Shattenkirk recorded an assist in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Maple Leafs in Game 6.
EDGE Analysis
Shattenkirk was scratched for Game 5 on Tuesday, but he checked back in for Matt Grzelcyk in this contest. The helper was Shattenkirk's first point in the postseason, to go with three shots on net, six hits and two blocked shots over five appearances. The 35-year-old blueliner is stuck on the third pairing, so he shouldn't be counted on to make contributions on offense.

Shattenkirk scored a goal in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Shattenkirk put the Bruins ahead with his second-period tally. The defenseman's playing time has been sparse lately -- he's suited up in just five of the team's last 13 contests, though he has four points in that span. The 35-year-old is up to six goals, 23 points, 75 shots on net, 84 blocked shots, 52 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 59 appearances. The Bruins will likely continue to rotate Parker Wotherspoon, Andrew Peeke and Shattenkirk through the third pairing to keep everyone fresh heading into the playoffs.

Shattenkirk notched three assists, one on the power play, in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
A healthy scratch for the last two games as the Bruins take a longer look at Andrew Peeke, Shattenkirk hasn't scored a goal since Jan. 2 -- a 25-game drought -- but he's been generous with helpers of late and has eight in his last nine contests. The 35-year-old blueliner also has 12 shots on net, 13 hits, 16 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating during that time.

Shattenkirk collected two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran blueliner helped set up Jesper Boqvist in the first period before feeding Mason Lohrei for a one-timer late in the third period for the game-winner. Shattenkirk has four points, all assists, in his last five games, but on the season the 35-year-old has only five goals and 17 points through 48 contests.

Shattenkirk notched an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Shattenkirk has not played more than two games in a row since mid-January. The 35-year-old set up David Pastrnak's first of two goals in Monday's game. Through 47 outings, Shattenkirk has 15 points, 63 shots on net, 65 blocked shots, 37 hits and a minus-3 rating. With Derek Forbort (coach's decision) likely back in the fold Thursday versus the Golden Knights, Shattenkirk will again find himself as a rotational option on the third pairing.

Shattenkirk (illness) will play Tuesday versus Tampa Bay, per Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald.
EDGE Analysis
Shattenkirk sat out two games as a healthy scratch prior to missing Monday's practice with an illness. He will replace Parker Wotherspoon in the lineup versus the Lightning. Shattenkirk has five goals, 13 points, 61 shots on net and 54 blocked shots over 42 outings this campaign.

Shattenkirk missed Monday's practice due to an illness, Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shattenkirk has been a healthy scratch for Boston's last two games, so even if he's feeling well enough to play, he could be watching Tuesday's game against Tampa Bay from the press box. The 35-year-old has collected 13 points through 42 contests this season.

Shattenkirk scored twice Saturday in a 5-2 win over New Jersey.
EDGE Analysis
Shattenkirk made it 4-2 late in the second period with his 100th NHL goal, and he scored his second late in the third on the power play. His four goals in 28 games this season has already matched his goal total over 75 games with Anaheim last campaign. The 34-year-old Shattenkirk has a lot of mileage (919 games) in his game, but he can still deliver secondary scoring on the power play. Half of his 10 points this season have come with the man advantage.

Shattenkirk produced two power-play assists in Friday's 5-4 shootout win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
With Charlie McAvoy (upper body) sidelined, Shattenkirk has taken over point duties on the Bruins' top power-play unit and cashed in, helping to set up tallies by David Pastrnak in the second period and James van Riemsdyk in the third. Shattenkirk also has a goal with the man advantage in the three games McAvoy has missed so far, making him an enticing short-term fantasy option, but on the season the veteran blueliner has just two goals and eight points in 23 contests. Once McAvoy is healthy, Shattenkirk will return to being waiver-wire fodder in most formats.

Shattenkirk supplied a power-play goal in a 5-3 win over Arizona on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Shattenkirk's marker came early in the second period to put Boston up 3-0. It was his second goal and sixth point in 21 games this season. Shattenkirk has been used sparingly this campaign, averaging just 16:37 of ice time going into Saturday's action. The modest role has limited his fantasy value, though he's at least maintaining a steady presence on Boston's second power-play unit.
