Leddy (upper body) will participate in Monday's game versus Minnesota, per NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy has averaged 21:16 of ice time -- 1:41 during the man advantage -- and generated 12 points over 44 games this season. The 30-year-old will return having missed three games while recovering from an upper-body injury. Jordan Oesterle is likely to see a reduced role upon Leddy's return.

Leddy (upper body) is expected to return for Monday's game against Minnesota, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy has missed the last three games while shelved due to an upper-body injury that he suffered in a 2-1 win over Anaheim on Jan. 31. The 30-year-old has averaged 21:01 of ice time -- 1:25 during the power play -- and registered six points over his last 30 appearances.

Leddy (upper body) isn't expected to be available for Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy will miss a third straight contest with his upper-body injury. The 30-year-old defender has only picked up 12 points while posting a disastrous minus-25 rating through 44 contests this campaign, so most fantasy managers shouldn't need to keep tabs on his status.

Leddy (upper body) was ruled out of Wednesday's road game against Philadelphia, per NHL.com.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy will set his sights on returning for Saturday's home game versus Philadelphia. The Minnesotan missed last Wednesday's game while dealing with a lower-body injury that he suffered in a 2-1 victory over Anaheim on Jan. 31. The 30-year-old has racked up 12 points over 44 appearances in 2021-22. His underwhelming season to this point shouldn't be derailed by his expected fourth absence.

Leddy (upper body) did not practice Tuesday and is not expected to participate in Wednesday's game against Los Angeles.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy has averaged 19:44 of ice time -- 1:30 during the man advantage -- and generated three points over the last 10 games. The next game on Detroit's schedule after Wednesday's tilt versus Los Angeles is Feb. 9 against Philadelphia. Danny DeKeyser may see expanded minutes in Leddy's absence.

Leddy -- who suffered an upper-body injury against Anaheim on Monday -- was missing from Monday's practice session, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy hasn't reached the 40-point mark since the 2017-18 campaign and was unlikely to do so this season considering he has just 12 points in 44 contests. An extended absence due to his upper-body issue could serve to further limit the Minnesota native's ability to contribute offensive this year which won't bode well heading into free agency this offseason.

Leddy took four shots in a 4-1 loss to the Predators on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy has not been as useful in the assists category this season as he had been last year with the Islanders, when he put up 29 helpers in 56 contests. With just one goal and 10 assists in 40 games for Detroit, the 30-year-old defenseman is not quite up to snuff compared to some of his best seasons.

Leddy supplied an overtime assist as the Red Wings edged the Sabres 3-2 on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy swirled around a defender and kept his eyes on Dylan Larkin, who he ultimately fed for the game-winning tally in overtime. This was a clutch helper from Leddy after the Sabres held him off the scoresheet entirely in Sunday's 4-0 win. Leddy has chipped in a goal and 10 assists through 38 games this season.

Leddy scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Leddy gave the Red Wings a brief 2-1 lead in the third period, though the Sharks retied the game on a Jeffrey Viel goal just 1:30 later. The goal was Leddy's first as a Red Wing. The 30-year-old defenseman is up to 10 points, 34 shots on net, 30 blocked shots and a minus-16 rating in 35 contests overall. The emergence of Moritz Seider and presence of Filip Hronek have drastically reduced the Red Wings' need to rely on Leddy as a source of offense. That also suppresses his fantasy value to deeper formats.

Leddy, who has exited Covid-19 protocols, isn't a lock to play Tuesday versus the Sharks, Ansar Khan of MLive.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The defenseman reportedly is available for the upcoming contest, but that doesn't necessarily mean that coach Jeff Blashill will plug him in. We expect more clarity on Leddy's status at morning skate; it's basically between Leddy and Jordan Oesterle to comprise the third defensive pairing with Gustav Lindstrom.
