Rask dished out a trio of assists -- two on the power play -- in Tuesday's loss to Dallas.

EDGE Analysis

Rask is having a great season, sitting at eight goals and 19 points in 28 games. Aside from a small stretch at the start of the season, the 22-year-old has been very consistent and appears destined to build off the career-high 11 goals and 33 points he notched in his 2014-15 rookie campaign. Use him well.

Rask triggered the goal lamp in Friday night's loss to the Sabres.

EDGE Analysis

It wasn't the prettiest goal as Rask stood near the border of the crease and appeared to sneak in a rebound off an Eric Staal shot. The score was initially credited to Staal but ended up being changed in Rask's favor. He now has two goals and one assist over the past five games.

Rask scored his sixth goal of the season Monday against the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Rask is one of the leading producers on a struggling Hurricanes team, scoring six of his 13 points on the power play. His next two games come against Edmonton and Buffalo, which are both in the bottom ten on the penalty kill.

Rask is expected to center the third line Saturday against the Flyers after being bumped from the first line during Friday's practice, Chip Alexander of the Raleigh News & Observer reports.

EDGE Analysis

Although this may seem like a demotion at first glance, Rask has actually been one of the Canes' better players this season. He's currently tied for the team lead in scoring with 10 points in 16 games, tied for second in power-play points with four, and his plus-minus rating of -2 is respectable on a team that is third-last in the league in goals scored. Given the Canes' offensive struggles, coach Bill Peters is simply switching up his forward lines in an effort find some new combinations that work. The bad news is, if Rask is now skating in a bottom-six role, his opportunites to contribute offensively will decline, and so will his fantasy value. Feel free to bench him in favour of a more viable option.

Rask racked up three assists in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Lightning.

EDGE Analysis

The 22-year-old center found himself on the score sheet for every Carolina goal Sunday, and ended the night with a plus-2 rating. Rask now has four goals and four assists through 12 games on the season, including six points in his last five contests.

Rask picked up his third goal of the season in Tuesday night's 3-1 win over the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Wings goalie Petr Mrazek made a save and carelessly passed the puck in front of him, only for Rask to promptly intercept it and light the lamp. Now, the Swede has three scores and an assist through nine games. After connecting on just 6.4 percent of his shot attempts as a rookie last season, Rask seems to be improving in that area as his shooting percentage is currently at 14.3 percent.

Rask converted his only shot on goal into the overtime winner in Wednesday's 1-0 win in Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

Rask finally solved goaltender Semyon Varlamov for the game's only goal 1:49 into overtime. The 22-year-old Swede played the hero in this one, but his overall upside is limited as the third-line center on a Hurricanes team projected to lose a lot of games.

Rask exited Saturday's game with an injury, but said Monday that he feels "100 percent" according to coach Bill Peters.

EDGE Analysis

Whatever Rask's injury was, it appears the issue has subsided. However, it's worth monitoring the situation to ensure that he's in the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Panthers.

Rask was held off the scoresheet in Thursday's season opener against the Predators.

EDGE Analysis

On paper, Rask lines up as the Hurricanes' third-line center. However, he did see 17:25 in ice time against the Preds - more than so-called second-line center Jordan Staal (14:22). He also saw more power-play time than Staal (3:02 vs. 2:33). If this trend continues, the points will probably follow, meaning you should bump Rask up accordingly on your fantasy cheatsheets.
