Orlov assisted on the game-winning goal in overtime and finished with two shots on net and a plus-2 rating against Buffalo on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

The 25-year-old defenseman is a low-end fantasy asset because he doesn't log big minutes and is clearly behind John Carlson and Matt Niskanen in the offensive pecking order. Orlov should be left to deep seasonal leagues and is likely best utilized as a low-priced flier in daily contests when Washington lands in a favorable matchup.
