Donato scored a goal on two shots, dished a power-play assist and added two hits in Thursday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Donato made an impact in the Blackhawks' third-period rally, and the two-point effort got him to 30 points for the season. The 28-year-old ends the campaign with 12 goals, 18 helpers, 149 shots on net, 105 hits and a minus-14 rating over 78 appearances. Donato is under contract for 2024-25, so he'll likely be in line for a similar bottom-six role as a decent depth scorer next season.

Donato recorded an assist in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Donato has picked up three helpers over six games in April. The 28-year-old continues to bounce around the lineup, though he rarely sees more than bottom-six minutes regardless of which line he's listed on. Donato is at 28 points, 146 shots on net, 101 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-15 rating through 76 appearances, surpassing his 27-point campaign last year with Seattle.

Donato scored a goal on three shots, dished two assists and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Donato sparked the Blackhawks' comeback with a goal, then set up Tyler Johnson and Philipp Kurashev for tallies during the rally. This was Donato's first three-point effort of the season, and it's notable he did that from a bottom-six role rather than alongside Connor Bedard. Donato is up to 11 goals, 25 points, 139 shots on net, 89 hits and a minus-15 rating through 67 appearances, putting him right in line with his level of offense from the past two seasons.

Donato scored a power-play goal on three shots in Tuesday's 7-2 win over the Ducks.
EDGE Analysis
Donato has three goals and two assists over six contests in March. His tally Tuesday was his first power-play point since Jan. 16, though he's maintained a fairly steady role on the second unit during that time. The 27-year-old forward is a solid depth scorer with 21 points, 121 shots on net, 75 hits and a minus-19 rating through 62 outings. He's been on the fourth line lately, which gives him minimal fantasy value even with the power-play role.

Donato tallied a goal and added an assist in Sunday's 7-4 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Donato picked up an assist on Connor Bedard's goal in the second period before extending Chicago's lead to 6-4 in the third, beating Connor Ingram with a wrister from the circle. It's Donato's second multi-point effort in his last five games, though the 27-year-old winger has just two goals and seven points in his last 31 contests. While Donato's usage on the power play could offer some value in deeper leagues, he shouldn't be counted on for consistent scoring production. He's up to eight goals and 20 points through 61 games this season.

Donato scored a goal on two shots, added an assist and logged three hits in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Donato earned his first multi-point effort since Dec. 19 in this contest. The 27-year-old has bounced around the lineup a bit, but he's been on the first line recently, giving him a little upside while playing alongside Connor Bedard. Donato has 18 points, 106 shots on net, 67 hits and a minus-19 rating through 57 appearances. He's worth a look in deep fantasy formats as long as he holds onto a top-line role.

Donato notched an assist, three shots on goal and two hits in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Donato helped out on a Kevin Korchinski tally in the third period. The assist snapped a six-game slump for Donato. The 27-year-old forward has a decent 15 points with 95 shots on net, 55 hits and a minus-16 rating over 49 appearances. He's not much of an option in fantasy when playing in a bottom-six role -- much of his production this season has come when he's been moved into a better spot in the lineup.

Donato scored a goal in a 5-2 loss to Montreal on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Donato provided his second tally and third point over his last two games, bringing him up to six goals and 13 points in 30 contests this year. His offensive pace is a little better than what it was in Seattle when he finished with 14 goals and 27 points in 2022-23, though that's not surprising given his increased role. Donato is averaging 14:11 of ice time this campaign, which is up from 11:15 last campaign.
