Stanley and Luke Schenn were traded to the Sabres from the Jets on Thursday in exchange for Isak Rosen, Jacob Bryson, a second-round pick and a fourth-round pick, Murat Ates of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley picked a good season to have a career year, collecting 21 points (nine goals, 12 assists) with 74 shots on net, 96 hits, 69 blocked shots and 99 PIM over 59 appearances. The 27-year-old is a pending unrestricted free agent. With the Sabres, he'll likely be limited to a bottom-four role and no power-play time, as Rasmus Dahlin, Bowen Byram and Owen Power already command big minutes in prime situations. That means Stanley's offense will take a hit, though he could do more with less ice time since he's likely to get more favorable matchups.

Stanley recorded two assists, two shots on goal and two PIM in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley is getting top-pairing minutes and power-play time in the absence of Josh Morrissey (upper body) and Neal Pionk (undisclosed). The 27-year-old Stanley has enjoyed a career year with 20 points in 57 appearances, and his first helper Friday was the first power-play point of his career. He's added 94 hits, 68 blocked shots, 99 PIM, 66 shots on net and a minus-4 rating. Stanley's a pending unrestricted free agent this summer, so the Jets may offload him to a contender looking to bulk up its blue line prior to next Friday's trade deadline.

Stanley scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Monday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley scored at 18:17 of the third period to force overtime. He picked up two assists over eight games between his most recent goals. The 27-year-old blueliner has a career-high nine goals and 18 points, and he's added 58 shots on net, 97 PIM, 89 hits and 67 blocked shots over 54 outings. He's set for unrestricted free agency this summer, so it's possible he'll be traded to a contender, which would help the Jets with a likely retool.

Stanley scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley continues defy expectations this season. He's been a little more selectively physical lately -- he has four instances of recording zero hits and blocked shots in a game, and all of them have come in his last 14 contests. Overall, he's at eight goals, a career-high 15 points, 48 shots on net, 73 hits, 50 blocked shots, 91 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 45 appearances, production good enough for consideration in deep fantasy formats.

Stanley received a one-game suspension from the NHL Department of Player Safety on Sunday for roughing Ottawa's Brady Tkachuk on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley won't be available for Tuesday's matchup against Vegas due to the suspension, but he will be eligible to return against Edmonton on Thursday. He has generated seven goals, 13 points, 44 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 67 hits and 82 PIM across 40 appearances this season. Haydn Fleury or Luke Schenn will replace Stanley in Tuesday's lineup against the Golden Knights.

Stanley has a hearing with the Department of Player Safety on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley and Brady Tkachuk were involved in an altercation during the second period of Saturday's game that resulted in Stanley picking up a double-minor and Tkachuk receving a 10-minute misconduct penalty. In that scrum, the Jets defenseman punched Tkachuk, and that is likely the incident that could draw supplemental discipline from the league. A suspension could be on the way for the 27-year-old Stanley, who has seven goals and six assists in 40 games this year.

Stanley scored a goal in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley broke the shutout bid midway through the third period with his seventh goal of the season. While he has yet to be a consistent playmaker this season, he is tied for fourth on the Jets in goals, which leads all of the team's defensemen. With four goals in his last 10 games, he has a legitimate chance to reach the double-digit goal mark for the first time in his six-year career. The 27-year-old blueliner is worth a look in category-based fantasy leagues with 13 points, 43 shots on net, 67 hits and 43 blocks through 38 games this year.

Stanley scored a goal and put four shots on net in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley put the Jets in the lead Monday with his goal near the end of the second period. The 27-year-old defenseman is having a career year offensively with six goals, which is five more than his previous career high. He has scored half of his goals this year over his last four games and totaled a season high of four shots in Monday's OT win. His change in confidence to start firing the puck is evident, giving him the potential for a double-digit goal total by the end of the campaign. While his goal-scoring pace will likely cool down at some point, he is a solid streaming option in most standard formats and could hold his own in deep leagues for the rest of the season with 12 points, 35 shots on goal, 54 hits and 40 blocks through 32 games.

Stanley scored a goal, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley has two goals over his last three games. He's up to five tallies this season, matching his combined total from his first five NHL campaigns. The big defenseman has added six helpers, 31 shots on net, 54 hits, 55 PIM, 40 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 31 appearances. Stanley's newfound offense may not last in the long run, but combined with his physical play, it makes him worth consideration in deep fantasy formats.

Stanley scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Stanley ended a nine-game point drought with his third-period tally. He got the Jets within a goal, but they were unable to pull even. Stanley has found another level on offense this year with four goals and 10 points through 29 appearances after putting 14 points in 63 regular-season outings last year. He's added 30 shots on net, 52 hits, 37 blocked shots, 55 PIM and a plus-2 rating this season despite primarily working on the third pairing.
