Stenlund recorded an assist in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Stenlund set up Maveric Lamoureux's first career goal at 4:10 of the second period. This was Stenlund's first helper and second point for Utah, and he's added 13 shots on net, 13 hits, 10 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 11 appearances. The 28-year-old center is filling a bottom-six role, and with Nick Bjugstad back after a season-opening injury, Stenlund's ice time is likely to remain fairly low.

Stenlund scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 6-5 overtime win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
The goal was Stenlund's first point in three games with Utah. The center has added three shots on net, three blocked shots and two hits. He was signed to a two-year deal in July to fill a fourth-line role, though he's averaged 16:05 of ice time so far. Stenlund is unlikely to stand out on offense, but he could be a help in particularly deep fantasy formats that count hits, PIM and/or shorthanded points.

Stenlund signed a two-year, $4 million contract with Utah on Monday, per Darren Dreger of TSN.
EDGE Analysis
Stenlund contributed 11 goals, 15 points, 62 PIM, 81 shots on net and 83 hits in 81 regular-season outings with Florida in 2023-24. The 27-year-old forward will likely occupy a bottom-six role with Utah.

Stenlund logged an assist in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
Stenlund set up Evan Rodrigues' third-period insurance tally. The helper was Stenlund's first point in five playoff outings and just his second point in his last 22 contests overall. The 27-year-old center had 15 points in 81 regular-season appearances, but just four of those points came after the All-Star break. He should continue to see bottom-six minutes, at least until Sam Bennett (upper body) is able to return.

Stenlund (illness) participated in practice Monday, David Dwork of The Hockey News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stenlund will probably return to a bottom-six role against Buffalo on Tuesday after sitting out Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over Washington. If that ends up being the case, Steven Lorentz is likely to be a healthy scratch. Stenlund has nine goals, 13 points, 46 PIM and 57 hits across 57 appearances this season.

EDGE Analysis
With Stenlund and Matthew Tkachuk (undisclosed) unavailable to play, William Lockwood and Steven Lorentz will suit up versus the Capitals. The 27-year-old Stenlund has nine goals, 13 points, 60 shots on net and 57 hits in 57 outings this campaign.

Per Katie Engleson of Bally Sports Florida, Stenlund (illness) didn't participate in morning practice and will be a game-time decision versus Washington on Saturday, according to coach Paul Maurice.
EDGE Analysis
Stenlund has earned new personal bests this season with nine goals and 13 points through 57 games. If Stenlund sits out Saturday's contest, Steven Lorentz will probably play on the fourth line.

Stenlund brushed twine in Saturday's 8-4 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Stenlund delivered a nasty backhand off a faceoff for his seventh goal of the season. This is a career-high mark for the Swede, who is in his sixth year at hockey's highest level. A fourth-line contributor, Stenlund can become an unrestricted free agent in the summer. He's added two assists, 24 blocked shots and 28 hits while appearing in every contest (so far) in 2023-24.

Stenlund produced the game-winning goal along with two assists in Monday's 5-3 win over Edmonton.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old picked up a loose puck in the Oilers zone midway through the second period and quickly flipped it toward the net, and Calvin Pickard couldn't get back in position in time. It's the first multi-point performance of the season for Stenlund, while the helpers were also his first of 2023-24. The bottom-six center is already nearing career-scoring highs with five goals and seven points through his first 18 games as a Panther.

Stenlund scored a goal in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Stenlund's tally at 11:09 of the third period stood as the game-winner. The 27-year-old has scored twice over his last three contests, the second time he's had such a stretch this season. He's at four goals, no assists, 16 shots on net, 12 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 15 appearances. While he doesn't have a lot of offense, Stenlund has maintained a steady spot in the Panthers' lineup on the fourth line.
