Stars' Esa Lindell: Pockets assist in win
Lindell notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Flames.
Lindell has two helpers over his last five contests. The 30-year-old defenseman continues to see top-four minutes for the Stars, though mainly in a defensive capacity since he doesn't get much, if any, power-play time. He's now at 10 points, 42 shots on net, 23 hits, 54 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 27 outings this season. Lindell's got decent production in non-scoring areas, making him an option in deeper fantasy formats.

Stars' Esa Lindell: Logs helper Sunday
Lindell produced an assist, four shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Jets.
Lindell set up Roope Hintz for an empty-netter to close out this win. The assist ended a five-game point drought for Lindell, which was his longest slump since he opened the season with no points over the first eight contests. Offense comes and goes for the 30-year-old blueliner, who primarily features in a shutdown role. He has nine points, 35 shots on net, 19 hits, 45 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 23 outings this season. Due to his non-scoring production, Lindell is a fringe option in fantasy, and a hot stretch on offense can make him a decent streaming option.
