Cole scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, blocked two shots, logged two PIM and went plus-5 in Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Cole is rarely a big contributor on offense, but he was right in the middle of a breakout performance for the Mammoth. He set up Dylan Guenther on the team's second goal before scoring the third one himself. Through 28 appearances, Cole is at two goals, 11 points, 23 shots on net, 31 hits, 59 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a plus-11 rating. He's been a bottom-four fixture in the lineup, but he's on track to top the 20-point mark for the first time since 2019-20.

Cole recorded two assists, one hit and a plus-1 rating during his 16:32 of ice time in Sunday's 4-2 loss

EDGE Analysis

Cole picked up the lone assist on each of the Mammoth's two goals during Sunday's game. That brings his total up to six points (one goal, five assists) on the season through 12 games, putting him on pace for 41 points through a full 82-game slate. His career high for points is 26, a mark the 36-year-old has reached twice in his lengthy career. It might be tough to keep up the 41-point pace given his usage but something around the 20-point plateau feels like a realistic goal to shoot at for the veteran.

Cole scored a goal, fired two shots on net, blocked two shots and dished out two hits in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Cole opened the floodgates for the Mammoth with a goal just beyond the first three minutes of the game. Overall, the 36-year-old blueliner has three points, a plus-nine rating, 16 blocks and 11 hits through eight games this season. With the Mammoth taking a step forward in the early stages of this season, Cole is among those contributing to their success. He provides solid category coverage from a fantasy perspective and saw 22 minutes of ice time Thursday, which was the third most among defenseman. He has some fantasy appeal in deep leagues and is a name to keep an eye on if he can string together a few more consecutive outings with a point.

Cole logged an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Cole has filled a bottom-four role to start 2025-26. The helper was his first point in five games. The 36-year-old blueliner still brings a physical game -- he's added seven hits, nine blocked shots, four PIM and a plus-4 rating so far this season. Cole hasn't reached the 20-point mark since 2019-20 with the Avalanche, so don't expect frequent scoring contributions from him.

EDGE Analysis

Cole has contributed four assists, a plus-7 rating, 33 hits, 54 blocked shots and 26 PIM over 21 contests since the start of March. He's hardly a consistent presence on the scoresheet, but his physical play is helpful in deep leagues with an emphasis on non-scoring categories. For the season, Cole has 17 points, 77 PIM, 66 shots, 106 hits and 209 blocks across 81 appearances as a steady top-four defenseman in Utah's lineup.

EDGE Analysis

Cole has three helpers, a plus-5 rating, 22 hits and 27 blocked shots over his last 11 outings. The 36-year-old defenseman continues to play his role effectively for Utah, though it's not one that leads to accolades or fantasy interest in most cases. He's up to 16 points, 62 shots on net, 69 PIM, 98 hits, 191 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 75 appearances this season.

Cole logged an assist and three blocked shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Cole snapped a 20-game point drought when he set up Jack McBain's first-period tally. The 36-year-old Cole signed a one-year, $3 million contract last Wednesday to stay with Utah in 2025-26, and while he's not a big scorer, he is valued for his defensive work. This season, he's up to 14 points, 56 shots on net, 77 hits, 167 blocked shots, 55 PIM and a minus-7 rating over 65 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Cole will stop his journeyman ways for a year, sticking with Utah for a second season. Per Chris Johnston of The Athletic, Cole will make $3 million for the 2025-26 campaign. He's been a key part of Utah's defensive structure, which has been riddled by injuries for much of the campaign. Cole has 13 points, 73 hits, 160 blocked shots, 53 PIM and a minus-8 rating over 61 appearances in his first year with the club. He's not a strong fantasy player, but Cole can have some value in banger leagues.

Cole has gone 14 games without a point dating back to Jan. 18.

EDGE Analysis

The 36-year-old defenseman has held Utah's blue line together at times this season, but with Sean Durzi now healthy, Cole's usage may diminish. Even when the team was thin, Cole functioned more as a shutdown defenseman than a scorer. He's been pretty good in his role with 13 points, 50 shots on net, 51 PIM, 71 hits and 153 blocked shots over 58 appearances this season, but his fantasy utility is limited to deep formats that reward his physical play.

Cole notched an assist and three blocked shots in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

Cole had four assists over six outings from Dec. 23 to Jan. 4, but he had been held off the scoresheet in the four subsequent contests.

Cole is up to 13 points, 44 shots on net, 41 PIM, 52 hits, 127 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 44 appearances in a top-four role this season.
