Stars' Ilya Lyubushkin: Dishes pair of helpers
Lyubushkin notched two assists, two shots on goal, a plus-2 rating and four blocked shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Wild.
Lyubushkin has just five assists this season, all of which have come over seven contests in November. This was his second multi-point effort of the campaign, as he helped out on both of Mason Marchment's goals. Lyubushkin's biggest contributions are usually of the physical variety -- he's recorded at least one blocked shot in each game this season. The blueliner has 30 blocks, 17 hits, eight shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 16 appearances while filling a bottom-four role.

Stars' Ilya Lyubushkin: Generates assist
Lyubushkin logged an assist, three hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Lyubushkin has found some offense in November, posting three assists over his last three contests. The defenseman did not get on the scoresheet over nine games in October. That's not unusual -- he brings a physical element to the Stars' blue line, with little offense to add. He's recorded six shots on net, four PIM, 15 hits, 22 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 12 appearances in a bottom-four role.

Stars' Ilya Lyubushkin: Contributes offense in defeat
Lyubushkin provided two even-strength assists in Friday's 6-4 defeat to the Panthers.
Lyubushkin's pair of helpers were his first two points of the campaign. The Russian blueliner added one shot, one block, two hits and a plus-2 rating in 18:33 of ice time to round out a solid fantasy performance. While Lyubushkin isn't known for his offensive prowess, he's currently paired with offensive-minded Thomas Harley, so there could be an opportunity for the former to challenge his career-high mark in points (15), which he achieved during the 2021-22 campaign split between Arizona and Toronto.

Stars' Ilya Lyubushkin: Inks three-year agreement
Lyubushkin signed a three-year, $9.75 million contract with the Stars on Monday.
Lyubushkin had eight points (all assists), 57 PIM, 176 hits and 168 blocked shots in 74 regular-season contests between Anaheim and Toronto in 2023-24. The 30-year-old is likely to serve primarily on the third pairing with the Stars. Between Lyubushkin and Matt Dumba, who also signed a two-year deal with the Stars, Dallas is adding a lot of grit to its defense.

Lyubushkin notched an assist and nine hits in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Bruins in Game 4.
Lyubushkin has had a busy couple of days after making a round trip from Toronto to California to attend the birth of his daughter. The 30-year-old was able to avoid missing a game and now has two assists, 16 hits and three blocked shots over four playoff contests. Lyubushkin remains a steady part of the Maple Leafs' bottom four even as the team faces a 3-1 series deficit heading into Tuesday's Game 5.

Lyubushkin (personal) is back at practice Saturday and will be in the lineup for Game 4 versus Boston, according to Mark Masters of TSN.
Lyubushkin went to California after Wednesday's Game 3 loss to Boston and witnessed the birth of his daughter. Lyubushkin had four assists, 64 hits and 30 blocked shots in 19 regular-season games with Toronto after he was dealt from Anaheim at the end of February. He will team up with Morgan Rielly on the top defensive pairing for Saturday's tilt with the Bruins.

Lyubushkin (personal) missed practice Friday, but he'll still be an option to play Saturday in Game 4 versus Boston, per Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun.
Lyubushkin left the team for the birth of his third child after Wednesday's loss to Boston. The 30-year-old rearguard is expected to return ahead of Game 4 versus Boston on Saturday. Lyubushkin had four assists, 64 hits and 30 blocked shots in 19 regular-season games with the Maple Leafs after he was dealt from Anaheim on Feb. 29. Look for Timothy Liljegren to remain in the lineup, should Lyubushkin be unavailable Saturday.

The 30-year-old Lyubushkin was on the ice for two of the Maple Leafs' three goals and logged 13:40 of ice time. He will likely skate on the first defensive pairing with Morgan Rielly during Game 3 on Wednesday.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Under the weather
Lyubushkin is dealing with an illness and is not expected to play against the Flyers on Tuesday, David Alter of The Hockey News reports.
Lyubushkin still hasn't scored a goal this season, adding just six assists in 62 games for the Ducks and Maple Leafs. As such, few fantasy managers will likely be impacted by his potential absence, though he has racked up plenty of hits (140) and blocked shots (148) and could have value in formats that value defensive stats.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Good to go
Lyubushkin (head) is expected to play Monday against Boston, Mark Masters of TSN reports.
The 29-year-old Russian exited Saturday's win over the Rangers in the second period after absorbing a heavy hit from New York's Matt Rempe, but it appears Lyubushkin has already shaken off his issue.

Maple Leafs' Ilya Lyubushkin: Heading back to Toronto
Lyubushkin was traded from the Ducks to the Maple Leafs via the Hurricanes on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Unsigned winger Kirill Slepets' signing rights were also traded from the Hurricanes to the Maple Leafs, LeBrun reports. Lyubushkin had six points in 31 contests with the Maple Leafs in 2021-22 following a trade from the Coyotes, and he added 14 points over 68 outings with the Sabres last season. He's been less effective on offense in 2023-24, with four assists and 38 shots on net over 55 contests with Anaheim, though he's added a physical element in a bottom-four role with 112 hits, 138 blocked shots and 51 PIM.

Lyubushkin (upper body) will return to action Wednesday against San Jose, per Alyson Lozoff of Bally Sports West.
Lyubushkin hasn't produced much for Anaheim this year, recording only four assists in 46 games. The 29-year-old will look to help the struggling Ducks with his defensive play where he's logged 72 hits and 119 blocked shots on the season. He will line up on the third defensive pairing with Urho Vaakanainen against the Sharks.

Lyubushkin (upper body) is not in the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Wild.
Lyubushkin will be out for the third time in the last four games. The 29-year-old defenseman has gone 12 contests without a point, so his absence won't be noticed much in fantasy. He has one chance to return before the Ducks' bye week -- Wednesday at home versus the Sharks.
