Supplies two assists in win Protas registered two assists and a plus-3 rating in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Protas had helpers on Jakub Vrana's goal in the second period, which was the game-winner, and Alex Ovechkin's empty-netter in the third. This was Protas' fifth multi-point effort, all of which have come since Oct. 29. The 23-year-old forward is up to six goals, 11 assists, 27 shots on net and a plus-11 rating over 17 outings this season. He's looking steady in a top-line role at even strength and should have no problem earning a career year.

Two-point effort in OT loss Protas scored a goal and added an assist in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact His tally late in the second period gave Washington a 3-1 lead, but the game was all Toronto down the stretch. Protas is capitalizing (cough) on his spot at even strength alongside Alex Ovechkin, and the 23-year-old has four multi-point performances in the last eight games, piling up five goals and 11 points during that time. However, that production has come without the benefit of consistent power-play shifts, and Protas' 23.1 percent shooting is unsustainable.

Tallies in Wednesday's win Protas scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Predators.

Impact Protas bounced back from a scoreless outing Sunday versus the Hurricanes, tallying his fourth goal and eighth point in the last five games Wednesday. The 23-year-old is up to five tallies, seven helpers, 20 shots on net and a plus-8 rating through 12 contests. He saw just 11:40 of ice time Wednesday but remains on the top line at even strength.

Impact Protas has his third consecutive multi-point outing and has managed 11 points in 10 games to start the season. The 6-foot-6, 225 pound winger has flourished since being promoted to the top line alongside Alex Ovechkin and Dylan Strome and could break out in a big way if he can maintain a top-six role on the scorching Capitals.

This was Protas' first multi-point effort of the campaign. The 23-year-old is seeing top-line usage at even strength, though he's not yet routinely in the power-play mix. He has two goals, five assists, 16 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over eight contests. Protas doesn't play with an edge, but he's got potential as a scoring-only option for fantasy managers.

Pockets helper Protas notched an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

Impact Protas helped out on a Nic Dowd tally in the second period. Through six contests this season, Protas has a goal, three assists, nine shots on net and a plus-1 rating.

Finds twine in win Protas scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Protas was bumped up to the top line at even strength, logging 15:12 of ice time Tuesday compared to 10:28 in Saturday's season opener. The 23-year-old forward cashed in with the game-winning goal at 5:16 of the second period, set up by linemate Alex Ovechkin. It's likely the Capitals' lines aren't yet settled, but it's a good sign Protas is in the mix for top-six minutes, though he would likely benefit further from a power-play role. The forward broke out with 29 points in 78 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

Impact It stood as the winner. Protas won a face-off in the left circle, and the puck ricocheted off the linesman's skate into the low slot, where he jumped on the puck and lifted a shot over Brandon Bussi's glove. Protas projects as a third-line winger in Washington, which limits his fantasy upside.

Impact Protas is enjoying his promotion to the top line alongside Alex Ovechkin and Hendrix Lapierre and has two goals and nine points in his last 10 games. The 6-foot-6 forward -tied for second on the Capitals with 26 even-strength points this season- is worth keeping an eye on in the season's final weeks, but a lack of power-play opportunity limits his overall fantasy appeal.
