Ducks' Olen Zellweger: Earns assist in win
Olen Zellweger logged an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Stars.Zellweger ended a nine-game point drought, dating back to Dec. 23, when he assisted on Trevor Zegras' tally in the third period. In that span, Zellweger was scratched 11 times as he continues to compete with Drew Helleson and Pavel Mintyukov for the last two spots on the Anaheim Ducks' blue line. Zellweger has 13 points, 82 shots on net, 44 blocked shots, 28 hits and a plus-2 rating over 40 appearances. He sees power-play time when he's in the lineup, but the inconsistent playing time will make it tough to roster the 21-year-old defenseman in fantasy.

Ducks' Olen Zellweger: Spotty playing time in January
Olen Zellweger was scratched for the seventh time in 13 games when he sat out Saturday's 5-2 win over the Predators.Zellweger's playing time has been spotty in January. Jackson LaCombe has become an everyday player, leaving Zellweger to compete with Pavel Mintyukov and Drew Helleson for third-pairing minutes. It's a battle Zellweger's been losing lately, and it may lead to him getting reassigned to AHL San Diego eventually. When he's been in action, the 21-year-old has 12 points, 80 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 38 appearances, but given his age, a little extra development time with the Gulls wouldn't hurt.

He should continue to find opportunities to produce from the Anaheim Ducks' blue line, especially if he remains a member of one of the power play units.
