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.

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.

Beniers notched two power-play assists and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers has opened January with five points (three goals, two assists) over four games. The center helped out on tallies by Jordan Eberle and Jared McCann in this high-scoring victory. Beniers is up to seven goals, 19 helpers, eight power-play points, 76 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 41 appearances in a top-six role.

Beniers scored a goal in Monday's 5-1 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers has three goals in his last three appearances. The 23-year-old playmaker hasn't exactly been a steady contributor on offense for the Kraken, though, as he hadn't scored a goal since Dec. 10 before this aforementioned run. With six points (three goals, three assists) over his last seven outings and a secure top-six role in the lineup, though, Beniers could be a solid streaming option in most formats if he isn't rostered already. He has 24 points (seven goals, 17 helpers) in 40 games so far this season.

Beniers scored twice and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers didn't have a multi-point effort while collecting a goal and six helpers over 13 outings in December. He made his mark early in the first period, scoring the opening goal at 3:48 before adding a second goal to stretch the Kraken's lead to 3-0 just over seven minutes later. The 23-year-old center is up to six goals, 23 points, 67 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 38 appearances. A 50-point campaign isn't out of the question, but consistency on offense remains a weak spot for Beniers. He is still shooting a career-low 9.0 percent even after Thursday's effort, so there's room to grow.

Beniers scored a power-play goal on five shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Beniers tallied with 26 seconds left in the second period to force overtime. The center has three points over his last four games, but this was his first power-play point since Nov. 18 versus the Red Wings. He's now at four goals, 17 points, 44 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 28 outings overall. Beniers is shooting just 9.1 percent this season, the lowest mark of his career, so he should be able to improve over time.
