Vlasic logged a shorthanded assist, two hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic ended a seven-game point drought with the helper. The 23-year-old defenseman has given way to other prospects like Sam Rinzel, Artyom Levshunov and Kevin Korchinski for power-play time lately, which largely explains Vlasic's reduced output on offense despite his top-four role. He's at 29 points (12 on the power play, one shorthanded), 100 shots on net, 146 blocked shots, 58 hits and a minus-20 rating over 79 appearances. If Vlasic is not part of the Blackhawks' long-term plans on the power play, his fantasy outlook is that of a top-four blueliner who can chip in with blocks and depth scoring, which doesn't bring universal appeal.

Vlasic logged an assist, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic has held steady in March with five points over nine contests, though he has a minus-4 rating for the month. The 23-year-old defenseman was poised for a large boost in ice time following the Seth Jones trade, but the call-up of Artyom Levshunov has balanced out the ice time on Chicago's blue line recently. Vlasic is still a top-four defender for the team and is now at 27 points, 90 shots on net, 128 blocked shots, 51 hits and a minus-16 rating over 68 appearances.

Vlasic scored a goal on three shots, blocked four shots and went minus-2 in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic got the Blackhawks on the board late in the second period, but that only made it 3-1 in the Canucks' favor. The 23-year-old defenseman has two goals and two assists over eight outings in March and continues to see top-four minutes and power-play time. The arrival of Artyom Levshunov has started to reduce Vlasic's workload slightly, but there are plenty of minutes up for grabs for young blueliners on this roster. Vlasic still has decent appeal in fantasy -- he's at four goals, 26 points, 90 shots on net, 125 blocked shots, 51 hits and a minus-14 rating over 67 appearances this season.

Vlasic scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

After a scoreless opening period, Vlasic tallied 1:56 into the second frame to break things open. The Blackhawks' lead lasted just 40 seconds before Steven Stamkos netted the first goal of what was ultimately a hat trick. Vlasic has picked up four points and a minus-1 rating over his last six outings, and he's holding his own as the Blackhawks' top overall defenseman since the Seth Jones trade with the Panthers. Vlasic is now at 25 points (three goals, 22 assists) with 86 shots on net, 48 hits, 119 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating over 64 appearances. There's still room for growth, especially in non-scoring areas, but the 23-year-old needs to be considered in many fantasy formats.

Vlasic notched a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic has six helpers over his last seven outings. The 23-year-old defenseman's role is set to increase significantly following Saturday's trade to send Seth Jones to the Panthers. Vlasic led the Blackhawks with 23:53 of ice time, and he'll likely also take over Jones' spot on the first power-play unit initially. For the season, Vlasic has 23 points, 81 shots on net, 113 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating through 60 appearances. There may be some growing pains initially as he adapts to heavier usage, but he could be a No. 1 defenseman for the Blackhawks for a couple of years. Fantasy managers should at least be familiar with what he brings to the table while acknowledging that he carries a bit of upside despite a bad team situation until the Blackhawks' rebuild hits the upswing.

Vlasic logged an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and three blocked shots in Thursday's 7-5 loss to the Golden Knights.

EDGE Analysis

With five helpers and a minus-1 rating over his last six games, Vlasic has played at a decent level lately. The 23-year-old continues to handle a top-four role, and while the Blackhawks' defense is far from elite, Vlasic is emerging as a leader on the blue line early in his career. He's now at 22 points, 81 shots on net, 112 blocked shots, 46 hits and a minus-12 rating across 59 appearances.

Vlasic notched two assists, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Friday's 6-2 win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic snapped a 14-game point drought when he set up Frank Nazar's opening goal in the first period. The 23-year-old Vlasic doubled down by setting up Ryan Donato's tally in the final frame. This was Vlasic's first multi-point effort since Dec. 15. The defenseman has already earned a career year, but he's still got some work to do in the consistency department. He's at 19 points, 76 shots on net, 105 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating over 54 contests.

Vlasic's point drought reached 14 games in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic has an even plus-minus rating, 21 blocked shots, 15 hits and 12 shots on net in that span. The 23-year-old set a career high in points with a helper Jan. 3 versus the Canadiens, but his offense has fallen flat since that game. He's at 17 points, 76 shots, 102 blocks, 42 hits and a minus-11 rating through 53 outings overall. Despite the lack of offense, Vlasic's overall game is strong enough to keep him in a top-four role.

Vlasic notched an assist, three blocked shots and two PIM in Friday's 4-2 win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic ended a seven-game drought when he helped out on a Nick Foligno's insurance tally in the third period. The 23-year-old Vlasic's dip on offense coincides with the return of Seth Jones from a broken foot. Vlasic still plays important minutes for the Blackhawks, but he's seen a reduced power-play role. Overall, he has a career-high 17 points with 64 shots on net, 81 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating over 39 appearances this season.

Vlasic produced two assists, one on the power play, in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Vlasic helped out on Taylor Hall's marker in the first period, and he added a secondary assist on the power play in the middle frame. In addition, Vlasic logged two shots on goal, two blocks, three hits and a plus-3 rating in a team-high 23:56 to round out a fruitful fantasy performance. The left-shot blueliner has been a key contributor for the Hawks in December with two goals and five helpers through eight games -- Vlasic had just nine helpers through the first two months of the campaign. The 23-year-old is leading Chicago's defensemen in scoring with two goals and 16 points through 31 contests.
