Rangers' Tye Kartye: Extends point streak to three
Rotowire
Kartye recorded a power-play goal, placed two shots on net and dished out two hits in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Kraken.
Kartye extended his point streak to three games Saturday, as he recorded his first power-play goal of the season early in the first period to give the Rangers a 2-0 lead. With Saturday's twine finder, the 25-year-old forward is up to six goals, 13 points, a plus-3 rating, 28 shots on net and 48 hits over 18 games this season. Kartye has been one of the better waivers claims in recent memory, as he's provided the Rangers with much needed two-way play from the wing. He's a solid streaming option in deep fantasy leagues and could become a mainstay in most banger formats.

Rotowire
Kartye scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Flyers.

Rangers' Tye Kartye: Contributes two points in loss
Rotowire
Kartye deposited a goal, dished out an assist, placed two shots on net and put out five hits in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Kings.
Kartye has been a pleasant surprise for the Rangers in the early stages of the new season. Monday's outing was his third multi-point performance of the 2026-27 season, where he's up to four goals, 10 points, 21 shots on net, a plus-1 rating and 38 hits across 14 appearances. He's looked like a whole new player since he was claimed off waivers by the Rangers late in the 2025-26 campaign, and he should continue to post strong category-coverage numbers from a top-six role for his new squad. Kartye is an excellent waiver-wire pickup in deep leagues, especially those that value banger stats.

Kraken's Tye Kartye: Back in action
Rotowire
Kartye (illness) will play Friday versus the Mammoth, per the NHL media site.
Kartye missed Wednesday's contest against the Kings, but he looks to be healthy enough to return to action. He'll slot in on the fourth line, while Jared McCann (lower body) comes out of the lineup. Kartye has just one assist and five shots on net over his last seven contests.

Rotowire
Kartye is out of Wednesday's lineup versus the Kings due to an illness.
Kartye's absence was initially unclear as to whether he was a scratch or dealing with an issue. The 24-year-old will miss at least one game while under the weather, and it's uncertain if he'll be back for Friday's game versus the Mammoth. Ben Meyers will play Wednesday in Kartye's usual fourth-line spot.

Kraken's Tye Kartye: Tickles twine in win
Rotowire
Kartye scored a goal on two shots and blocked three shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Oilers.
Kartye put the Kraken ahead 2-0 with a second-period tally. The 24-year-old has two points through nine outings this season, but the team has had just enough injuries for him to remain in the lineup as a fourth-line regular. The physical forward has added 27 hits, six shots on net and a minus-1 rating. Until Kartye shows more consistency on offense, he can stay on the waiver wire in fantasy.

Kraken's Tye Kartye: Gathers assist Tuesday
Rotowire
Kartye posted an assist and six hits in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Canadiens.
Kartye has started 2025-26 in a fourth-line role with an average of 12:56 of ice time per game. His helper Tuesday was his first point in three outings, but he's also racked up 15 hits to provide a heavy physical presence. He may not be in the lineup all the time, especially if the Kraken choose to give Berkly Catton his NHL debut soon, though Jani Nyman could also be at risk of a healthy scratch.

Kraken's Tye Kartye: Pots shorthanded goal
Rotowire
Kartye scored a shorthanded goal and added four hits in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to the Kings.
Kartye made the most of his chances in April, earning four points over five games this month. The 23-year-old forward was largely limited to fourth-line minutes when he was in the lineup, which wasn't a given for much of the campaign. Kartye had six goals, 56 shots on net, 175 hits, 43 PIM and a minus-14 rating over 63 appearances. He is a pending restricted free agent, and it's unclear if the Kraken are interesting in extending him a qualifying offer.

Rotowire
Kartye was assigned to AHL Coachella Valley on a conditioning loan Thursday.
Kartye has been scratched for the Kraken's first three games following the 4 Nations Face-Off break. The 23-year-old forward has slipped into a part-time role lately, so this conditioning loan will give him a chance to get back up to game speed.

Kartye snapped a 12-game point drought with the helper on Andre Burakovsky's second-period marker.

Kraken's Tye Kartye: Playing time slips
Rotowire
Kartye played in just five of the Kraken's nine games in February.
Kartye is on an eight-game point drought after being held scoreless versus the Penguins in a 2-0 win Thursday. He's a solid bottom-six forward, but scoring problems have led to Kartye or Kailer Yamamoto slipping out of the lineup when the team is fully healthy. With Andre Burakovsky (undisclosed) day-to-day, there may be more consistent time for Kartye going forward, but he's not a fantasy option if he can't get on the scoresheet. The 22-year-old has 15 points, 82 shots on net, 137 hits and a minus-3 rating through 54 appearances.

Kraken's Tye Kartye: Scores again Saturday
Rotowire
Kartye scored a goal, logged three hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Blue Jackets.
Kartye has goals in consecutive games, which has helped him stay in the lineup. With Andre Burakovsky (lower body) and Matty Beniers (upper body) both exiting this game early, Kartye's spot on the fourth line is likely safe in the short term. The 22-year-old is up to eight goals, 14 points, 71 shots on net, 71 hits, 27 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 41 appearances in his rookie season.
