EDGE Analysis

Severson helped the Blue Jackets stretch their lead with the second of three goals for the team in the third period. The defenseman had been held off the scoresheet over the previous three contests. For the season, he's been productive in a top-four role with eight points, 33 shots on net, 25 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating across 16 games. He's topped the 40-point mark just once in his career, but that's the pace he's on so far.

EDGE Analysis

Severson's scored twice over the last three games, though those tallies are his only points in seven contests. The 30-year-old defenseman got the Blue Jackets on the board early in the second period, but after the Capitals' five-goal opening frame, it was too late to make an impact.

The 30-year-old defenseman has also been positive in plus-minus rating in three of those games, with a plus-4 rating overall.

This was Severson's second assist in as many games, and he's added four shots on net, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating while playing on the second pairing.

In 2023-24, he had just 28 points over 67 contests in his first year with the Blue Jackets, his lowest output in a full-length season since 2017-18. He can be a useful depth defenseman in fantasy with better offense, but his totals in hits and blocked shots are fairly modest, leaving him with little upside for category coverage.
