Sergachev picked up two assists Saturday in a 4-3 win over Nashville.
EDGE Analysis
His season had been quiet until Saturday -- Sergachev only had a single helper in five previous games. While he's waiting on his first goal, Sergachev is getting lots of ice time and runs the second power play where he snagged one of these helpers. The goals should come -- he's fired 10 shots in his last three games. Sometimes a little patience is in order with young defenders and that's the case with Sergachev.

Sergachev penned a three-year, $14.4 million contract with Tampa Bay on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev set a new personal best this year with 10 goals in 70 outings on his way to a third straight 30-plus point campaign. The 21-year-old defenseman also notched 13 of his 34 points with the man advantage despite primarily serving on the No. 2 unit. Looking ahead to 2020-21, there is no reason to expect any sort of drop off from Sergachev, so fantasy players should be looking to pick him up in middle rounds, especially in formats that prioritize power-play points.

Sergachev scored a goal on five shots and added five hits in Saturday's 3-2 double overtime loss to the Stars in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev potted the go-ahead goal at 3:38 of the third period, but the Lightning couldn't make that lead hold up. It was the Russian blueliner's third goal of the postseason, to go with seven helpers, 60 hits and 51 shots in 24 appearances. DFS managers may want to consider the 22-year-old for Monday's Game 6 given his large role on the Lightning's top power-play unit.

Sergachev had a pair of assists and four hits in Friday's 5-4 overtime win over the Stars in Game 4.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev helped out on Yanni Gourde's power-play tally in the second period and Alex Killorn's go-ahead goal in the third. The pair of assists snapped a six-game point drought for Sergachev. The Russian blueliner now has nine points (four on the power play), 46 shots and 55 hits through 23 games.

Sergachev scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and took 10 PIM in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Islanders in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev had a hand in two of the Lightning's three goals, but it wasn't enough to help them avoid their first loss of the series. The 22-year-old blueliner is up to two goals and five assists with 32 shots and 37 hits through 16 games. With his helper Friday coming on the power play, he now has three points with a man advantage in the playoffs.

Sergachev posted an assist, four PIM, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 8-2 win over the Islanders in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev had the secondary helper on Ryan McDonagh's first-period tally, which stood as the game-winning goal. The 22-year-old Sergachev has struggled with consistency in the postseason -- he's at just five points in 14 playoff games. The blueliner has added 12 PIM, 33 hits and 25 blocked shots.

Sergachev scored a power-play goal and added two assists in Wednesday's 7-1 victory over Boston. He also had four shots and four hits.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev unleashed a one-timer from the point early in the second period to push Tampa Bay's lead to 3-0. He also collected assists on power-play goals by Ondrej Palat and Alex Killorn, giving him a three-point night that put an emphatic end to his six-game scoreless streak. Sergachev had recorded just one assist in 10 playoff games prior to Wednesday.

Sergachev scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
The goal came while shorthanded -- it was the first shortie of his career. Sergachev now has 10 goals and 34 points in 68 games. Those 10 goals are a career mark. He has four points in his last four games, but just five in his last 11. Sergachev saw his ice time leap to 28:20 because of Victor Hedman's injury. The season is long and games are getting tougher. But the young Russian could be in for increased opportunity if the veteran Swede is out for long. And that will result in points, what with so many offensive studs on the Bolts.

Sergachev picked up two power-play assists in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
It's the third-year blueliner's first multi-point effort since Dec. 19, and Sergachev had failed to find the scoresheet entirely in his prior five games. He's now tied last year's production with 32 points (nine goals, 23 helpers) through only 65 games, giving him a shot to top the career-high 40 points he scored the season before.

Sergachev produced an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Sergachev had the secondary helper on Steven Stamkos' second-period tally. The Russian defenseman is up to 26 points, 82 shots on goal, 77 blocks, 75 hits and 39 PIM in 52 outings. His point-per-game pace is nearly identical to his 40-point effort from 2017-18. Combined with solid non-scoring numbers, the 21-year-old makes for a solid choice in fantasy.
