Beniers scored a goal, dished two assists and went plus-4 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers showed immediate chemistry with newcomer Bobby McMann, who joined him and Jordan Eberle on the top line. The 23-year-old Beniers is carrying some momentum with four goals and two assists over his last seven contests. The center is up to 18 goals, 43 points, 123 shots on net, 55 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 65 appearances. It took him all 82 games last year to earn 43 points -- Beniers is on pace to top the 50-point mark for the second time in his career.

Beniers scored a goal on three shots and added five PIM in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers put the Kraken ahead 2-0 in the first period. In the third, he participated in his first NHL fight, dropping the mitts with Justin Barron after the Nashville defenseman cross-checked Jared McCann. Beniers doesn't have much of an edge, which typically limits his fantasy value since he has pedestrian offense for a center. He's at 17 goals, 40 points, 121 shots on net, 55 blocked shots, 23 PIM and a minus-6 rating through 63 appearances.

Beniers scored a goal, added two hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers scored midway through the third period, but that only cut the deficit to 7-3 at the time. The 23-year-old has two goals over six contests since the Olympic break, which appears to have sapped the momentum he was building before the NHL went on pause. The center is at 16 goals, 39 points, 118 shots on net, 55 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 62 appearances this season. Beniers remains in a top-line role, but he's little more than a depth forward in most fantasy formats.

Beniers scored a power-play goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers snapped a five-game point drought with the goal. It was initially credited to Jordan Eberle, but a scoring change was made when it was ruled the puck clipped off Beniers' skate. Beniers has reached the 15-goal mark this season, a threshold he's achieved in each of his four full campaigns. He's at 38 points (11 on the power play), 112 shots on net, 49 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 59 appearances in a top-line role.

Beniers scored a goal in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers has four goals and two assists during his five-game point streak. He's taken a step forward on offense this month, earning 10 goals and 16 points over 16 outings in January. This sustained success hasn't been the norm for the 2021 No. 2 pick. He's now at 14 goals, 37 points, 100 shots on net, 44 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 53 appearances. He'll remain firmly in a top-line role as long as this scoring surge continues.

Beniers scored a goal on two shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over New Jersey.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers lit the lamp for the first of two goals in an 18-second span early in the third period. Overall, he is up to 12 goals, 34 points, 96 shots on net and 43 blocked shots across 51 games this season. After a solid rookie campaign, the No. 2 overall selection in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft is currently putting together one of the best stretches of his four-year career. Since Dec. 22, the 23-year-old center has eight goals, 16 points, 37 shots on net, 10 hits and 15 blocks over 18 games. He is tied for the team lead in points with team captain Jordan Eberle, and Beniers' high-level category coverage is an added reason as to why he is set up for fantasy success for the remainder of the season. Beniers is a top waiver-wire pickup across fantasy formats while his strong run of play lasts.

Beniers scored a power-play goal on five shots in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Islanders.

Beniers continues to play well in January -- he has earned seven goals and four assists over 12 outings this month. For the season, he's up to 11 goals, 32 points (10 on the power play), 93 shots on net, 42 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 49 appearances. Beniers remains on pace for a 50-point campaign, a threshold he hasn't reached since his rookie year of 2022-23.

Beniers scored a goal and added an assist Saturday in a 6-3 loss to Utah.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers has 10 goals and 21 assists in 47 games so far, but his pace is warming. He has 13 points (six goals, seven assists) and 29 shots in his last 14 games. Beniers could be starting to quietly level up for patient managers.

Beniers scored a goal and put two shots on net in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Carolina.
EDGE Analysis
In the opening period, Beniers scored Seattle's first goal of the evening to tie the game at one apiece. Since Dec. 22, he has elevated the Kraken's offense with five goals and 10 points in 10 games. The 23-year-old center has nine goals, 28 points, 82 shots on net and 37 blocks through 43 games this season. Seattle currently ranks 25th in the NHL with 2.74 goals per game, which is a number that has greatly improved over the last month. A large part of this recent success can be attributed to Beniers, who is tied for the team lead in points with captain Jordan Eberle. As a center who covers categories, Beniers' stock in fantasy is on the rise, giving him viability in most formats moving forward.

Beniers scored a power-play goal on four shots, blocked two shots and went minus-2 in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers has eight goals on the season, four of which have come over the last five games. He also has two assists in January, and three of his six points this month have come with the man advantage. The 23-year-old center is up to 27 points (nine on the power play), 80 shots on net, 37 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 42 appearances. Beniers has teased with potential before, and at a position as deep as center, fantasy managers can afford to wait and see if his surge on offense lasts.
