Rotowire
Fantilli scored a goal, put two shots on net and recorded four hits in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders.

Blue Jackets' Adam Fantilli: Snaps 17-game goal drought
Rotowire
Fantilli scored a goal and added two assists in an 8-5 win over Tampa Bay on Saturday.
The goal snapped a 17-game goal drought; Fantilli's last snipe came against the Ducks on Dec. 16. It was also his first multi-point game since Dec. 4.

Fantilli is an aggressive, talented top-line pivot who is a gifted playmaker, and he's showing more of that gift this season. He has 13 goals, 20 assists, 140 shots and 71 hits in 51 games in 2025-26.

Rotowire
