Joel Armia Pots Two Goals In Thursday's Loss
4 years agoMontreal Canadiens winger Joel Armia struck twice against the Jets in Thursday's 6-3 loss, joining Tomas Tatar on the scoreboard. Armia made it 2-0 and Tatar produced a power-play goal to put the Habs 3-1 up, but the Jets ended up ruining Dominique Ducharme's debut as Montreal head coach. Armia ended a six-game dry spell with the two-goal effort and now has four goals and 10 points for the year in 12 outings. His numbers are deceiving, though, as Armia had a four-point outing on Jan. 21. The 27-year-old winger has battled with health issues during the season and has dropped to the fourth line, so fantasy managers should ignore him for now, but Armia could have some value if he moves up the lineup.

Joel Armia Expected To Be Available For Start Of Season
1 year agoMontreal Canadiens winger Joel Armia (lower body) is expected to be in the lineup for the start of the regular season. The 30-year-old seasoned veteran is projected to be on the team's third or fourth-line in the upcoming campaign. Last season, Armia scored seven goals and added seven helpers in 43 contests. He also carried a minus-7 rating and will not play much of a role in fantasy hockey this season.

Joel Armia Hits A Hat Trick Against Washington
2 years agoMontreal Canadiens winger Joel Armia potted his second career hat trick Thursday, providing half of the goals in a 6-2 triumph over the Capitals. Armia started the three-goal effort with a short-handed tally, added one marker in an even-strength situation, and wrapped up his night with an empty-netter. The 29-year-old scored his first hat trick against the Rangers in March 2019. Armia has had all kinds of health issues this season and skated in only his 40th game Thursday. He's done very little on the offensive front, going for seven goals and seven assists.
