Carrick scored a goal in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
This was Carrick's second goal in the last six games. The 33-year-old center doesn't add much offense from a fourth-line role, and he was under the 10-minute mark for the fifth time in seven contests. For the season, Carrick has three goals, nine points, 53 shots on net, 42 PIM, 75 hits, 26 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 52 appearances.

Carrick scored a goal Monday in a 4-2 loss to Seattle.
EDGE Analysis
It was Carrick's second goal of the season. His first snipe came Oct. 28 and this one came 36 games later. Carrick's contributions for fantasy come with his hits (69), as he has just two goals and six assists in 47 games. He's a classic better on the ice than in the fantasy arena center.

Carrick posted an assist in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Carrick played after being a game-time decision due to an illness Monday. With the helper, he snapped an 18-game point drought. The fourth-line center doesn't get many chances to influence play on offense, but he's part of the Rangers' penalty-killing group. He's earned seven points (one shorthanded), 44 shots on net, 56 hits, 28 PIM and 21 blocked shots through 41 appearances this season.

Carrick (illness) is expected to play Monday in Carolina, per Colin Stephenson of Newsday.
EDGE Analysis
Carrick didn't end up missing a game due to the illness. He has a goal, six points, 28 PIM and 55 hits in 40 appearances in 2025-26. Carrick is projected to skate on the fourth line alongside Jonny Brodzinski and Matt Rempe.

Carrick (illness) skated, but he's still considered a game-time decision for Monday's game against the Hurricanes, per Mollie Walker of the New York Post.
EDGE Analysis
It's very encouraging that Carrick skated, so it wouldn't be surprising if he ends up being in the lineup. If he does play Monday, then Carrick will likely serve in a bottom-six capacity. Conor Sheary is expected to draw into the lineup if Carrick proves to be unavailable.

Carrick (illness) didn't participate in Sunday's practice, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Carrick still has some time to recover before Monday's matchup against Carolina. He has contributed one goal, five assists, 44 shots on net, 20 blocked shots and 55 hits across 40 appearances this season. If Carrick can't play against the Hurricanes on Monday, Conor Sheary could replace him in the lineup.

Carrick's point drought is up to 11 games after he failed to get on the scoresheet in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Furthermore, Carrick has just one helper over 22 games since he scored in an Oct. 28 win over the Canucks. The 33-year-old center is valuable enough to the Rangers in a fourth-line and penalty-killing role that he stays in the lineup even during slumps. He has six points, 34 shots on net, 50 hits, 28 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 33 appearances, but he's likely to fall far short of his career-high 20 points from last year.

Carrick scored an empty-net goal and added five PIM in Tuesday's 2-0 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
Carrick fought Marcus Pettersson late in the first period. In the end, Carrick had the last laugh, striking the empty net from long distance to help the Rangers secure the win. The 33-year-old center is now at one goal, four assists, 20 shots on net, 15 hits, eight blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 11 appearances. He has rarely produced much more than one shot per game, but if he keeps putting the puck on net, he could challenge his career-high 20-point effort from last season.

Carrick dished out two assists, had four shots on net and provided three hits in Saturday's 6-1 win against Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Carrick had a strong performance Saturday that he kicked off with a shorthanded assist on Mika Zibanejad's opening goal. Carrick then provided a secondary helper on Matt Rempe's goal later in the contest. The 33-year-old Carrick has three assists in as many contests this year and is currently on the best pace offensively of his 10-year career. He will likely slow down at some point, but if Carrick can maintain a fraction of this pace, his potential for 100-plus hits should give him some play in banger leagues.

Carrick logged an assist, three hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
Carrick has filled a fourth-line role to begin the season, keeping Juuso Parssinen and Jonny Brodzinski in the press box. The 33-year-old Carrick is a defensive center, so his contributions aren't likely to be of much help in fantasy. He had a career-high 20 points with 137 hits and 58 PIM over 80 regular-season outings in 2024-25, and that level of production is likely a best-case scenario for the remainder of his career. However, it's a positive that he's been playing fairly well after missing a few days due to a lower-body injury during the preseason.
