Seabrook picked up two assists on the power play in Sunday's 6-4 victory over Boston.
EDGE Analysis
Sunday marked the second straight game in which the veteran blueliner recorded multiple points. His 24:39 led the Blackhawks in ice time, and he also added three shots and three blocked shots. Seabrook's 46 points this season are the most he's picked up since recording 48 during the 2010-11 campaign.

Seabrook (illness) will return to the lineup Friday night against the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Seabrook's been enjoying one of his better campaigns with 29 helpers and 42 points in 76 games. However, he's gone without a goal or assist in nine consecutive games, and that's quite unfortunate given that plenty of fantasy owners are are in the midst of the playoffs.

Seabrook will not play Tuesday against the Wild due to an illness.
EDGE Analysis
Seabrook is not seemingly facing a long-term absence due to the illness, but it will prevent him from taking the ice Tuesday. He should have a chance to play in the Blackhawks' next game Friday against the Jets.

Seabrook tallied a goal and two assists in Wednesday's 5-2 triumph over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Seabrook has five points in his last five appearances, and is just seven points short of his career high through just 65 games. While Duncan Keith is considered the more offensively gifted blueliner in Chicago, Seabrook has consistently proven that he can chip in on that end when called upon. Look for him to continue getting on the scoreboard in the closing stages of the season as his Blackhawks compete with the Stars for the Central Division crown.

Seabrook netted two goals -- one on the power play -- in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Seabrook reached 10 goals on the season, a first for his 10-year career. The 30-year-old is not known for his scoring ability -- tallying only three multi-goal games in his tenure -- but he contributes as a solid helper and will continue to see the ice early and often.

Seabrook collected a pair of helpers in Friday's 4-1 win over Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
The Canadian rearguard grabbed secondary apples on goals by rookie Artemi Panarin and Patrick Kane, who notched his first ever regular-season hat trick Friday. Seabrook's 31 points pace Blackhawks defensemen, although Duncan Keith is just three points behind despite having played 10 fewer games. He's never scored more than 48 in a season, so if the stars align, Seabs could crack the 50-point plateau for the first time in his 11th NHL season.

Seabrook rifled one past the keeper against the Predators on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Seabrook leads all Blackhawk blueliners in points this season with 29. The 30-year-old has tallied seven goals on the year and needs just three more to set a new career high. Averaging over 23 minutes of ice time per game this season, Seabrook will have plenty of opportunities to get on the scoresheet.

Seabrook chipped in a pair of helpers to go with a plus-2 rating and two penalty minutes Tuesday in a 3-2 overtime win against Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Although Seabrook saw his scoring hit a little lull after Duncan Keith's return from injury, he's on fire again now, with six points in the last five games. After uncharacteristically seeing his ice time dip under 20 minutes in Sunday's game, Seabrook played a more typical 23:34 in this one. Not being the first scoring option from the blue line hurts, but the 30-year-old vet has clearly settled into his complementary role.

Seabrook picked up two assists on the power play in 24:41 of ice time in Tuesday's win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Another strong showing from Seabrook, who scored his sixth goal of the season Sunday against Carolina. The 30-year-old continues to log heavy minutes for the Blackhawks and now has 24 points in 38 games. Given his role on the first power-play unit and strong offensive instincts, the workhorse should be in your lineup every game.

Seabrook has no goals and two assists over his last 12 games as he continues to play alongside Niklas Hjalmarsson on the Hawks' second defensive pairing.
EDGE Analysis
Although Seabrook would seem to be the more offensively oriented of the two and consistently plays big power-play minutes, Hjalmarsson's actually outproduced him noticeably in that span (five points) despite having nearly no power-play time to speak of. The Blackhawks have been doing a lot of winning lately, so Seabrook's lack of recent offensive contributions is flying a bit under the radar. He's still on pace for his best NHL season, but 11 of the 21 points Seabrook has racked up this year came in the 10 games that Duncan Keith spent on the shelf.
