss to the Sharks.
Mercer has been back on the second line for a couple of games since Juho Lammikko entered the lineup. The 24-year-old Mercer has been productive from every spot he's played in so far, and he's potted three goals over his last two games. For the season, he has six goals, 11 points (four on the power play), 20 shots on net, 14 blocked shots, 10 hits and a plus-6 rating through 11 appearances. If Mercer's hot start is here to stay, he'll provide excellent fantasy value for the rest of the campaign.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Pots goal against Colorado
Mercer scored a goal in Tuesday's 8-4 loss to the Avalanche.
Mercer scored during a barrage of four straight goals by the Devils in the second. He didn't light the lamp in his previous four outings, but he's up to nine points (four goals, five assists) through 10 games this season. He should continue to find opportunities to produce as a middle-six forward in a productive offense.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Two helpers in win
Mercer logged two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Wild.
Mercer shuffled down to the third line to center Connor Brown and Paul Cotter in the absence of Cody Glass (upper body). This was Mercer's second multi-point effort of the season, and he's off to a strong start with three goals and four helpers over seven contests. The 23-year-old has added 13 shots on net, 10 blocks, four hits, four PIM and a plus-7 rating. Consistency will be key for him to challenge his career-high mark of 56 points from 2022-23.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Pots empty-netter
Mercer scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Oilers.
Mercer is starting to roll on offense. He was held off the scoresheet in the season opener but has racked up three goals and two assists over four games since. The 23-year-old also has eight shots on net, eight blocked shots, four hits and a plus-5 rating through five appearances. He's played in a top-six role in recent years, but he has failed to hit the 40-point mark in each of the last two seasons. If this hot start continues, he could challenge his career year of 56 points in 82 games in 2022-23.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Strikes twice including GWG
Mercer scored two goals, one on the power play and the other the game-winner, in Monday's 3-2 victory over the Blue Jackets.
The 23-year-old banged home a one-timer on an odd-man rush midway through the second period to give the Devils a 2-1 lead, then his empty-netter late in the third wound up being the GWG when Dmitri Voronkov found the back of the net with 21 seconds left in regulation. The goals were Mercer's first of the season, and he's produced three points in three games. With a top-six role at even strength and a spot on the second power-play unit, Mercer may be able to regain the form that saw him deliver a career-high 27 goals and 56 points over 82 regular-season games in 2022-23.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Costly penalty in Game 5 loss
Mercer scored a goal, added six PIM and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 5-4 double-overtime loss to the Hurricanes in Game 5.
Mercer opened the scoring 3:46 into the game. However, the Hurricanes proved resilient and the contest went into double overtime, where the 23-year-old's double-minor for high-sticking Jesperi Kotkaniemi led to the end of the Devils' season. Mercer was relatively quiet in the postseason with two goals, a minus-6 rating, eight PIM, eight shots on net and 15 hits over five contests. The 23-year-old was limited to 36 points in 82 regular-season appearances, and while he's yet to miss a game in his career, his offense has trended in the wrong direction over the last few years.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Scores in season-ending loss
Mercer scored a goal in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Mercer finished the season having found the back of the net in this last two games.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Two-point effort in Boston
Mercer scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Bruins.
After potting his 18th goal of the season midway through the second period, Mercer fed Brian Dumoulin for the game-winner 90 seconds into OT. Mercer is having a productive finish to the regular season, collecting three goals and seven points over the last 10 games with all three tallies coming on the man advantage.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Manages assist
Mercer notched an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Penguins.
Mercer has two helpers over his last three games. The 23-year-old continues to see time as the Devils' second-line center, a role he's filled since Jack Hughes' season ended due to a shoulder injury. Mercer is up to 33 points over 79 appearances, matching his output from 2023-24. He's added 136 shots on net, 58 blocked shots, 40 hits and a plus-3 rating. It's not growth for Mercer, but at least he didn't take another step back in 2024-25.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Lights lamp twice in win
Mercer scored two power-play goals, one the game-winner, in Wednesday's 5-3 victory over Chicago.
