Dillon continues to offer strong physical play with 169 hits, 96 blocks and 65 PIM, but he's at 14 points over 70 appearances, putting him on track to miss the 20-point mark for the first time since the abbreviated 2020-21 season.

It's a good spot and one that could lead to some trickle-down offense, but Dillon's game is based on physicality and playing a shutdown role. He has seven hits, six blocked shots and 11 PIM over three contests in 2024-25.
