Sergachev produced two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev has five points over his last four games. The defenseman set up tallies by John Marino and Clayton Keller (on the power play) in the third period to help Utah salvage a standings point after being behind 3-1. Sergachev crossed the 40-point mark Friday and has 11 goals, 30 assists, 100 shots on net, 112 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating through 58 appearances. It's officially his second-best season for points, and he's still got time to push for the 50-point mark by the end of the campaign.

Sergachev scored a goal on two shots and blocked three shots in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev's tally tied the game at 1-1 just over midway through the second period. It was a career-best 11th goal of the campaign for the 26-year-old, who has flourished as Utah's top overall blueliner in his first year with the club. He's up to 39 points, 96 shots on net, 108 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating over 56 appearances this season. He's been particularly strong lately with two goals and six assists over his last nine contests.

Sergachev notched two assists (one on the power play), five blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 6-1 win over the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev helped out on Barrett Hayton's opening goal in the first period and a Clayton Keller insurance tally in the third. This was Sergachev's first game back on the scoresheet since the 4 Nations Face-Off break -- he was held without a point over the previous three contests. The 26-year-old defenseman is up to 10 goals, 28 helpers, 94 shots on net, 105 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating over 55 appearances. He's within striking distance of securing the third 40-point campaign of his career, though his career high of 64 points from 2022-23 is likely too far out of reach.

Sergachev notched a power-play assist and went minus-2 in Sunday's 5-4 shootout win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev has a power-play helpers in each of the last two games and six points, including three with the man advantage, across seven outings since he returned from an upper-body injury. The defenseman is up to 36 points (15 on the power play), 88 shots on net, 95 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 51 appearances. He plays a massive role for Utah and should be a multi-category performer as a No. 1 fantasy defenseman.

Sergachev scored a goal, dished out two assists and blocked four shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win against Philadelphia.

EDGE Analysis

Tuesday's performance matched Sergachev's highest point total of the season, tallying three points for the first time since Oct. 30 against Calgary. The latter of his two assists came on Dylan Guenther's game-winning goal. The 26-year-old blueliner has 10 goals, 24 assists, 91 blocks, and 80 shots on goal in 48 appearances this season. Sergachev's average TOI is up to 25:45, which trails only Zach Werenski across the NHL. The blueliner's 13-game goal drought from mid-December into January seems to be well behind him after scoring two goals in his past four contests. He is the heart of Utah's defense and should continue to receive many opportunities to produce in fantasy moving forward.

Sergachev scored a power-play goal on three shots and blocked four shots in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev logged 25:57 in his return from an upper-body injury. The 26-year-old had gone 13 games without a goal prior to his five-game absence, but he was able to find the twine in the first period of his return. The blueliner is up to nine goals, 31 points (13 on the power play), 75 shots on net, 85 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating through 45 appearances. He's safe to activate in fantasy and should see a large role with significant time in all situations.

Sergachev (upper body) will play versus the Penguins on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev will return from a five-game absence to play on the top pairing and first power-play unit. He had been limited to three helpers and a minus-7 rating over his first seven appearances in January before the injury, but his return will be a boost to Utah's lineup. Juuso Valimaki will be scratched to make way for Sergachev's return.

Sergachev (upper body) will be a game-time decision against Pittsburgh on Wednesday, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev has been out of action for Utah's last five outings but appears to be nearing a return to the lineup. While the blueliner is stuck in a 13-game goal drought, he has picked up seven helpers over that stretch while averaging 26:01 of ice time. Once given the all-clear, Sergachev should retake his spot on the top pairing in addition to a No. 1 power-play role.

Sergachev (upper body) won't play against Ottawa on Sunday, per Belle Fraser of The Salt Lake Tribune.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev will miss his fifth straight game. He has produced eight goals, 30 points, 72 shots on net, 81 blocked shots and 23 hits through 44 appearances this season. Nick DeSimone has been playing due to Sergachev's absence.

Sergachev (upper body) will not be an option against the Wild on Thursday, Jessi Pierce of NHL.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sergachev will be on the shelf for his third straight game due to his upper-body issue. Considering the team is heading into a back-to-back, the 26-year-old defenseman probably shouldn't be expected to suit up versus the Jets on Friday either. Once Sergachev does return to action, he figures to jump back into his role running the No. 1 power-play unit for Utah.
