Scores in Saturday's win Kulak scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Kulak posted six points over 13 contests in November. That constitutes a pretty good month for a defenseman who isn't known for his scoring. This season, he has five goals -- one shy of his career high -- and nine points through 24 outings, and he's added 39 shots on net, 29 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. Kulak's on pace to challenge for his first 30-point campaign, but he's also shooting 12.8 percent, which is more than twice as efficient as his next best season, so the bottom could fall out at any time.

Pockets helper Thursday Kulak notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.

Impact Kulak picked up his fourth point in the last four games when he set up Darnell Nurse's second-period tally. While Kulak was listed on the third pairing Thursday, he saw 21:54 of ice time as one of the Oilers' top-four blueliners by usage with the team dressing seven defensemen. Kulak is up to seven points, 23 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 17 contests this season. Despite his recent success, the 30-year-old has limited scoring upside, and thus only makes sense for fantasy managers in deeper formats.

Earns two points Saturday Kulak scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 7-3 win over the Canucks.

Impact Kulak has scored in back-to-back games following a slump over the previous eight contests. The 30-year-old defenseman remains listed on the third pairing, but he's seeing usage in line with a second-pairing blueliner. For the season, he's at four goals, two assists, 21 shots on net, 22 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over 15 appearances. That's still likely too little production for most fantasy managers, though he has some appeal in deep formats.

Tallies in Wednesday's loss Kulak scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact Kulak hadn't gotten on the scoresheet since his two-goal game Oct. 17 versus the Predators. The 30-year-old defenseman tied the game at 1-1 with his second-period tally. He's up to three goals, one assist, 19 shots on net, 21 blocked shots, five hits and a minus-2 rating over 14 appearances. He's exceeded 20 minutes of ice time in five of the last seven games, so it appears Kulak is gaining trust with head coach Kris Knoblauch.
