• Ducks' Pavel Mintyukov: Tallies in Tuesday's win

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Mintyukov scored a goal on three shots, added two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Blackhawks. Mintyukov has broken free of his early slump, recording three points over his last four games. The 20-year-old defenseman is up to three goals -- one shy of his total from last season -- and five points through 17 outings. He's added 23 shots on net, 25 blocked shots, 11 hits and a minus-4 rating. The Ducks' lack of offense is a concern, but Mintyukov can be a multi-category contributor (points, blocks, shots on net) in deeper formats if he can sustain his recent performance.

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Mintyukov recorded an assist in Monday's 4-2 win over the Stars. Mintyukov has two helpers over his last three contests. He's turning things around after a 10-game slump, though it helps that he's in a larger role while Cam Fowler (upper body) is sidelined. Mintyukov has four points, 20 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 16 outings.

• Ducks' Pavel Mintyukov: Picks up helper in loss

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Mintyukov recorded an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights. This was Mintyukov's first point since his two-goal game Oct. 16 versus Utah. The 20-year-old defenseman has been a regular in the Ducks' lineup, but the team's scoring struggles have hampered his scoring. In addition to three points, Mintyukov has 19 shots on net, 22 blocked shots, eight hits and a minus-4 rating over 14 appearances in a top-four role. He has some upside after putting up 28 points as a rookie last season, but with his physicality down, his overall profile isn't all that encouraging.

• Ducks' Pavel Mintyukov: Back at practice

  10/21/2024 • By RotoWire

  Mintyukov (illness) participated in Monday's practice, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports. Mintyukov should be available to play Tuesday against San Jose after missing Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Kings. He has compiled two goals, three shots on net, six blocked shots and three hits in four appearances this campaign. With Mintyukov likely to play, Olen Zellweger might be a healthy scratch against the Sharks.

• Ducks' Pavel Mintyukov: Scores twice in overtime win

  10/17/2024 • By RotoWire

  Mintyukov scored two goals and blocked three shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over Utah. Mintyukov had the Ducks' last two goals in regulation. Those tallies were his first points and also accounted for his first two shots of the year. He's added three hits, four blocked shots and a plus-3 rating while playing big minutes despite being listed in a bottom-four role. Mintyukov should continue to be a factor on the power play, which gives him upside on a Ducks team that has won two of its first three games.
