The 30-year-old center remained on the second line Tuesday despite the return of Macklin Celebrini from a lower-body injury.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Generates assist in win
Wennberg notched an assist in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Kings.
Wennberg's resurgence on offense has seen him pick up five points over his last four games. That's all of his scoring this season, and the center has added 16 shots on net, 11 blocked shots, eight hits and a minus-3 rating through 11 appearances. Wennberg looks set to hold down the second-line center spot until Macklin Celebrini (lower body) is able to return, at which point Wennberg would likely move to the third line.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Seals comeback win
Wennberg scored a power-play goal on six shots, added an assist and went plus-4 in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over Utah.
Wennberg helped out on Tyler Toffoli's game-tying goal before scoring the game-winner himself at 1:26 of overtime. The standout number here is six shots -- that matches Wennberg's career high for shots in a game, a mark he last achieved Oct. 14, 2014 in his rookie campaign. The playmaking center has four points, 15 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 10 outings this season, with all of his points coming over the last three contests.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Gets on scoresheet with two helpers
Wennberg logged a pair of power-play assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Kings.
These were Wennberg's first points in eight appearances to begin his Sharks career. The 30-year-old center was signed to a two-year, $10 million contract in free agency, but as a playmaker, he was always likely to struggle with unproven teammates all around him. Wennberg has added nine shots on net, seven blocked shots, five hits and a minus-7 rating. He has more value on the ice than in fantasy as a pass-first, defensive center.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Inks $10 million deal
Wennberg agreed to terms on a two-year, $10 million contract with the Sharks on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Wennberg barely made the 30-point threshold this past season, needing 79 regular-season games split between the Kraken and Rangers to do it. The 29-year-old center looks poised to slot into a third-line role but could also be shifted to wing if the Sharks want to keep youngster Will Smith in his natural position.

Wennberg helped out on Alexis Lafreniere's goal in the first period. It was the first point in six playoff contests this year for the 29-year-old Wennberg, who is relied upon for depth, not primary scoring. He's been serving as the Rangers' third-line center between Will Cuylle and Kaapo Kakko.

Rangers' Alexander Wennberg: Ready to rock
Wennberg (undisclosed) will be in the lineup for Game 3 versus Washington on Friday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

Rangers' Alexander Wennberg: Status uncertain
Wennberg is questionable to face the Capitals for Game 3 on Friday with an undisclosed injury, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.
Wennerg's absence from Thursday's practice was deemed maintenance and he was on the ice for an optional game-day skate Friday, so coach Peter Laviolette may just be playing it coy about Wennberg's availability. Still, it's a situation that fantasy players will have to monitor prior to puck drop. If Wennberg can't go Friday, Jonny Brodzinski figures to have the inside track for a spot in the lineup.

Wennberg (personal) is back with the Rangers ahead of Thursday's game versus Colorado, per Peter Baugh of The Athletic.
Wennberg missed Tuesday's tilt against the Flyers as his wife gave birth earlier in the week.

Rangers' Alexander Wennberg: Joining Blueshirts
Wennberg was traded to the Rangers by the Kraken on Wednesday in exchange for a second- and fourth-round pick in 2024 and 2025, respectively, Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic reports.
Wennberg hasn't exactly been tearing it up lately with just one goal and a mere 16 shots in his last 13 outings, though he did chip in with five helpers over that stretch. Still, the 29-year-old center figures to challenge for a spot on the Rangers' No. 2 power-play unit while also moving into the third-line center role. Despite the recent slump, Wennberg should be capable of getting over the 30-point threshold for the third straight year.

Kraken's Alexander Wennberg: One of each in narrow win
Wennberg scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an assist in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Penguins.
Wennberg's contributions helped Philipp Grubauer walk away with his first shutout of the campaign. This was Wennberg's first multi-point effort in 2023-24 -- his last was in the second round of the playoffs versus the Stars last spring. The center posted a meager one goal and four assists over nine outings in February. Wennberg is at 25 points, 79 shots on net, 64 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 59 appearances. Despite his lack of offense, he could be a trade target over the next week for his solid two-way play.

For the season, he has 23 points, 76 shots on net, 63 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 58 appearances.

Kraken's Alexander Wennberg: Nabs assist Thursday
Wennberg posted an assist, three shots on goal, three hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Bruins.
Wennberg played a solid all-around game and set up Matty Beniers for an insurance marker in the third period. With four points over his last eight outings, Wennberg is keeping a steady pace in his second-line role. The center has 22 points, 71 shots on net, 59 blocked shots, 33 hits and a plus-1 rating through 54 contests this season. His defensive work keeps him in the top six, but the lack of offense deters most fantasy managers.

Wennberg is up to 21 points, 66 shots on net, 56 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 51 outings this season.
