Pulock scored a goal, placed four shots on net and blocked three shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over Anaheim.
EDGE Analysis
Pulock struck the back of the net near the end of the third period to put the Isles up 5-2. The twine finder was his first of the season to go along with 15 assists, 41 shots on goal, 56 blocks and 24 hits through 32 games. After a standard start to the season offensively, the 31-year-old blueliner has been just shy of a point per game over his last eight contests and is tied for the team lead in assists with Mathew Barzal. Pulock also provides solid category coverage and is on pace for his eighth consecutive season with at 100 blocked shots. His defensive pairing alongside Matthew Schaefer has paid dividends for both players this season, giving the veteran Pulock above-average fantasy value in category-based leagues.

Pulock tallied two assists, put two shots on goal and blocked five shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Pulock slid the primary helper on Kyle MacLean's opening goal before later assisting Bo Horvat's tally in the second period. With the pair of apples, Pulock is up to 13 assists, 34 shots on goal, 24 hits and 48 blocks through 28 games this season. While the 31-year-old defenseman is still on the hunt for his first goal of the season, he has provided excellent category coverage of late with four assists, six shots on goal, six hits and 12 blocks in his last four contests. He lacks the goal-scoring upside that most successful defensemen in fantasy hockey have, but Pulock has worth in deep leagues that value categories rather than points while playing alongside Matthew Schaefer on the Isles' top defensive pairing.

Pulock notched an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 5-0 win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Pulock has a helper in each of his last two games and five assists over his last 11 outings. For the season, the veteran defenseman is up to nine assists, 22 shots on net, 16 hits, 33 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 21 outings. He's getting first-pairing minutes alongside rookie standout Matthew Schaefer, which could give Pulock a slight boost on offense.

Pulock notched two assists, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
This was Pulock's first multi-point effort of the season. The 31-year-old defenseman has earned all four of his helpers this year over the last four games. He's added six shots on net, 14 blocks, five hits and a plus-4 rating in seven outings. Pulock continues to be primarily a defensive force in a top-four role, but the quick emergence of Matthew Schaefer has cut off his access to playing in better scoring situations.

Pulock logged a shorthanded assist and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Pulock will have no obvious path to power-play time this year, as Matthew Schaefer and Tony DeAngelo are handling those minutes. That will leave Pulock to handle shorthanded duties and shutdown minutes at even strength, which is well within his skill set. Through four games, he's earned an assist, two shots on net, three hits, five blocked shots and a plus-2 rating.

Pulock recorded an assist, two hits and three blocked shots in Friday's 3-1 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Pulock's offense has improved recently -- he has a goal and three helpers over his last six outings. The defenseman helped out on Simon Holmstrom's go-ahead goal in this contest, which stood as the game-winner. Pulock is up to 22 points, 90 shots on net, 86 hits, 149 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 68 appearances. His numbers are nearly identical to what he did in 58 games last season, and he remains a steady depth blueliner for fantasy.

Pulock scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 5-3 loss to Tampa Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Pulock wired a slap shot from the point that got past Jonas Johansson at 5:58 of the third period, earning him his first power-play goal this season. Pulock is better known for his blocking -- he has 143 on the season after a four-block effort Saturday. He has 20 points (five goals, 15 assists), 87 shots and 80 hits in 65 games this season.

Pulock logged an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Monday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Pulock snapped his eight-game point drought with the helper. Since the Islanders have been at full strength on the blue line, Pulock has taken a slight reduction in role, though he's still a lock to be in the lineup regularly. He's matched his point total from last season (19) while adding 86 shots on net, 77 hits, 138 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating across 63 contests. The lack of recent offense makes him tough to trust in fantasy.
