Werenski scored two goals, including the winner in overtime, and added three assists in a 7-6 overtime win over Tampa Bay. It was a career game for Werenski, who logged 27:22, had eight shots and two blocks, and helped his team come back from an early 3-0 deficit. He's now tied for second among defenders in both goals (six) and points (19) in 19 games. Werenski is on a four-game, nine-point scoring streak (three goals, six assists) and he has a whopping 73 shots. That puts him third in the NHL behind David Pastrnak (87) and Brady Tkachuk (80). At some point, we all need to start talking about how much Werenski has elevated his game. And do it before his name ends up on a Norris Trophy ballot.

He's off to a strong and healthy start in 2024-25 with 10 points, 55 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating across 14 appearances.

Through 10 contests, Werenski has three goals and six assists, with four of his nine points coming on the power play. The defenseman has added 36 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating.

Werenski scored a goal on four shots, added two PIM, logged two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Predators. Werenski has five points over his last four games. The 27-year-old defenseman is up to three goals, four assists, 27 shots on net, seven blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over seven appearances this season. Werenski can be an impact player in fantasy with points, power-play production and shots, and that's been augmented by the Blue Jackets' strong start to the year on offense.
