Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Won't play Monday
Brazeau (upper body) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Maple Leafs, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
Brazeau remains day-to-day due to his upper-body injury, and he'll be unavailable for a second consecutive matchup. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available Thursday against Washington, but Philip Tomasino will likely remain in the lineup Monday.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Unavailable Saturday
Brazeau (upper body) has been ruled out of Saturday's game in Winnipeg, Penguins play-by-play announcer Josh Getzoff reports.
Brazeau has been outstanding in a second-line role this season, collecting six goals and 12 points in 12 appearances. He is day-to-day, and it's unclear if he will be ready for Monday's game against Toronto. Philip Tomasino will draw into Saturday's lineup for Brazeau.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Hot streak continues
Brazeau scored a goal Tuesday in a 3-2 shootout loss to Philadelphia.
Brazeau skated down the left side, and his shot found space between Samuel Ersson's pad and the goal post. Brazeau's been a revelation this season. In 11 games, he has six goals, six assists and 21 shots while averaging a modest 13:26. Two of his goals have been clutch game-winners. Keep rolling him out there as long as he continues this pace. Better yet, trade Brazeau -- someone will bite, and you'll net a more consistent performer. The 27-year-old had a modest 22 points (11 goals) in 75 regular-season games between Boston and Minnesota in 2024-25.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Two helpers against St. Louis
Brazeau picked up two assists in Monday's 6-3 win over the Blues.
The 27-year-old winger remains on track for a breakout campaign while skating on the Penguins' second line alongside a rejuvenated Evgeni Malkin. Brazeau has as many multi-point performances so far in 2025-26 as he does goose eggs (three of each). Through 10 games, he's piled up five goals and 11 points -- halfway to his point total over 76 regular-season games from last year.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Stays hot with three-point effort
Brazeau scored a power-play goal and added two assists, one with the man advantage, in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.
The 27-year-old is having an incredible start to his first season with Pittsburgh after signing a modest two-year, $3 million contract with the team this offseason. Brazeau has five goals and eight points through seven games, and his efforts have been rewarded with time in the top six at even strength and now a spot on the second power-play unit -- Tuesday's PP points were his first of the campaign. Regression is inevitable considering his bloated 35.7 percent shooting, however.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Scores again Tuesday
Brazeau scored a goal on two shots and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Ducks.
Brazeau has four goals over four games to begin 2025-26. It's arguably one of the most surprising happenings in the league early in the campaign, though Brazeau's strong play has earned him a look alongside Evgeni Malkin on the second line. Brazeau has added 10 shots on net, seven hits, six blocked shots and a plus-1 rating. The 27-year-old has typically featured in a bottom-six role in his previous NHL stops in Minnesota and Boston, so he should have no trouble handling business in his own zone.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Pots winner Thursday
Brazeau scored the game-winning goal in Thursday's 4-3 victory over the Islanders.
After tickling twine twice in Tuesday's season opener, Brazeau stayed locked in Thursday, taking a cross-ice feed from Evgeni Malkin late in the third period and beating Ilya Sorokin with a slick move to his backhand to snap a 3-3 tie. Brazeau managed just 11 goals and 22 points over 76 regular-season games split between the Bruins and Wild in his first full NHL campaign in 2024-25, but he's shown a remarkable knack for clutch play already -- he had the GWG in both Penguins victories to begin the current campaign, and six of his 19 NHL goals so far have been game-winners. The 27-year-old posted big offensive numbers in the OHL and ECHL earlier in his career and produced 18 goals and 37 points in 49 games for AHL Providence in 2023-24, and Brazeau could surprise if given the opportunity in Pittsburgh.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Scores twice in season opener
Brazeau scored two goals, including an empty-netter, in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Rangers.
Brazeau broke the deadlock for the Penguins with a backhand in the final seconds of the first period to give Pittsburgh a 1-0 lead. The 27-year-old doubled the team's lead in the third period with an empty-netter at the 17:48 mark. Brazeau played in 76 regular-season games for the Bruins and Wild last season, tallying 11 goals and 11 assists. He signed a two-year deal with the Penguins in the offseason.

Penguins' Justin Brazeau: Bound for Steel City
Brazeau agreed to terms on a two-year, $3 million contract with Pittsburgh on Tuesday, Darren Dreger of TSN reports.
Brazeau played in 76 regular-season games for the Bruins and Wild last season, tallying 11 goals and 11 assists along the way. The Penguins will likely give their prospects plenty of opportunities this upcoming season, so the 27-year-old Brazeau won't be a lock to suit up on a nightly basis and could find himself serving as a healthy scratch periodically.

