Slavin scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin's defense was on display for the world to see during his time with Team USA during the 4 Nations Face-Off. The 30-year-old didn't have a point during the tournament, but offense has never been his calling card. Even with that being the case, his NHL play has been pretty good lately -- he has four goals and 11 points over 20 outings since the start of January. For the season, he's at 21 points, 75 shots on net, 98 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating through 57 appearances. Fantasy managers don't need to buy the hype from talking heads; Slavin is an excellent on-ice player, but he's not a one-size-fits-all option in the virtual game. Roster him for blocks, and consider him if you're in a deeper format, but remember that a 30-point pace is typically the expectation.

With his current performance, he can help fantasy managers who need a modest boost in points or blocks.

EDGE Analysis
Slavin has earned five points over nine outings in January, matching November as his most productive month of the season so far. The 30-year-old defenseman is a little behind his usual pace with 15 points through 46 appearances, which would put him at risk of missing the 30-point mark for the second time in three seasons. He's added 56 shots on net, 73 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating in his usual top-pairing role.

Slavin scored the game-winning goal and added an assist in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
After helping to set up Brent Burns for a first-period tally, Slavin gave the Hurricanes a 2-1 lead on a wild play that saw Jesperi Kotkaniemi crash into Sergei Bobrovsky and then get pinned to the ice in the crease by Matthew Tkachuk, only for a shot to carom off Kotkaniemi's skate and bounce straight to Slavin for the rebound. It was Slavin's first multi-point performance since Nov. 11, and it equaled his production for the entire month of December, when the veteran blueliner managed only two assists in 13 contests.

Slavin notched an assist and four shots on goal in Monday's 6-4 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin ended a six-game slump when he helped out on Andrei Svechnikov's empty-netter. The Hurricanes haven't gotten a lot of offense out of their top pairing (Slavin and Brent Burns), but Slavin's been the more productive of the two with eight points over 21 outings. He's added 25 shots on net, 33 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating as a high-end shutdown defender.

Slavin recorded two assists in Monday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin assisted on his team's fourth and fifth goals, giving him six helpers on the year and his first multi-point effort of the campaign. He has seven points in 14 games this season, and while the season is still young, he's on pace to come close to his career best of 42 points (four goals, 38 assists) from 2021-22 -- as long as he stays healthy throughout the campaign.
