  • McDonagh logged an assist in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Wild. McDonagh has a helper in consecutive contests, the first time in 2024-25 he's found the scoresheet in back-to-back games. The 35-year-old defenseman is up to four assists through 11 outings this season. He's also recorded 25 blocked shots, nine shots on net and a plus-9 rating as a shutdown blueliner on the second pairing.

  • McDonagh notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche. McDonagh snapped a five-game point drought with the secondary helper on the first of Jake Guentzel's two goals in the game. As usual, McDonagh is filling a shutdown role on the second pairing. He has three helpers, nine shots on net, a plus-10 rating and 24 blocked shots through 10 outings this season. He can help fantasy managers in formats that prioritize defense, but he's a fringe option in most other leagues.

  • McDonagh registered an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Canucks. McDonagh has taken on a second-pairing role in his second stint with the Lightning, but the power-play time he saw last year with Nashville has disappeared. The 35-year-old defenseman's 32 points in 74 regular-season outings in 2023-24 represented his best production in five years. For 2024-25, he may be an option in formats that count blocked shots, but he's unlikely to move the needle much in other categories.

  • McDonagh was traded to the Lightning from the Predators along with a 2024 fourth-round pick in exchange for a 2025 second-round selection and 2024 seventh-round pick Tuesday. McDonagh spent five seasons with the Lightning during his previous stint, logging 267 regular-season games for the club while lifting Lord Stanley's Cup twice during his stay. McDonagh figures to slot into a third pairing for the Lightning. With the acquisition of McDonagh, Tampa Bay is unlikely to re-sign Matt Dumba or Calvin de Haan.

  • McDonagh produced an assist in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks in Game 4. The helper was McDonagh's first point in four playoff contests. The 34-year-old has added eight hits, 10 blocked shots, four shots on net and an even plus-minus rating while playing primarily in a top-four role. McDonagh had 32 points over 74 regular-season outings, his best production since 2018-19, but it hasn't carried over to the postseason, and time may be running out for him to find it again with the Predators down 3-1 in their first-round series.
