Sergachev posted an assist, three shots on goal and five hits in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev set up Ross Colton for a one-timer in the third period, which was all the Lightning could put past John Gibson. The 23-year-old Sergachev has collected six assists through nine games in January. The Russian blueliner has 20 points, 58 shots on net, 56 hits, 55 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 38 contests overall. He's got a chance to match his career-best 40-point output from 2017-18 if he can see just a slight uptick in his scoring pace.

He played a season-high 27:38 of ice time as the Lightning only had four healthy defensemen available.

Sergachev picked up two assists in a 5-2 loss to Boston on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev has 17 points, including 15 assists, in 33 games this season, and all but four of those points have come on the power play. His production is hard earned and shows real growth in his game. Sergachev his a solid fantasy citizen right now, but his best is yet to come.

Sergachev cleared COVID-19 protocols and practiced Friday, Erik Erlendsson of LightningInsider.com reports.
EDGE Analysis

Sergachev landed in the COVID-19 protocols Sunday, according to Joe Smith of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev is one of four Tampa Bay players that landed on the COVID-19 list, with the others being center Pierre-Edouard Bellemare and goaltenders Andrei Vasilevskiy and Brian Elliott, as well as assistant coach Rob Zettler. Sergachev only has two goals, but he has delivered 12 assists on the season, so his presence on the offensive side of the puck will be missed while he's sidelined.

Sergachev recorded an assist and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev set up Gabriel Fortier's first NHL goal in the first period. The assist snapped a season-worst six-game point drought for Sergachev. Despite the skid, he's been solid with 14 points, 41 shots on net, 40 blocks, 39 hits and a plus-1 rating through 28 contests. While he doesn't stand out in any one area, the 23-year-old's well-rounded production is useful in fantasy.

Sergachev has gone six games without a point.
EDGE Analysis
It may be the longest point drought of his season, but his overall pace is on par with his 40-point rookie season. And Sergachev has really grown his all-round game. He has six shots, eight hits and nine blocks over this span. It's hard to remember some days that Sergachev is just 23. His fantasy future is strong, but it will likely continue to grow slowly given the presence of Victor Hedman on the Bolts' blue line.

Sergachev delivered two assists in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
He fed Taylor Raddysh for a shortie in the first and then dished to Steven Stamkos on a two-on-one in OT for the winner. Sergachev hasn't scored a goal since Oct. 26, but has 13 points, including 11 assists, in just 21 games. And seven of those helpers have come in his last eight games. Sergachev is very quietly pushing toward a career scoring mark.

Sergachev recorded two assists, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 4-0 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev helped out on goals by Zach Bogosian and Corey Perry in the contest. The 23-year-old Sergachev has picked up the pace a bit lately with four helpers in the last three games after he endured a five-game point drought around a two-match suspension. The Russian blueliner has 10 points, 27 shots on net, 22 hits, 18 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating in 16 appearances overall. He's often listed on the third pairing, but his usage, including a power-play role, suggests he's viewed more as a top-four option.

Sergachev has served his two-game suspension and is available for Saturday's clash with the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
In four games prior to his suspension, Sergachev registered one goal, two assists and nine shots while averaging 21:56 of ice time. The blueliner's return to the ice is well-timed for the Bolts after Erik Cernak (upper body) is expected to miss significant time following Tuesday's matchup with Carolina.
