Through seven games in November, Pietrangelo has amassed three goals and five helpers. The 31-year-old is at nine points, 46 shots on net, 33 blocks and an even plus-minus rating in 15 contests overall, but he's been much more effective lately after starting the season a bit slow.

Pietrangelo started slow last year too -- while it's not ideal, fantasy managers who held onto him are now being rewarded for their patience.

EDGE Analysis
Pietrangelo got on the scoresheet for the first time this year by assisting on a Nicolas Hague goal in the second period.

He's posted a minus-6 rating with 25 shots on net and 19 blocks in eight outings, but his offense should come around eventually.

Pietrangelo has yet to produce a point in five games this season.
EDGE Analysis
It's been a rather ugly start to the year for both the Golden Knights as a team and Pietrangelo individually. The Ontario native has a minus-7 rating, 16 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and two PIM so far. With Alec Martinez (lower body) sidelined, Pietrangelo will likely be asked to focus on defense in the near term. He had 23 points in 41 contests last year, his first with the Golden Knights.

The 31-year-old defenseman was productive in the playoffs with 12 points, 76 shots, 52 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating in 19 contests.

EDGE Analysis
Pietrangelo has tallied three times in his last two games. The star defenseman has brought his best in the postseason with 11 points, 63 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 16 games.
