Carrier logged an assist, five blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

Carrier ended a three-game dry spell with the helper, matching his longest slump as a Canadien. The 28-year-old blueliner has 11 points over 22 contests since he was traded from the Predators. Overall, he's produced two goals, 16 assists, 52 shots on net, 50 hits, 92 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating over 50 appearances this season.

Hutson notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

Hutson ended a five-game slump when he helped out on a Cole Caufield tally in the second period. Prior to the skid, Hutson had earned at least one point in nine straight contests. The 20-year-old defenseman had largely avoided running streaky in the first half of the campaign. The rookie has three goals, 37 helpers (17 on the power play), 62 shots on net, 74 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-15 rating over 53 appearances.

Zellweger logged an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Stars.

Zellweger ended a nine-game point drought, dating back to Dec. 23, when he assisted on Trevor Zegras' tally in the third period. In that span, Zellweger was scratched 11 times as he continues to compete with Drew Helleson and Pavel Mintyukov for the last two spots on the Ducks' blue line. Zellweger has 13 points, 82 shots on net, 44 blocked shots, 28 hits and a plus-2 rating over 40 appearances. He sees power-play time when he's in the lineup, but the inconsistent playing time will make it tough to roster the 21-year-old defenseman in fantasy.

Fleury notched an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Red Wings.

Fleury helped out on a Shane Wright tally in the second period. The helper was Fleury's first at the NHL level since the 2022-23 campaign, when he had one assist. He's added four shots on net, eight hits, 10 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over five outings with the Kraken this season. He'll likely stay in the lineup until Ryker Evans (upper body) is ready to return.

Dunn notched an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Red Wings.

Dunn has two goals and three assists over his last eight outings. The 28-year-old defenseman helped out on a Shane Wright tally in the third period of this contest. Dunn continues to offer a decent share of offense as well as a bit of sandpaper on the Kraken's top pairing. For the season, he has 10 goals, 24 points, 82 shots on net, 41 blocked shots, 22 hits, 23 PIM and a minus-7 rating through 35 appearances.

Lagesson has been scratched for 17 straight games since his Jan. 2 call-up.

Lagesson sat out again for Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Kraken. The 28-year-old is serving as the Red Wings' extra defensemen in the absence of Jeff Petry (undisclosed), who is not expected to be back until April at the earliest. Unless the Red Wings are buyers at the trade deadline, Lagesson can be expected to be a regular in the press box until an injury situation necessitates his presence in the lineup.

Edvinsson notched an assist in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Kraken.

Edvinsson helped out on Elmer Soderblom's third-period tally. The 22-year-old Edvinsson has been moderately productive with seven points and a plus-10 rating over his last 15 outings. The defenseman is up to 21 points, 50 shots on net, 91 blocked shots, 49 hits and a plus-13 rating across 50 appearances in his first full NHL campaign.

Seider scored a power-play goal on four shots and went minus-2 in Tuesday's 5-4 shootout win over the Kraken.

Seider scored with 30 seconds left in the first period to restore a one-goal lead for the Red Wings. The 23-year-old defenseman hadn't scored in the last 23 games, but he had 16 assists, including 10 on the power play, in that span. Seider is up to five goals, 33 points (16 on the power play), 107 shots on net, 143 hits, 121 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 54 appearances as one of the best all-around blueliners in fantasy.

Myers logged an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Avalanche.

Myers has earned four points over five contests since he returned from a three-game suspension. The 35-year-old has also picked up extra minutes during the absence of Quinn Hughes (undisclosed), who has sat out the last two games. Myers is up to 17 points, 52 shots on net, 57 hits, 90 blocked shots, 60 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 50 outings in 2024-25. He could challenge the 29-point campaign he put up in 2023-24, and he adds decent all-around coverage outside of power-play points.

Hronek notched two assists, three shots on goal and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Avalanche.

Hronek has five helpers over his last six contests. He's played a slightly larger role in the last two games due to the absence of Quinn Hughes (undisclosed). That has included a promotion to the top power-play unit. Hronek has 16 points (three on the power play), 41 shots on net, 50 hits, 36 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 32 appearances this season. He's worth a look in standard fantasy formats as long as Hughes is on the shelf.
