• Flames' MacKenzie Weegar: Supplies helper in loss

  5D ago • By RotoWire

  Weegar notched an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to Utah. Weegar had been held off the scoresheet in each of the last three games before helping out on Anthony Mantha's second-period tally. The 30-year-old Weegar plays a well-rounded game, so he doesn't necessarily have to score to be useful in fantasy. He's at five points, 23 shots on net, 29 hits, 21 blocked shots, six PIM and a plus-1 rating through 10 contests.

• Flames' MacKenzie Weegar: Finds twine Tuesday

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Weegar scored a goal on two shots, logged three hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over the Penguins. Weegar snapped a three-game point drought with his third-period tally. The defenseman has scoring upside, but his stability in fantasy comes from his all-around numbers. He has multiple hits in each game and multiple blocks in five of six outings. The 30-year-old is at four points, 14 shots on net, 17 hits, 15 blocks and a plus-4 rating while seeing top-four minutes.

• Flames' MacKenzie Weegar: One of each Saturday

  23D ago • By RotoWire

  Weegar scored a power-play goal, dished an assist, logged four hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Flyers. Weegar's first-period tally gave the Flames a 2-0 lead, and he also assisted on Nazem Kadri's empty-netter in the third. Through two games, Weegar is once again doing it all with three points (two on the power play), six shots on net, six hits, six blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. He can't sustain the goal-scoring pace, but his non-scoring production should be steady even when his offense wavers.

• Flames' MacKenzie Weegar: Ties game with power-play laser

  26D ago • By RotoWire

  Weegar scored a power-play goal on five shots, blocked five shots and added two hits in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Canucks. Directly off a faceoff win, Weegar wired home a long-range shot to tie the game at 4-4. The 30-year-old defenseman had the best year of his career in 2023-24, netting 20 goals with 32 assists, 208 shots on net, 194 hits and 200 blocked shots in 82 games. While it'll be tough for him to replicate his 9.6 shooting percentage from last season, Weegar should continue to be a key contributor for the Flames in a top-pairing role, in addition to his work on the first power-play unit.

It was a breakthrough season offensively for the 30-year-old blueliner -- he posted four points (a goal and three assists) in his final four contests. Weegar will finish the campaign with a career-high 52 points (20 goals, 32 assists) while adding 194 hits and 200 blocked shots in 82 games.
