Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Records pair of assists
Rotowire
Carlsson posted two assists, including one on the power play, in Friday's 6-4 win over the Red Wings.
Carlsson picked up his second multi-point effort in this contest. He has three points over his last three contests, bouncing back from a four-game slump before that. The 19-year-old center is up to nine points (three on the power play), 26 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 16 outings in a top-six role. Carlsson should be able to grow his offense over the course of the season, though the Ducks have struggled to score as a team, so that could limit his upside slightly.

Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Lights lamp in Sunday's win
Rotowire
Carlsson scored a goal in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
Carlsson ended a four-game slump with his tally midway through the third period, which ended up being the game-winner. The 19-year-old center has had to deal with frequent changes in linemates as head coach Greg Cronin looks for combinations to spark an offense that has scored three or more goals just five times in 14 contests. Carlsson is at five tallies, two assists, 26 shots on net and a minus-3 rating this season, and he should continue to be a fixture in the top six and on the power play.

Rotowire

Carlsson opened the scoring at 14:05 of the first period. The center has four goals, including two on the power play, as well as two assists, 18 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through nine appearances. Carlsson may not yet be a point-per-game threat, but he's providing decent offense from a top-line role in his second campaign. Given that he was liked more for his playmaking when he was drafted, there's more offense to unlock here.

The 19-year-old center has added 16 shots on net, four blocked shots, three hits and a plus-1 rating over seven appearances. Carlsson is playing on the first line, but with a lot of flexibility in the Ducks' lineup, he may not always lead the team's centers in ice time. He should continue to be consistent on offense, though his upside in non-scoring areas is limited.

Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Leads offense with three points
Rotowire
Carlsson scored a goal on two shots and added two assists in Wednesday's 5-2 preseason win over Utah.
Carlsson is up to four points over two preseason appearances after playing a leading role Wednesday. The 19-year-old center's rookie campaign was abbreviated by a workload management plan and multiple injuries, which limited him to 29 points in 55 contests last year. He could be poised for a breakout in 2024-25, especially if the team around him also takes a step forward.
Carlsson posted an assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Carlsson had five points over seven outings in April to salvage a positive finish to an eventful rookie year. He was strong with 29 points, 109 shots on net and a minus-11 rating, but between workload management and injuries, he ended up playing just 55 games. Carlsson figures to be the Ducks' top-line center in 2024-25, though the team around him will need to be stronger to help him build up his production.

Rotowire
Carlsson scored a goal on three shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Kraken.
This was Carlsson's first goal and third point in 10 games since he returned from a concussion in mid-March. The rookie center is not exactly tearing things up to close out 2023-24. He's now at 10 goals, 26 points, 98 shots on net and a minus-9 rating through 50 appearances.

Ducks' Leo Carlsson: Exits Thursday's game
Rotowire
Carlsson left Thursday's game versus the Blackhawks with a lower-body injury.
He collided with Alex Vlasic in the second period, and Carlsson got the worst of it. He needed assistance to the locker room after what appeared to be a knee-on-knee collision. Considering Carlsson has already missed time with a knee injury previously in the season, there's plenty of reason for concern for the 19-year-old. If the injury is severe, it could end his season.

Rotowire
Carlsson notched an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Blues.
Carlsson saw 19:05 of ice time in his return from an eight-game absence due to a concussion. The 19-year-old was right back in his usual spot on the top line and first power-play unit Sunday. Carlsson is up to 24 points (eight on the power play), 82 shots on net and a minus-7 rating through 41 appearances in his rookie campaign. Fantasy managers can activate him safely, but while his role is good, his team situation is diminished following the trade deadline.
