Suter logged an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Suter has an assist in each of the last two contests after going nine games without a point. He set up Colin Miller's game-winning tally early in the third period Thursday. Suter now has six helpers, 38 shots on net, 49 blocked shots, 41 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 31 contests. While his offense appears to have fallen by the wayside, the 37-year-old remains a key part of the Stars' defense and is unlikely to lose his spot in the lineup.

Suter picked up an assist and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Devils.
EDGE Analysis
Suter entered Tuesday on a nine-game point drought. He ended it by setting up Ty Dellandrea's goal 6:03 into the second period to open the scoring.

Suter was credited with an assist during Wednesday's 6-4 victory over the visiting Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Suter, who entered Wednesday with the most average ice time (24:55) since 1998-99, competed in his 1,300th career contest. The 2003 seventh-overall draft pick by the Predators remains one of three players from his class still active in the NHL, pacing his draft peers in games played. Suter was credited with a plus-2 rating in 22:59 of ice time against the Blackhawks, who surrendered five third-period goals. A member of the Predators, Wild and Stars, Suter, who ranks second among active defensemen in career assists, has collected 100 goals and 643 points during his 18 seasons.

Suter recorded an assist, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Saturday's 6-2 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Suter snapped an eight-game point drought when he helped out on the third of Jamie Benn's goals in the contest. The slump came after Suter opened the year with an assists in two of three contests. The veteran defenseman has three helpers, 13 shots on net, 19 blocked shots, 10 hits, four PIM and a minus-1 rating in 12 appearances. He's still logging top-four minutes, so he'll have a decent chance to find some consistency on offense.

Suter notched an assist in Monday's 4-1 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Suter has recorded two helpers (one on the power play) through three games to begin the year. The defenseman set up Jani Hakanpaa's go-ahead goal in the second period, which stood as the game-winner. Suter also has two blocked shots, a hit, one shot on goal, two PIM and a plus-1 rating this year. At 37 years old, he's expected to be more of a complementary source of offense from the blue line.

Suter recorded a power-play assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Suter and the second power-play unit connected when Wyatt Johnston scored at 4:22 of the third period. With John Klingberg gone to Anaheim, Miro Heiskanen will quarterback the top unit, leaving Suter to compete for time on the second unit, though the 37-year-old veteran should be the favorite there. In 2021-22, 13 of Suter's 32 points came on the power play, and he's still logging top-four minutes at even strength.

At 37 years old, he impressed with 32 points in 82 regular-season outings while providing veteran leadership and solid defense in a top-four role, one he's likely to reprise in 2022-23, the second campaign of his four-year contract he signed last July.

He's added eight blocked shots, a minus-2 rating and six shots on net in a top-four role, though the low-scoring nature of the series has limited his chances to generate offense.
