Oleksiak notched an assist, two blocked shots and two PIM in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Canucks.

EDGE Analysis

Oleksiak has just two assists over his last 19 contests. The 32-year-old defenseman has served in a shutdown role in 2024-25, and it's led to even less offense than usual. He has seven points, 32 shots on net, 81 blocked shots, 30 hits and a minus-3 rating through 37 outings overall. Oleksiak is useful for blocks but is unlikely to add consistent scoring.

EDGE Analysis

Oleksiak broke a 10-game slump with a secondary helper on Yanni Gourde's empty-netter. The 31-year-old Oleksiak is usually good for a couple of short bursts of offense per year, but he hasn't even been able to do that in 2024-25. He's at two goals, six points, 28 shots on net, 26 hits, 62 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 29 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Oleksiak and Brandon Montour have formed a strong second pairing for the Kraken early in the campaign. Tuesday's performance marked Oleksiak's first offensive contributions, but he's been as steady as ever with his physical play, adding 10 hits, nine blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over four contests. In deeper formats that reward the rough stuff, Oleksiak is an option as a depth defenseman, but his scoring ceiling is roughly 20 points.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Oleksiak has a helper in each of the last three games, his longest streak of the season. The 31-year-old defenseman helped out on Tye Kartye's game-winning tally in the third period. Oleksiak is up to 13 points, 98 shots on net, 154 blocked shots, 104 hits, 35 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 72 outings. He can help in fantasy formats that reward physicality, but it's unwise to expect him to keep up his newfound production through the end of the season.

While his offense is lower than it's been in four years, he's still seeing second-pairing minutes as a shutdown defender.
