First point with new team Kulak notched an assist in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact This was Kulak's first point as a Penguin, to go with 12 blocked shots, two hits, two shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-1 rating. He's taken on top-four minutes, but his defensive playing style will keep him out of the mix in most fantasy formats. For the season, he has just three helpers with 50 blocks, six hits, 35 shots on net, 12 PIM and a minus-6 rating over 38 appearances between Pittsburgh and Edmonton.

Penguins send two-time All-Star goalie Tristan Jarry to Edmonton in goaltender swap

The Pittsburgh Penguins have traded goaltender Tristan Jarry and forward Sam Poulin to Edmonton for goaltender Stuart Skinner, defenseman Brett Kulak and a 2029 second-round pick

DECEMBER 12, 2025 • Associated Press

Included in Jarry deal Kulak was flipped to the Penguins from the Oilers on Friday, along with Stuart Skinner and a 2029 second-round pick, in exchange for Tristan Jarry and Samuel Poulin.

Impact Kulak joins a crowded blue line that already includes veterans Connor Clifton and Matt Dumba, which makes it difficult to see where he fits into the lineup. In 31 games this year, the 31-year-old Kulak notched two helpers but has yet to find the back of the net while registering 33 shots. With general manager Kyle Dubas stockpiling defensemen, it's possible he's not done wheeling and dealing.

Cold on offense Kulak's point drought reached 22 games in Thursday's 9-4 win over the Kraken.

Impact Kulak was not one of the 11 Oilers to get on the scoresheet in this blowout win. During the slump, the defenseman has 29 shots on net, 26 blocked shots and a minus-16 rating. He's been a fixture on the third pairing, but Kulak's total lack of offense -- two assists in 28 outings -- makes him a no-go for most fantasy formats.

3 least impressive Edmonton Oilers players from 5-4 loss to Columbus Blue Jackets ft. Brett Kulak The Edmonton Oilers’ comeback effort fell short in Columbus, losing 5-4 to the Blue Jackets on Thursday night at Nationwide Arena.

NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • SPORTSKEEDA.COM

Two apples in loss Kulak registered two assists and tallied a blocked shot in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Detroit.

Impact Kulak had a secondary helper on Noah Philp's goal before distributing the primary assist on Leon Draisaitl's twine finder. The 31-year-old defenseman now has two helpers and six blocks through six games this season. He is coming off a career high in points with 25 tallies in 82 games a season ago. If he can continue to find Draisaitl and the rest of Edmonton's offensive threats, he might be able to push for a career high in assists after distributing 18 last season. For now, however, he is best kept off the fantasy radar.
