Wennberg (undisclosed) will be in the lineup for Game 3 versus Washington on Friday, per Michael Russo of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Wennberg took a maintenance day Thursday, but he was back on the ice for morning skate Friday. The 29--year-old will center the third line between Will Cuylle and Kaapo Kakko while seeing second-unit power-play time in Game 3. Wennberg had only one goal and four assists in 19 games with the Rangers following his trade from Seattle on March 6.

Wennberg is questionable to face the Capitals for Game 3 on Friday with an undisclosed injury, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

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 was a plus-1 with one shot during Thursday's 3-2 shootout win over Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

Wennberg missed Tuesday's game due to the birth of his child. The recent acquisition has a goal and four assists through 10 games since joining the Rangers.

Wennberg (personal) is back with the Rangers ahead of Thursday's game versus Colorado, per Peter Baugh of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Wennberg missed Tuesday's tilt against the Flyers as his wife gave birth earlier in the week. Should Wennberg reenter the lineup against the Avalanche, look for Jonny Brodzinski to be a healthy scratch. Wennberg has a goal and four points in nine games with New York following his trade from Seattle, where he managed nine goals and 25 points in 60 appearances.

Wennberg (personal) won't play Tuesday against Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

Wennberg will be replaced in the lineup by Jonny Brodzinski. The 29-year-old Wennberg has 10 goals and 29 points in 69 games between the Rangers and Kraken this campaign.

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.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Head coach Dave Hakstol told Kate Shefte of The Seattle Times on Monday that Wennberg won't play against Calgary because of "trade-related issues."

EDGE Analysis

Wennberg has generated nine goals, 25 points, 80 shots on net and 65 blocked shots in 60 games this season. He is eligible for unrestricted free agency in the summer and carries a $4.5 million cap hit.

Wennberg scored a power-play goal on three shots and added an assist in Thursday's 2-0 win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Wennberg notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 4-3 shootout win over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Wennberg helped out on an Oliver Bjorkstrand goal in the third period. This was Wennberg's third helper over eight games in February. The center is stuck in an 11-game goal drought, but he's maintained his place as the second-line center with his strong 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.

Wennberg posted an assist, three shots on goal, three hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

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.
