Top Brett Kulak News

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Deals assist Monday

    Kulak posted an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 6-5 loss to the Panthers.

    Kulak continues to chip in a little depth scoring from the blue line with four points and a plus-8 rating over his last 12 contests. He's still seeing second-pairing minutes, though more as a defensive presence. The 30-year-old blueliner is up to 11 points, 52 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 31 outings. He's on pace to surpass his career high of 21 points from 2021-22, a season he split between the Oilers and Canadiens.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Logs helper Tuesday

    Kulak had an assist in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Lightning.

    Kulak picked up his first point over four games in December when he assisted on a Connor McDavid goal. The 30-year-old Kulak remains listed on the third pairing, but he has functioned as a top-four option for the Oilers this season. The shutdown blueliner has 10 points, 46 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 28 appearances.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Scores in Saturday's win

    Kulak scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche.

    Kulak posted six points over 13 contests in November. That constitutes a pretty good month for a defenseman who isn't known for his scoring. This season, he has five goals -- one shy of his career high -- and nine points through 24 outings, and he's added 39 shots on net, 29 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. Kulak's on pace to challenge for his first 30-point campaign, but he's also shooting 12.8 percent, which is more than twice as efficient as his next best season, so the bottom could fall out at any time.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Pockets helper Thursday

    Kulak notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

    Kulak picked up his fourth point in the last four games when he set up Darnell Nurse's second-period tally. While Kulak was listed on the third pairing Thursday, he saw 21:54 of ice time as one of the Oilers' top-four blueliners by usage with the team dressing seven defensemen. Kulak is up to seven points, 23 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 17 contests this season. Despite his recent success, the 30-year-old has limited scoring upside, and thus only makes sense for fantasy managers in deeper formats.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Earns two points Saturday

    Kulak scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Canucks.

    Kulak has scored in back-to-back games following a slump over the previous eight contests. The 30-year-old defenseman remains listed on the third pairing, but he's seeing usage in line with a second-pairing blueliner. For the season, he's at four goals, two assists, 21 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 15 appearances. That's still likely too little production for most fantasy managers, though he has some appeal in deep formats.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Tallies in Wednesday's loss

    Kulak scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

    Kulak hadn't gotten on the scoresheet since his two-goal game Oct. 17 versus the Predators. The 30-year-old defenseman tied the game at 1-1 with his second-period tally. He's up to three goals, one assist, 19 shots on net, 21 blocked shots, five hits and a minus-2 rating over 14 appearances. He's exceeded 20 minutes of ice time in five of the last seven games, so it appears Kulak is gaining trust with head coach Kris Knoblauch.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Surprise two-goal man in win

    Kulak scored two goals and blocked three shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Predators.

    Kulak tied the game at 1-1 late in the first period and then added an empty-netter to seal the win in the third. Considering he hasn't scored more than six goals in any of his NHL seasons, a two-goal game is a rarity for the 30-year-old defenseman. He's up to three points, nine shots on net, six blocked shots and two PIM through five appearances in a third-pairing role this year.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Picks up assist Tuesday

    Kulak notched an assist and two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Flyers.

    Kulak got on the scoresheet with a secondary helper on an Adam Henrique goal in the second period. The 30-year-old Kulak remains a fixture on the Oilers' third pairing. He has provided seven shots on net, one hit, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating, while his assist Tuesday was his first point through four contests.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Pockets helper Friday

    Kulak recorded an assist and two blocked shots in Friday's 5-1 win over the Panthers in Game 6.

    Kulak has a helper in three of the last four games. The defenseman has been a surprising source of depth offense with eight points through 24 playoff contests after he logged just 16 points in 82 regular-season outings. He's added 45 blocks, 22 hits, 14 PIM, 21 shots on net and a minus-1 rating this postseason while skating on the third pairing.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Garners assist in Game 3

    Kulak provided an assist, three blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Panthers in Game 3.

    The helper ended a seven-game slump for Kulak. The defenseman has earned six points, 18 shots on net, 20 hits, 42 blocked shots, 12 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 21 playoff appearances. Kulak remains in a third-pairing role and isn't overly physical, but he's been steady for an Oilers defense that has become tumultuous in the Stanley Cup Finals.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Contributes assist in Game 1 win

    Kulak recorded an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Stars in Game 1.

