Weegar logged an assist, four hits and two PIM in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar has earned three assists over his last six outings. The 29-year-old helped out on a Mikael Backlund tally in Thursday's game.

He's up to 18 points, 103 shots on net, a plus-3 rating, 128 hits, 81 blocked shots and 41 PIM through 58 contests -- numbers that are decent enough to help in a variety of fantasy formats.

Weegar notched an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar topped 21 minutes of ice time in consecutive games for the first time since mid-December as he helped to cover for the absence of Chris Tanev (undisclosed). Weegar has four helpers over his last six outings, putting him at 14 points, 85 shots on net, 100 hits, 70 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 48 contests this season. He's been more effective as a defensive presence, so fantasy managers shouldn't be expecting a breakout on offense.

Weegar notched an assist in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar set up Walker Duehr on the opening tally late in the first period. The 29-year-old Weegar has contributed four assists over 10 games in January. He's up to 13 points 81 shots on net, 99 hits, 69 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 37 contests. With Chris Tanev (undisclosed) leaving Monday's game early, Weegar could be called upon to pick up some extra minutes if his usual defense partner misses time.

Weegar scored a goal, dished a shorthanded assist, went plus-3 and added three hits in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar made an outlet pass to Rasmus Andersson, who set up Blake Coleman on a 2-on-1 shorthanded rush for the Flames second goal. The third tally was a snipe from Weegar after a strong keep-in by Chris Tanev. The two-point effort snapped a seven-game drought for Weegar, and his goal was his first as a Flame. The 28-year-old defenseman has struggled on offense this year with nine points through 37 contests, but he's added 65 shots on net, 83 hits, 53 blocked shots, 28 PIM and a plus-3 rating while logging top-four minutes.

Weegar (illness) is expected to play Wednesday against Vancouver, per the NHL media site.
EDGE Analysis
Weegar missed Monday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Canadiens. He has six assists in 28 contests this season. Chris Tanev sustained a head injury during the game against Montreal, so even with Weegar back, the Flames only have six healthy defensemen.
