Radko Gudas

Radko Gudas tallied an assist, four shots on goal, two hits, and three blocked shots in the Ducks' 5-2 loss to the Panthers on Tuesday. His assist on Mason McTavish's first-period goal snapped a five-game scoring drought.

Fantasy Impact

While Gudas isn’t known for offensive contributions, his value lies in his consistent physical play. The veteran defenseman has logged at least two hits in 23 consecutive games and rarely goes without a block. Through 47 appearances this season, he has 11 points, 58 shots on net, 105 blocks, and 154 hits, along with a minus-4 rating. Gudas remains a strong option in leagues that reward hits and blocks, providing reliable multi-category depth for fantasy managers.

Radko Gudas provided fantasy managers with some peripheral stat help on Sunday, helping the Panthers down the Blackhawks 5-2. He didn't tally a point but registered a plus-1 rating, four PIMs, one shot, eight hits and five blocks.

Fantasy Impact

Gudas is not known for his scoring touch so anything in the goals category is a bonus, but he can be well relied upon to show up for hits, blocks and PIM. He's sitting on a league-leading 208 hits and 67 blocks and 59 penalty minutes.

Radko Gudas will be on the shelf for Thursday's game against the L.A. Kings as he joins four of his teammates in the protocol.

Fantasy Impact

You probably won't be missing the scoring that he provides because he doesn't really provide it. He is a good third or fourth fantasy defenseman due to his grit and can be counted on for hits and blocks.

Gudas helped Lars Eller make it 4-3 in the third period of the Caps loss to the Penguins.

Fantasy Impact

This was the defensman's first point since Jan 7 (eight point-less games) so he should not be on fantasy teams.

Gudas made it 2-1 in the second period as the Caps clobbered Ottawa 6-1.

Fantasy Impact

With improving play recently, the veteran got almost twenty minutes of ice time in this game. At 14 points in 44 games (+20) he is probably not a factor in fantasy.
