He's at 18 points, 66 shots on net, 81 blocked shots, 74 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 60 outings this season.

EDGE Analysis

The Ducks' dealings at the deadline have opened up room in the lineup for both Mintyukov and Olen Zellweger, as Brian Dumoulin was shipped to New Jersey and Oliver Kylington was brought in from the Islanders. If Mintyukov is able to get stable playing time down the stretch, it should help him end the season strong. The defenseman has two helpers over his last seven contests and is at 13 points, 54 shots on net, 70 blocked shots, 62 hits and a minus-10 rating over 51 appearances this season. However, if his play slips, Mintyukov could still find himself in the press box on occasion, especially if the Ducks want to see what Kylington brings to the table.

EDGE Analysis

Mintyukov has played in just two of the Ducks' six games in February so far. He was a regular in the lineup in January, but the Ducks have rotated their young defensemen at times, with Mintyukov, Olen Zellweger and Drew Helleson all at risk of trips to the press box. For the season, Mintyukov has gone through a sophomore slump, producing 12 points, 50 shots on net, 69 blocked shots, 49 hits and a minus-8 rating through 45 appearances, though he sees power-play time when he plays.

EDGE Analysis

Mintyukov was scratched for the previous two games, but he replaced Olen Zellweger in the lineup Tuesday. The two young blueliners appear to be competing for one spot in the lineup, though it's likely neither one will be sitting out for long, as they both need playing time for their development. Mintyukov has three helpers over his last outings and is up to nine points, 38 shots on net, 50 blocked shots, 34 hits and a minus-4 rating through 32 contests. While he can put up decent offense, the playing-time situation is less-than-ideal, making Mintyukov a risky option for most fantasy managers.
