Provorov (upper body) will be a game-time decision Sunday against Winnipeg, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

After leaving Friday's contest with an upper-body injury, Provorov will "test things out" ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Jets. If Provorov ultimately can't go, Jack Johnson would likely enter the lineup.

Provorov (upper body) won't return to Friday's game versus the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

He was injured early in the second period. Provorov had one assist in 8:07 of ice time prior to sustaining the injury. He can be considered day-to-day heading into Sunday's game versus the Jets. If Provorov can't play, Jack Johnson will likely enter the lineup.

Provorov scored a goal on three shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Provorov's first-period tally quickly tied the game at 1-1 after Connor Bedard opened the scoring with a power-play goal. This marks the first time Provorov has gotten on the scoresheet in consecutive contests all year -- he had an assist Friday versus the Flames. The defenseman is up to two goals, six helpers, 33 shots on net, 32 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 23 appearances in a top-four role.

Provorov notched an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Provorov has a goal and three assists over his last 10 outings. It's nothing flashy, but he's offering decent depth offense from the blue line while also piling up blocked shots with 14 in that span. The 27-year-old defenseman has a total of seven points, 30 shots on net, 31 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 22 contests in a second-pairing role this season. Provorov is a free agent after this season, so could be dealt to a contender -- and likely a smaller role -- before the trade deadline.

Provorov notched an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Friday's 6-2 win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Provorov is up to two points through seven outings in November. The 27-year-old defenseman has totaled five points, 21 shots on net, 24 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-3 rating over 16 appearances this season. While he's shown some potential on offense, Provorov is likely only an option for fantasy managers in deeper formats.

Provorov scored a power-play goal and blocked four shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Provorov pulled the Blue Jackets within a goal just after Trevor Moore tallied shorthanded to give the Kings a 3-1 lead early in the third period. Power-play production isn't a big part of Provorov's profile, but he has been a regular part of the second unit throughout 2024-25. He's up to four points, 17 shots on net, 21 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 13 contests this season.

Provorov logged an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Wednesday's 2-0 win over the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Provorov is up to three helpers through nine outings this season. The 27-year-old defenseman continues to play in a top-four role with time on the second power-play unit. He has added 11 shots on net, 13 blocked shots, four hits, four PIM and a plus-5 rating. Provorov doesn't hit as much as he did earlier in his career, and his defense can falter at times, but he's still likely to maintain a prominent role throughout 2024-25.

Provorov notched an assist, four shots on goal, two blocked shots, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

Provorov fills more of a shutdown role in the Blue Jackets' top four, so it's unlikely he'll ever be reliable on offense. The helper was his first point through four contests this season, to go with six shots on net, six blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating. Over his first eight NHL campaigns, he's topped 30 points on five occasions while reaching the 100-hit mark three times and never posting fewer than 106 blocked shots, so he has some fantasy value in formats that reward non-scoring production.

Provorov secured the victory, scoring his fifth goal of the season late in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Rangers.

EDGE Analysis

The goal was just Provorov's fifth of the year. The 27-year-old defender isn't having a career-best campaign by any stretch, but five goals and 26 points through 57 games is his best offensive production rate since the 2019-20 season. However, he's taking shots at the lowest rate of his career and has a minus-12 rating.

Provorov notched an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Provorov required X-rays after Tuesday's game versus the Senators, but he was able to shake off the injury with three days off between games. The defenseman also snapped his nine-game point drought Saturday with a helper on Boone Jenner's game-winning goal late in the third period. Provorov is up to 24 points, 72 shots on net, 99 blocked shots, 44 hits and a minus-13 rating through 53 outings in his first year with the Blue Jackets. His offense is in the same range as most other seasons, though his physicality has dropped in 2023-24.
