DeMelo contributed two assists in Monday's 5-2 win over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

DeMelo assisted on the opening tally by Artem Anisimov in the first period. DeMelo also assisted Anthony Duclair on his empty-net goal in the final second of the game. The blueliner has four assists in his last three games after a 17-game point drought. DeMelo also took four PIM, dished two hits and fired two shots on goal in Monday's game. In 2019-20, the 26-year-old has six helpers, 21 PIM and 56 hits in 31 appearances.

DeMelo notched an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

DeMelo hadn't etched his name on the scoresheet since a two-assist performance versus the Sharks on Oct. 27. He added two hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Wednesday's contest. The 26-year-old has only three helpers this season, with 54 hits and 40 blocks rounding out the blueliner's unspectacular stat line.

DeMelo hasn't posted a point in his last 14 games despite skating 19 minutes or more in all but one of those contests.

EDGE Analysis

DeMelo might be valuable to the Senators, but his value doesn't carry over to fantasy, where he doesn't really produce anywhere but hits and blocked shots.

DeMelo posted a pair of assists, five blocked shots and two hits in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Skating a season-high 21:56 in the contest, DeMelo set up goals by Brady Tkachuk and Anthony Duclair for his first two points of the year. DeMelo has added 25 hits and 16 blocked shots in 11 appearances. The defenseman posted a career-high 22 points, 121 hits and 130 blocks in 77 games last year.

DeMelo's lone contribution in Saturday's 4-2 win over Tampa Bay was a first-period fight against Yanni Gourde.

EDGE Analysis

DeMelo has operated as more of a defensive-focused blue liner so far, which is helpful to the Senators but not so much for fantasy owners. Don't expect much to change over the course of the season, and unless you need major plus-minus help, DeMelo isn't likely to be much use to your squad.

DeMelo's fourth goal was all the Senators could muster in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

DeMelo has picked up a goal and four assists in his last three games, as well as 10 blocked shots in that span. His tally Thursday gives him a second consecutive 20-point season, reaching the mark in 69 contests.

DeMelo exploded for three assists and five blocked shots in Wednesday's 7-4 loss to the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

He recently weathered a five-game pointless stretch, but DeMelo now has four helpers over his last two games. He's up to 19 points (three goals, 16 assists) in 68 games in his first year in Ottawa, just one point shy of his career high from last season with the Sharks. Potential fantasy owners can take note of his 105 hits and 112 blocks this season as added value in formats that score those categories.

DeMelo recorded a power-play assist -- his 12th helper of the season -- in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

It was DeMelo's first point in 15 games, and he now has 15 points in 61 games this season. The Sens' blueliner also logged a season-high 4:33 of power-play time in the win.

DeMelo registered an assist in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Anaheim.

EDGE Analysis

DeMelo is on a three-game point steak (all assists) and has four helpers in his last five outings. The defenseman still hasn't scored a goal since Dec. 4, a stretch of 11 contests, but the fact that he is chipping in offensively makes him a decent mid-range fantasy option.

DeMelo (upper body) will return Friday evening against the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

DeMelo has officially been removed from injured reserve, per the NHL's official media site. The former Shark has been a pleasant surprise with three goals and five assists to complement a plus-9 rating that leads all Ottawa blueliners.