Wild's Justin Brazeau: Picks up helper Thursday
Brazeau notched an assist and eight hits in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.
Brazeau helped out on a Marco Rossi goal in the first period as the Wild got a rare contribution from players that aren't on the first line. The 27-year-old Brazeau has just the one assist to go with one shot on goal, 14 hits and a plus-1 rating over three playoff outings. He shouldn't have trouble staying in the lineup, but he is unlikely to generate much offense from the fourth line.

Wild's Justin Brazeau: Gets assist in return from scratch
Brazeau notched an assist and four hits in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canucks.
Brazeau's tenure with the Wild has gotten off to a poor start, as he has just two points over 18 outings since being acquired from the Bruins. The 27-year-old winger is at 22 points, 89 shots on net, 121 hits and a minus-8 rating through 75 appearances between Minnesota and Boston this season. Brazeau was scratched Friday versus the Flames, and it looks like he'll have to compete with Vinnie Hinostroza for playing time should the Wild make the postseason.

Wild's Justin Brazeau: Nabs winner over Sabres
Brazeau scored a goal in a 4-1 win over Buffalo on Saturday.
His first goal as a member of the Wild in his eighth appearance was the game-winner. Brazeau stuffed in a loose puck in front in the second period. Minnesota acquired him in a trade with the Bruins on March 6. He's averaging just 8:28 in ice time, so his fantasy value is limited.

Wild's Justin Brazeau: Depth forward heading west
Brazeau was traded to the Wild from the Bruins on Thursday in exchange for Jakub Lauko, Marat Khusnutdinov and a 2026 sixth-round draft pick.
Brazeau is a 27-year-old forward who just made his NHL debut last season. Over 76 appearances with the Bruins, he's earned 27 points and 132 hits, offering a bit of grit and a willingness to go to the tough areas of the ice to make noise. Brazeau likely figures to be a bottom-six forward for the Wild, though his scoring output and ice time are unlikely to change much from one team to another.

Bruins' Justin Brazeau: Struggling to score
Brazeau's goal drought reached 16 games in Sunday's 1-0 loss to the Wild.
Brazeau has two assists in that span while seeing bottom-six minutes -- he's averaging 10:57 of ice time during the goal drought. The 27-year-old has been scratched for three of the Bruins' last six contests, which suggests his lack of production has been noticed. Overall, the 27-year-old has 20 points, 76 shots on net, 86 hits and a minus-6 rating through 56 appearances.

Bruins' Justin Brazeau: Posts assist Saturday
Brazeau notched an assist in Saturday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Senators.
Brazeau continues to offer a bit of depth scoring in a bottom-six role. He has four goals and two assists over his last 12 appearances, adding 16 shots on net, 12 PIM and 23 hits in that span. The 26-year-old is up to 20 points, 65 shots, 73 hits and a minus-3 rating through 45 appearances. Brazeau's fantasy value is evident in deeper formats where a little physicality is rewarded.

Bruins' Justin Brazeau: Finds twine Sunday
Brazeau scored a goal in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Islanders. He also took two shots on goal and recorded three hits.
Brazeau found the back of the net midway through the second period, and the 26-year-old winger extended his solid run of play in recent weeks. He's scored four goals over his last seven outings, with one of those tallies coming on the power play. He's up to 10 goals and 18 points across 40 games so far, surpassing the numbers he posted last season by a wide margin.

Bruins' Justin Brazeau: Scores lone goal in loss
Brazeau scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Capitals.
Brazeau buried a lucky bounce, but it was the only one of the Bruins' 27 shots that got past Logan Thompson. The 26-year-old Brazeau closed out 2024 on a high note with three goals over his last four games. The 26-year-old winger has nine tallies, 17 points, 55 shots on net, 54 hits and a minus-5 rating through 37 appearances this season. Brazeau offers decent depth scoring and physicality from a third-line role.

Bruins' Justin Brazeau: Pots goal Saturday
Brazeau scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.
Brazeau set the tone early with a goal at 2:29 of the first period. He's scored in two of the last three contests, which follows a stretch in which he went six games without a point. The 26-year-old has held a steady third-line role for much of the campaign, producing eight goals, 16 points, 53 shots on net, 54 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating through 36 appearances.

Bruins' Justin Brazeau: Opens scoring Monday
Brazeau netted a power-play goal and dished out two hits during Monday's 4-1 win over the Capitals.
Brazeau cashed in on a loose puck in the final minute of the first period to set the Bruins on the path to victory. The 26-year-old continues to build on a career year with seven goals and 15 points in 34 games in his sophomore season but has yet to establish the kind of consistency that fantasy managers look for with only one point and a minus-4 rating in his last games.
