Dumba delivered three shots and one hit Saturday in a 4-2 loss to the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba has just one assist in 16 games with Tampa Bay, but he has delivered on the ice. He has 46 hits and 23 shots while averaging 18:51. Dumba's early-career offense in Minnesota has never been repeated, and that limits his fantasy value.

Dumba was plus-1 with two hits and a blocked shot in 20:04 of ice time in his Lightning debut Saturday in a 7-0 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
"I had to get the body going, but coming to a team like this is so exciting," Dumba said after the game. "Those guys are fun to watch. It's nice to be on this side." He isn't much of a fantasy guy at this point in his career, but he will make a big impact on the ice for his new team.

Dumba, along with a 2025 seventh-round pick, was traded to Tampa Bay from Arizona in exchange for a fifth-round pick in 2027 on Friday, according to Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba will likely see bottom-pairing usage with the Lightning, adding some grit to the team's blue line. Dumba had four goals, six assists, 150 hits and 84 blocked shots in 58 games for the Coyotes before the trade.

Dumba will be kept out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Minnesota because of trade-related reasons, per Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba might be dealt before Friday's trade deadline. He has four goals, 10 points, 55 PIM, 150 hits and 84 blocks in 58 appearances this season. If he remains with Arizona, Dumba is likely to resume serving in a top-four capacity after the deadline.

Dumba (not injury related) may not play Thursday against Minnesota, Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba has been linked to a possible trade, so it's possible he'll be moved before before puck drop against the Wild. Otherwise, he could be held out as a precaution. The 29-year-old blueliner has managed just one point in his last seven contests during which he generated a mere six shots. As such, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting him to produce offensively even if he winds up elsewhere via a trade.

Dumba recorded an assist in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba snapped a six-game point drought with the helper on Nick Bjugstad's second-period tally. The 29-year-old Dumba has had just a couple of small bursts of production on offense this season. He's at a meager 10 points with 61 shots on net, 55 PIM, 150 hits, 84 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 58 appearances.

Dumba recorded an assist, two shots on goal, two hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba has four points over his last five games. The 29-year-old defenseman hadn't shown much on offense before this recent warm-up, though fantasy managers may not want to jump on board just yet, given his poor track record for sustaining offense over recent seasons. He's earned just nine points with 54 shots on net, 124 hits, 78 blocked shots and 51 PIM across 51 outings this campaign. Dumba should continue to see top-four minutes with the Coyotes, but he's best left to a depth role in fantasy formats that value non-scoring production.

Dumba scored a goal, added an assist, logged four hits and blocked three shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
This was Dumba's first multi-point effort of the campaign. He already has three points over six games in February after logging just a single assist in December and January combined. The 29-year-old is at four goals, four assists, 52 shots on net, 122 hits, 76 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 50 appearances.

Dumba scored a goal on three shots, doled out two hits, blocked three shots and added four PIM in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba had gone 29 games without a goal, picking up just one assist in that span. His tally Monday opened the scoring late in the first period. Dumba's offense has been extremely limited in his first year with the Coyotes -- he's at six points, 50 shots on net and a minus-10 rating while adding 47 PIM, 101 hits and 70 blocked shots over 47 appearances. Despite the poor scoring, he's maintained a top-four role.

According to Craig Morgan of PHNX Sports, Dumba (upper body) will return to action against Vegas on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Dumba has had plenty of trouble picking up points with the Coyotes, as he had only one assist in his last 27 appearances before missing the last three contests. Dumba has two goals, three assists, 84 hits and 61 blocked shots in 44 games this season.
