Hockey Club's Mikhail Sergachev: Generates assist Saturday
Mikhail Sergachev registered an assist in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Kings.Sergachev had put up just one assist over his previous six contests. The 26-year-old blueliner has become a player to focus on for opposing teams, as the Utah defense corps is missing John Marino (back) and Sean Durzi (shoulder) due to long-term injuries. Sergachev has produced five assists, 17 shots on net, four hits, 18 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through nine appearances while playing on the top pairing and first power-play unit.

Hockey Club's Mikhail Sergachev: Garners assist in overtime loss
Mikhail Sergachev logged an assist and four blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Ducks.Sergachev figures to be an even bigger part of Utah's game plan now that Sean Durzi (upper body) is sidelined. Sergachev is up to four assists (one on the power play), five shots on goal and 12 blocked shots through five contests. The 26-year-old defenseman is poised to play big minutes in all situations, which could set him up to challenge his career-best 64-point campaign from 2022-23.

Hockey Club's Mikhail Sergachev: Two assists Thursday
Mikhail Sergachev picked up two assists in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win against the Islanders.Sergachev registered the primary assist on Barrett Hayton's second-period marker before adding a power-play assist on Dylan Guenther's third-period tally. Sergachev added one shot, three blocks, two takeaways and a minus-1 rating in 24:59 of ice time. The left-shot defenseman is in his first year with his new club after being acquired in a trade from Tampa Bay in June. Sergachev should be a highly-valued blueliner from a fantasy perspective this season -- the 2016 first-round pick is skating on Utah's top defense pair while also being insulated with offensive talent on the club's top power-play unit.

Hockey Club's Mikhail Sergachev: Picks up assist in team debut
Mikhail Sergachev notched an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.Traded from the Lightning to Utah at the draft, Sergachev is poised to be the new franchise's leader on the blue line. The 26-year-old defenseman saw a team-high 23:52 of ice time Tuesday, and he was able to contribute an assist when Barrett Hayton tipped in his shot. Sergachev was limited to 19 points, 70 blocked shots and a minus-16 rating over 34 games in 2023-24, but his struggles can be attributed to missing 48 of the last 49 regular-season contests due to two separate lower-body injuries. When healthy, Sergachev has flashed 60-point potential and also contributed plenty of hits and blocked shots.

Mikhail Sergachev: Traded to Utah
Utah acquired Mikhail Sergachev from Tampa Bay on Saturday in exchange for Conor Geekie, J.J. Moser, a 2025 second-round pick and a 2024 seventh-round selection.No salary was retained by the Lightning in the deal, meaning Utah will absorb Sergachev's $8.5 million cap hit through the 2030-31 season. The defender is coming off an injury-riddled year but showed his elite value with a dominant 64-point campaign in 2022-23. Sergachev immediately assumes number-one status in Utah and will run the team's power play.

The 25-year-old blueliner didn't see his usual workload, but that's to be expected given his long layoff. He'll likely see similar ice time Monday in Game 5.
