Slavin collected two assists in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old blueliner helped set up a Seth Jarvis tally late in the first period that proved to be the game-winner, before getting credited with an assist on Andrei Svechnikov's fluky empty-netter in the third. Slavin was ice cold coming out of the All-Star break, managing only three assists in 15 games, but he's now matched that output over the last three contests. He hasn't found the back of the net since Christmas however, with his goal drought now standing at 32 games.

Slavin registered an assist in a 5-2 victory over Colorado on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin remains mired in a 16-game goal drought during which he has registered a mere 16 shots while chipping in two helpers. The blueliner once again is unlikely to reach the 40-point threshold, a mark he hit back in 2021-22, in part due to his lack of power-play opportunities.

Slavin registered a goal on four shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin continues to see healthy minutes (21:11 TOI) on the Canes' top defensive pairing alongside Brent Burns. He's up to 19 points in 34 games, which puts him on pace to surpass his previous high of 42 points. Slavin makes for a good waiver-wire pickup for managers in search of help on the blue line.

Slavin managed an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin has an assist in three straight games, and he's collected six helpers over his last six outings. The 29-year-old defenseman helped out on Jordan Martinook's first goal of the campaign at 7:23 of the second period. Slavin had a rough stretch in early November, but he's putting together a strong season with 17 points, 62 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating through 27 appearances.

Slavin logged an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin has recorded five assists over his last five games. He took a shot off a faceoff win by Jack Drury, and Stefan Noesen tipped it in at 2:10 of the first period for the opening goal. Slavin is up to 16 points, 60 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating through 26 contests. One of the top defensive defensemen in the league, the 29-year-old is also on a pace that could allow him to challenge his career high of 42 points from the 2021-22 campaign.

Slavin notched an assist, six shots on goal and four hits in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin set up Jordan Staal's third-period tally to break up the shutout bid. The helper was Slavin's fourth over the last four contests, and he's logged eight assists and a plus-7 rating across his last 11 games. It's not quite the heater he had at the start of the campaign, but the 29-year-old remains a steady top-four option for Carolina. He has 15 points, 58 shots on net, 38 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating through 25 appearances overall.

Slavin recorded one shot on goal to go along with two blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin has had himself a nice six-game stretch, recording three assists and five shots on goal. The 29-year-old is playing heavy minutes -- he's averaging 21:14 of ice time over the last six contests. He should continue to skate on the first pairing alongside Brent Burns.

Slavin registered an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin stormed out of the gate with three goals and four assists through six October contests, but the subsequent eight-game stretch saw the top-pairing defenseman turn in nothing but box-score goose eggs for goals and assists. Oddly enough, only one of his eight points have taken place on home ice, and that was his shorthanded tally to cap off an Opening Night win against the Senators.

Slavin scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist, blocked three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
The Denver native produced a big game in his hometown, albeit in a losing effort for the visiting Hurricanes. Slavin's defensive prowess is well-documented, but he's opened this season with three goals and four assists over six contests. The 29-year-old has added 16 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating, showing consistent success defensively despite the Hurricanes giving up 30 goals through their first six games of the season. His career high in points is 42 in 79 outings during the 2021-22 campaign, so his scoring will likely dip eventually.

Slavin registered two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Slavin earned his first multi-point effort of the season. He's been hot on offense with two shorthanded goals and three even-strength assists over five contests. The steady defenseman has also produced 10 blocked shots, 12 shots on goal and a plus-4 rating from his top-pairing role. The offense will eventually slow down, but he should be a reliable producer in the defensive metrics.
