Chiarot scored a goal and dished out three hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Blues.

Chiarot scored his first goal of the season midway through the first period to tie the game at 1-1. The 34-year-old blueliner is up to three points, 20 hits and 17 blocks through 10 appearances this year. While he doesn't chip in much offensively, he has provided 100-plus blocks, 100-plus hits and 100-plus shots in three straight seasons. Chiarot's category coverage could provide decent value in deeper fantasy leagues.

Seider dished out a power-play assist and put two shots on net in Tuesday's 5-2 win over St. Louis.

After experiencing a five-game point drought, Seider got back on the scoresheet with the primary helper on Alex DeBrincat's power-play goal. Following Tuesday's performance, the 24-year-old Seider is up to three assists, 22 shots on net, 21 hits and 14 blocks through 10 games this season. Seider has struggled offensively early in the year but has maintained strong category coverage. He is on pace for another 200-hit, 100-block season. He has hit the 40-point mark in four consecutive seasons and should improve his offensive totals as the season progresses.

Sanderson scored a goal in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

Sanderson scored Ottawa's first goal at the 4:58 mark of the second period. He remains a valuable offensive contributor for the Senators, accounting for two goals and 10 points through 11 appearances this season. He's on a run of three straight games with at least one point, tallying one goal and four helpers over that stretch.

Dumoulin logged an assist and four blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

Dumoulin earned his first point as a King when he set up Drew Doughty in the second period. The 34-year-old Dumoulin has seen top-four usage early in 2025-26, including a spot alongside Doughty at even strength in recent contests. For the season, Dumoulin has 13 shots on net, 11 hits, 16 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 11 appearances.

Edmundson logged two assists and two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

Edmundson has picked up the pace with four helpers over his last three games. The 32-year-old defenseman won't be able to sustain that level of offense for long, but it has been enough for him to see his ice time bounce back recently. He's at five assists, 10 shots on net, 14 hits, nine blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-6 rating through 11 appearances in a bottom-four role as a shutdown defender.

Doughty scored a goal, blocked four shots and added two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

Doughty ended a six-game slump with his second-period tally. The 35-year-old defenseman is up to four points, 15 shots on net, seven hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating across 11 appearances. He likely won't hit as much as he did earlier in his career, but he can still be a steady source of blocks. The big question is what level of offense he'll ultimately provide -- he had at least 50 points in his last two healthy seasons, but he's well off that pace early in 2025-26.

Clarke scored a goal, dished an assist, added two PIM, blocked two shots and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

Clarke set up Corey Perry's opening tally midway through the first period before scoring a goal of his own -- the game-winner -- at 13:20 of the third. Despite the strong game on offense, Clarke saw a season-low 13:22 of ice time, likely a product of the Kings leaking 40 shots on net. The 22-year-old defenseman has five points over his last three games, and he's up to two goals, seven points, 18 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 11 appearances. His spot in the lineup looks fairly safe, but his ice time may continue to fluctuate, as he doesn't have head coach Jim Hiller's full trust yet.

Montour scored twice on four shots, added an assist, logged two hits, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canadiens.

This was Montour's second game back after he took of leave of absence to be with his family due to the death of his brother. The defenseman put together a masterful third period Tuesday, helping the Kraken earn a standings point as he accumulated his three points in less than 10 minutes to force overtime. Montour is at two goals, five assists, 18 shots on net, 14 blocked shots, 10 hits and a plus-6 rating through six appearances this season. He plays in all situations and can offer all-around production for fantasy managers, though his offense is bound to cool off as the year progresses.

Dobson logged two assists, including one on the power play, and added three shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kraken.

This was Dobson's first multi-point effort in a Canadiens uniform. The 25-year-old hasn't been held off the scoresheet in consecutive contests, but his longest streak is just two games. The defenseman is at one goal, six helpers, 19 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 11 appearances. His power-play time has dropped as he plays second fiddle to Lane Hutson, but Dobson is talented enough to remain productive on offense through primarily even-strength contributions.

Fox recorded two assists and two hits in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Canucks.

Fox collected his third multi-point effort of the season, which is somewhat impressive considering the Rangers have scored multiple goals in just five of their first 11 contests. The 27-year-old defenseman has been partially impacted by the scoring ineptitude around him, but he still has three goals, six helpers, 22 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating so far. He's the Rangers' leader on defense and will continue to play a massive role, so it's no surprise he's heavily involved on the scoresheet.