The 23-year-old ended a seven-game goal drought when he slipped a puck past Spencer Knight early in the first period, and Mercer then gave the Devils a 4-2 lead with a quick shot through a screen in the second. Mercer's up to 17 goals on the season, giving him nine more games to reach 20 for the third straight campaign.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Helps out on power play
Mercer logged a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Monday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Canucks.
Even with Jack Hughes (shoulder) out for the season, Mercer has struggled to make a larger impact on offense. Mercer has just four points to go with 19 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 12 games in March. Overall, the 23-year-old forward has 29 points, 118 shots on net, 54 blocks, 35 hits and a plus-4 rating through 72 contests. Mercer may struggle to match his promising 56-point 2022-23 campaign again, but he's evolved into a strong two-way forward.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Scores again Sunday
Mercer deposited an empty-net goal on the power play Sunday in a 3-1 win over Philadelphia.
Mercer has tallies in back-to-back games for the first time since late December. The right-shot forward sealed the win for the Devils with his third power-play marker of the campaign at 19:42 of the final frame. After a strong first half of the season, Mercer has struggled to consistently contribute on offense since the calendar flipped to 2025 -- he has nine points (six goals) over 25 outings in the new year. Despite the extended slump, he's on track to surpass the 33 points he produced over 82 regular-season games in 2023-24.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Tallies goal Friday
Mercer scored a goal on his lone shot on net in Friday's 6-1 loss to the Jets.
Mercer found the back of the net less than a minute into the third period. Overall, the 23-year-old center has 14 goals, 27 points or 106 shots on net in 64 games this season. With Jack Hughes (shoulder) out for the rest of the season, Mercer is one of the top names to watch for New Jersey in fantasy. Mercer moved up to the second line and should maintain that role for the rest of the way. However, his offensive production has been sparse since the 4 Nations Face-Off break. Mercer is known for his durability and hasn't missed a game in his four-year career, which should lead to more opportunities. Mercer is a strong waiver-wire option in all formats if he can find offensive consistency.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Provides assist in win
Mercer notched an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-1 win over Utah.
Mercer's offense hasn't been good lately. He's gotten on the scoresheet in just four of his last 12 games, earning three goals and two assists in that span, which follows a six-game slump that covered most of his outings in January. The 23-year-old forward is up to 13 goals, 13 helpers, 101 shots on net and a plus-10 rating through 61 appearances this season. While he remains a middle-six fixture in the lineup, Mercer is on pace for production similar to his 33-point effort in 2023-24, which is only really useful in deeper fantasy formats.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Records helper Saturday
Mercer notched an assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Canadiens.
Mercer has three goals and a helper over his last eight games. The 23-year-old continues to see middle-six minutes and offers a bit of depth scoring with little else in other categories. For the season, Mercer has 25 points, 97 shots on net, 36 blocked shots, 29 hits and a plus-8 rating over 57 appearances.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Pots goal in Wednesday's win
Mercer scored a goal in Wednesday's 5-0 win over the Flyers.
Mercer has three goals over his last four games, but he's earned a modest five points through 13 outings in January. The 23-year-old is still set for a larger role while Nico Hischier (upper body) is out -- Mercer led all Devils forwards with 19:12 of ice time Wednesday. Availability has often been Mercer's best ability in 2024-25, as he's added 13 goals, 11 assists, 92 shots on net and a plus-9 rating through 53 appearances in a middle-six role.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Ends drought with two goals
Mercer recorded two goals on three shots in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Bruins.
Mercer endured a six-game pointless streak but snapped the drought in this huge win Wednesday after finding the back of the net twice in the second period. The 23-year-old is up to 12 goals and 23 total points across 50 games this season.

Devils' Dawson Mercer: Records two points Monday
Mercer scored a goal and an assist in Monday's 3-2 win over the Kraken. He also recorded three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating.
Mercer cracked the scoresheet for the first time since finding the back of the net in a 4-2 win over the Hurricanes on Dec. 27. He has five points (three goals, two helpers) across his last seven appearances. He seems on pace to reach the career-high 43 points he notched as a rookie in 2021-22, when he posted 42 points across 82 games.
