Beniers collected an assist along with one block in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Canadiens. Beniers was nearly shut out from the scoresheet in the Kraken's highest scoring output thus far but managed a secondary assist on Eeli Tolvanen's goal that capped Seattle's scoring late in the third period. The helper gave Beniers points in three straight contests. The 21-year-old winger started the season on the quiet side with just one point through the first seven outings but bounced back with five points during his three-game streak.

Beniers managed an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes. Beniers' offense is looking a bit more lively, with four points over his last two games. The 21-year-old center has five points, 21 shots on net, nine blocked shots, five hits and a plus-2 rating across nine contests. The Kraken's top line has consistently featured Jared McCann and Jordan Eberle this season, and Beniers is centering them for now, which could help him find steady production.

Beniers scored twice, added an assist and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Jets. Beniers had been limited to a single assist over the first seven games of the campaign. Reunited with Jordan Eberle and Jared McCann, Beniers broke through, scoring in the first and third periods and adding a helper on Jordan Eberle's tally in the third. With four points, 19 shots on net, seven blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over eight contests this season, Beniers will need to be more consistent to be helpful for fantasy managers, though his defensive work will keep him in a prominent role.

Beniers notched an assist, four shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Predators. The helper was Beniers' first point in four games this season. He led all Kraken forwards with 17:42 of ice time and continues to be an important two-way center, but that hasn't translated to stronger scoring numbers yet. It's not for a lack of opportunity -- he's recorded 12 shots on net and remains on the power play, so there are reasons to believe his luck will improve over time.

Beniers agreed to terms on a seven-year, $50 million contract extension with Seattle on Tuesday. Beniers suffered a sophomore slump last season, posting just 15 goals and 22 helpers in 77 outings -- well behind the 57 points in 80 games he recorded as a rookie the year prior. Still, the 2021 second-overall pick remains the top center option for the club entering the upcoming 2024-25 campaign and figures to offer decent offensive upside. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Beniers getting back over the 50-point threshold.
