Oleksiak notched an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Oleksiak found Andrew Cogliano for the opening goal in the first period. The defenseman had gone 16 games without a point entering Saturday. Oleksiak now has five helpers, 30 shots on goal, 47 hits and 19 PIM in 31 contests this season. He's mostly a physical and defensive presence on the ice.

Oleksiak has no points, 25 hits and 14 shots on goal through 12 November games.
EDGE Analysis
The big defenseman had four helpers in October, but he hasn't followed the Stars' recent team-wide uptick in offense. In addition to his four assists, Oleksiak has 25 shots, 40 hits and 13 PIM in 26 appearances this season.

Oleksiak has gone scoreless in five November games.
EDGE Analysis
The six-foot-seven defenseman has four assists in 19 games overall this year, but none since the calendar flipped. Oleksiak has added 23 hits, 17 blocked shots and 11 PIM, but he's a defense-first type of player. His single-season best in points is 17, set in 2017-18.

Oleksiak managed an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Oleksiak dished to his defense partner Miro Heiskanen, who then set up Alexander Radulov's second goal of the game. The assists gives Oleksiak four assists in 14 appearances this year. While not a threat to produce much offense, the 26-year-old will hold down a bottom-four role on the blue line for his reliable defense.

Oleksiak recorded an assist in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Oleksiak started the year pretty well, but the assist Thursday snapped a seven-game point drought. The 26-year-old defenseman is hardly known for offense, but his three assists in 12 outings gives him a chance to match the 12 points he had in 57 contests last year.

Oleksiak generated a helper, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
That's assists in two consecutive games for Oleksiak. The 26-year-old blueliner is not a common source for offense, and he's averaging only 13:17 per game through the Stars' first four contests. Don't expect the Big Rig to continue churning out much offense.

Oleksiak picked up an assist in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
The first point of the year for the 26-year-old defender came on Tyler Seguin's first-period goal. Oleksiak hasn't lived up to the hype from being a first-round pick in 2014, with his career-best in points coming in 2017-18 when he had 17 in 68 games between the Stars and the Penguins. That season also represents a high-water mark for the blueliner in games played and hits (174).

Oleksiak (lower body) is listed on Dallas' training camp roster.
EDGE Analysis
Oleksiak missed the final seven games of the Stars' 2018-19 postseason run due to a lower-body injury, but it was never believed to be anything that would impact his readiness for training camp. The 26-year-old will be competing for a spot on Dallas' bottom pairing and has only totaled 29 points in 125 games over the past two campaigns, so he won't be a useful fantasy option in 2019-20.

Oleksiak (lower body) was unable to rejoin the lineup prior to the Stars being eliminated from the playoffs.
EDGE Analysis
Oleksiak's lower-body injury isn't anything that should hinder his offseason program, so he should be fully healthy well ahead of next campaign's training camp. Either way, his health is likely of little concern to fantasy owners, as he's only totaled 29 points in 125 games over the past two seasons.

Oleksiak (lower body) won't make the trip to St. Louis for Tuesday's Game 7, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Oleksiak will miss his seventh straight outing and the entirety of the club's second-round series against the Blues. Even when healthy, the towering blueliner was facing the potential of serving as a healthy scratch in favor of Taylor Fedun. Since rejoining Dallas via trade from Pittsburgh, the 25-year-old averaged a meager 12:34 of ice time in 25 outings and won't offer much in terms of fantasy value if he does slot back into the lineup at any point.
