Weegar dished out a pair of helpers -- one on the power play -- to go with six shots, four blocked shots and three hits in Thursday's 7-4 win over Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar's stat-stuffing performance was overshadowed by the likes of Jonathan Huberdeau (one goal, four assists) and Aaron Ekblad (two goals, one assist), but fantasy managers continue to benefit from Weegar's well-rounded game in the vast majority of formats. The 27-year-old blueliner is still in search of his first goal this season, but Weegar's up to 14 assists through 23 games, including five during his current four-game point streak.

Weegar produced an assist in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar has been fantastic based on four assists and a plus-5 rating over the last five games. Florida's seventh-round pick from 2013 isn't afraid to do the dirty work, either, as Weegar has committed to 55 hits and 43 blocked shots on the season.

Weegar produced an assist, five hits and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 3-2 overtime win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar earned the secondary helper on Aleksander Barkov's game-winning goal in overtime. The 27-year-old Weegar is already up to five assists through eight contests, proving last year's 36-point effort from 54 games was not a fluke. The Ontario native has added 14 shots on net, 23 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating in 2021-22 while logging top-pairing minutes.

Weegar provided two assists and two shots on goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

Through 50 outings, Weegar has 32 points, 91 shots, 110 hits, 73 blocked shots and a plus-23 rating. If he sticks on the power play, he could be a true all-around force in fantasy.

Weegar scored an NHL career-high four points (one goal, three assists) in a 4-3 overtime victory over Carolina on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar tied a team record for most points in a game by a defenseman. He has 29 points, including four goals, in 47 games, but just one assist in the six games previous. That means that many fantasy managers likely chose someone else to activate Saturday. Weegar gets next to no power-play opportunity, so his 29 points are hard-fought. Not bad for a seventh-round pick (2013).
