• Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Lights lamp in Sunday's win

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson scored a goal in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets. Carlsson ended a four-game slump with his tally midway through the third period, which ended up being the game-winner. The 19-year-old center has had to deal with frequent changes in linemates as head coach Greg Cronin looks for combinations to spark an offense that has scored three or more goals just five times in 14 contests. Carlsson is at five tallies, two assists, 26 shots on net and a minus-3 rating this season, and he should continue to be a fixture in the top six and on the power play.

• Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Nets power-play marker

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson scored a power-play goal in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Islanders. Carlsson opened the scoring at 14:05 of the first period. The center has four goals, including two on the power play, as well as two assists, 18 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through nine appearances. Carlsson may not yet be a point-per-game threat, but he's providing decent offense from a top-line role in his second campaign. Given that he was liked more for his playmaking when he was drafted, there's more offense to unlock here.

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Carlsson logged an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Rangers. All five of Carlsson's points this season have come over the last five games. The 19-year-old center has added 16 shots on net, four blocked shots, three hits and a plus-1 rating over seven appearances. Carlsson is playing on the first line, but with a lot of flexibility in the Ducks' lineup, he may not always lead the team's centers in ice time. He should continue to be consistent on offense, though his upside in non-scoring areas is limited.

  Carlsson scored a goal on three shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Avalanche. Carlsson's goal just barely got over the line, opening the scoring at 6:05 of the first period. The center is up to three points, 10 shots on net and a plus-2 rating across four contests this season. Carlsson is a name to keep an eye on in redraft formats in 2024-25, as his top-line role and significant power-play time could help him be productive in his second NHL campaign.

  10/03/2024 • By RotoWire

  Carlsson scored a goal on two shots and added two assists in Wednesday's 5-2 preseason win over Utah. Carlsson is up to four points over two preseason appearances after playing a leading role Wednesday. The 19-year-old center's rookie campaign was abbreviated by a workload management plan and multiple injuries, which limited him to 29 points in 55 contests last year. He could be poised for a breakout in 2024-25, especially if the team around him also takes a step forward.