    Kulak has a helper in three of the last four games to provide some depth offense from the third defensive pairing. The 30-year-old is up to five points, 10 shots on net, 21 blocked shots, 18 hits and a plus-3 rating through 13 playoff appearances. While he won't see big minutes or power-play time, Kulak is a steady blueliner who can keep things under control in his own zone.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Sets up opening goal

    Kulak notched an assist in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks in Game 7.

    Kulak has a helper in two of the last three contests. The 30-year-old set up defense partner Cody Ceci's tally in the second period of Game 7. Kulak is up to four points, eight shots on net, 18 blocked shots, 17 hits and a plus-3 rating through 12 playoff appearances while filling a third-pairing role.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Regsiters helper Thursday

    Kulak produced an assist, three blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Canucks in Game 5.

    Kulak is up to three points over 10 playoff contests after helping out on a Mattias Janmark tally in the first period. The 30-year-old Kulak has provided steady defense from a third-pairing role, adding 17 blocked shots, 13 hits and a plus-1 rating. He's a staple in the lineup, but he rarely contributes much in the way of fantasy-relevant production.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Pots goal in loss

    Kulak scored a goal and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings in Game 2.

    Kulak got the Oilers on the board in the first period after a slow start. The 30-year-old defenseman hadn't scored since March 2, earning just six assists over 25 contests between tallies. Kulak's spot in the lineup appears to be safe, but he's been limited to a third-pairing role after posting 16 points, 94 shots on net, 88 blocked shots and 77 hits over 82 regular-season games.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Generates assist Thursday

    Kulak notched an assist, three shots on goal, four blocked shots, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Avalanche.

    A heavily rotated Oilers team stood no chance against the full force of the Avalanche's lineup. Kulak saw a season-high 20:49 of ice time in the contest, but he'll likely be back in his familiar third-pairing role for the start of the playoffs. The Oilers begin their first-round series against the Kings on Monday. Kulak concludes the regular season with 16 points, 94 shots on net, 88 blocked shots and 77 hits over 82 appearances.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Manages assist Monday

    Kulak posted an assist and two hits in Monday's 9-2 win over the Sharks.

    Kulak has two helpers over his last six games. The 30-year-old defenseman doesn't tend to chip in much offense from a third-pairing role, which has occasionally led to him seeing limited minutes. He's produced 15 points, 88 shots on net, 83 blocked shots, 71 hits and a plus-3 rating over 80 appearances this season.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Pockets helper

    Kulak provided an assist and two PIM in Friday's 6-2 win over the Avalanche.

    Despite the lopsided score, Kulak also managed to go minus-1. The helper was his first point in 11 contests. The 30-year-old defenseman has 14 points, 80 shots on net, 67 hits, 73 blocked shots, 26 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 75 outings overall, offering minimal fantasy upside from his third-pairing role.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Back in action Monday

    Kulak (head) will be in the lineup versus the Blues on Monday, per NHL.com.

    Kulak has managed just one point in his last 13 games while recording 19 blocked shots and 14 hits. Given his limited offensive upside, the defenseman shouldn't be expected to offer much in fantasy formats outside of defensive stats. With Kulak and Cody Ceci (illness) back in the lineup, Troy Stecher is line to be a healthy scratch.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Will travel with team

    Kulak (head) will be evaluated for an injury, but he is expected to travel with the Oilers on their upcoming two-game road trip, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

    Kulak was limited to 49 seconds of ice time Saturday after taking a puck to the head on his first shift. The 30-year-old defenseman is not believed to have suffered a significant injury -- it's likely his absence from the remainder of the game was precautionary, given the Oilers established a large lead after the first period. An update on Kulak's status should come before Monday's game versus the Blues.

  • Oilers' Brett Kulak: Snags helper

    Kulak recorded an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Capitals.

    Kulak snapped a four-game point drought with the helper. The 30-year-old defenseman has 13 points over 64 contests this season, with four of those points coming over seven games in March. He's added 72 shots on net, 56 hits, 59 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating on the year while filling a third-pairing role that's produced little fantasy impact.
