Slavin recorded an assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin earned the secondary helper on an Andrei Svechnikov goal in the second period. The 26-year-old Slavin has just two helpers through eight games in April. The blueliner has taken a step back on offense with 12 points in 39 outings this year. He's added a plus-11 rating, 73 shots on net and 64 blocked shots.

Slavin snapped a seven-game pointless slump with an assist in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Now with just 11 points in 36 games this season, Slavin has never been an offensively-minded blueliner, but we were expecting more from him than this. The 26-year-old rearguard recorded a career-best 36 points in 68 games last season, but will be lucky to hit the 20-point mark this year. Bench him immediately if you haven't done so already.

Slavin posted an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin was credited with the secondary helper on Sebastian Aho's empty-netter in the third period. The 26-year-old Slavin has six points, 31 shots on net, 30 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 19 contests. He's reached the 30-point mark in each of the last four seasons, but he'll have to pick up the pace significantly to do so in a shortened 2020-21 campaign.

Slavin scored his first goal of the season and added an assist in Friday's 5-3 win over Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

His goal was an empty-netter fired from deep in his own zone, but they all count. Slavin has had a sluggish offensive start to the season, putting his streak of four straight 30-point campaigns in a little jeopardy, but he's now up to five points through 12 games.

Slavin notched an assist, four blocked shots and two hits in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin provided the secondary helper on a Nino Niederreiter goal in the second period. The 26-year-old Slavin has managed two assists, 11 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through five contests. Expect the defenseman to carry more weight in fantasy formats that reward blocks, as his offense will likely remain fairly modest.

Slavin (undisclosed) had two hits and one block in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout win over Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin logged a team-leading 24:54 of ice time after missing the previous three games due to the league's COVID-19 protocols. The 26-year-old had four giveaways, including one late in the first period that led directly to a Patrick Kane goal that tied things up at 2-2. Slavin has one assist and is plus-4 through four games this season.

As expected, Slavin (undisclosed) will return to the lineup Tuesday against Chicago, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin has missed the Hurricanes' last three games due to the NHL's COVID-19 protocols, but he'll return to his usual top-pairing role Tuesday. The 26-year-old American has picked up one helper through three contests this campaign.

Slavin (undisclosed) won't play in Sunday's game against the Stars, Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Saturday, but he'll need a bit more time to ramp up his conditioning. Head coach Rod Brind'Amour is optimistic that the 26-year-old defenseman will be ready for Tuesday's road game against the Blackhawks.

Although he's cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols, Slavin isn't expected to be in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin was on the ice for Saturday's morning skate, but that represented the first time he's hit the ice since being placed on the league's COVID-19 protocols list Jan. 19, so he'll likely need to get a practice or two in before rejoining the lineup. That could, however, happen as soon as Sunday in a rematch with Dallas.

According to Michael Smith of the Hurricanes' official site, Slavin is on the ice for Saturday's morning skate, indicating he's cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols.

EDGE Analysis

Slavin missed Thursday's game against Tampa Bay due to the NHL's COVID-19 protocols, but he's on track to return to a top-pairing role for Saturday's matchup with Dallas. The 26-year-old American has picked up one helper while posting a plus-3 rating through three games this campaign.
