Lends helper in loss Dumoulin notched an assist in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

Impact Dumoulin has three points and a plus-3 rating over his last six outings. The 33-year-old continues to play in a bottom-four role, though his shutdown skills make him an option to play bigger minutes when the Ducks are holding a lead. Dumoulin is up to 15 points through 59 outings -- one point shy of matching his 80-game total from 2023-24 with the Kraken. He's added 55 shots on net, 59 hits, 89 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating while averaging 19:49 of ice time per game. Dumoulin doesn't score enough to help most fantasy managers, but it looks like the only way he'd leave the Ducks' lineup is if he was traded.

Nets first goal of season Dumoulin scored a goal in Saturday's 2-1 shootout win over the Kings.

Impact Dumoulin had a timely tally, opening the scoring at 7:04 of the third period. The Ducks couldn't hold on in regulation, but they came away with a shootout win backstopped by a stellar performance from Lukas Dostal. For the season, Dumoulin is up to 13 points in 54 appearances after scoring his first goal in 2024-25. He's added 51 shots on net, 55 hits, 85 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating. He has six goals and 16 points over 80 outings with the Kraken in 2023-24, and he could surpass that point total this season, potentially getting to the 20-point mark for just the third time in his career.

Assists in consecutive contests Dumoulin notched an assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Predators.

Impact Dumoulin helped out on a Trevor Zegras tally in the second period. The 33-year-old Dumoulin has an assist in each of the last two games and four of his last seven contests. The defenseman isn't a big scorer, but he's contributed 12 helpers, 47 shots on net and a minus-4 rating while adding 51 hits and 81 blocked shots through 49 appearances. He's been a defensive fixture in the Ducks' lineup in his first season with the team.

Manages helper against old team Dumoulin produced an assist, two shots on goal, three blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Penguins.

Impact Dumoulin has three helpers over his last six outings. The 33-year-old has been in the lineup regularly for the Ducks as a veteran presence. He's up to 11 assists, 47 shots on net, 50 hits, 78 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 48 appearances. Dumoulin's offense is too limited for most fantasy managers, but it looks like the Ducks will play him regularly, meaning one of Olen Zellweger, Pavel Mintyukov or Drew Helleson will be a healthy scratch most of the time.

JANUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE

Picks up assist Sunday Dumoulin logged an assist and two blocked shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Dumoulin ended a five-game skid with a helper on Jansen Harkins' first-period tally. While he's a regular in the Ducks' lineup, Dumoulin's role often doesn't lead to much point production.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Breaks out of drought Dumoulin recorded an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Devils.

Impact Dumoulin put a 15-game slump to rest when he helped out on Robby Fabbri's third-period tally. The 33-year-old Dumoulin is not a big scorer, instead serving as a veteran defensive presence for the Ducks this season. He has seven assists, 36 shots on net, 34 hits and 56 blocked shots through 36 outings. The Ducks have mostly limited healthy scratches to younger blueliners, so Dumoulin should play regularly even if he doesn't produce much offense.

JANUARY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Making little impact on offense Dumoulin remains in a third-pairing role but has not registered a point since Nov. 25, a span of 13 contests.

Impact Dumoulin continues to see bottom-four minutes for the Ducks even after the team made some trades to reshape its blue line. The 33-year-old has not been a strong source of offense this year, picking up just six assists with 34 shots on net and a minus-1 rating over 33 contests. Dumoulin has added 32 hits and 54 blocked shots and should continue to make most of his impact in the defensive zone.

Pockets helper against former team Dumoulin logged an assist in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.

Impact Dumoulin set up Trevor Zegras' first-period tally on a delayed penalty. With four helpers over his last seven contests, Dumoulin has been better than usual on offense over recent weeks. The 33-year-old defenseman has six assists, 25 shots on net, 36 blocked shots, 22 hits and a plus-5 rating through 20 outings overall, providing a stable veteran presence on the Ducks' inexperienced blue line.

Impact Dumoulin helped out on goals by Cutter Gauthier and Ryan Strome in the third period. With three helpers over his last three games, Dumoulin appears to be picking up the slack created by the absence of Cam Fowler (upper body). Dumoulin now has five assists, 22 shots on net, 31 blocked shots, 18 hits and a plus-5 rating through 16 appearances this season.

NOVEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Collects helper in win Dumoulin notched an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Dumoulin set up Leo Carlsson's goal at 10:20 of the third period, which was the game-winner. The helper snapped a nine-game slump for Dumoulin. The 33-year-old defenseman is maintaining a top-four role for the Ducks, but he has limited fantasy value since he doesn't score much. Through 14 appearances, he has three assists, 20 shots on net, 16 hits and 28 blocked shots while averaging 19:08 of ice time.

Assists in consecutive games Dumoulin registered an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and four blocked shots in Friday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Dumoulin has a helper in each of the last two games. The 33-year-old defenseman has played a shutdown role to begin his tenure with the Ducks, adding 12 blocked shots, eight hits, six shots on net and a plus-2 rating over four appearances. Dumoulin's playing style doesn't tend to lead to much offense, so he's unlikely to be anything more than a streaming option for non-scoring production in fantasy.

Offers helper in win Dumoulin provided an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and three blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over Utah.

Impact Dumoulin's first point as a Duck was a helper on Pavel Mintyukov's second-period tally. Those two blueliners have been paired together to start the season, though Dumoulin has far less scoring upside. He's added four shots on net, six hits and eight blocked shots over three contests in a third-pairing role.

JULY 2, 2024 • NEWSOBSERVER.COM

Swapped for fourth-round pick Dumoulin was traded to the Ducks from the Kraken on Tuesday in a swap for a 2026 fourth-round selection.

Impact Dumoulin apparently has found himself as the odd man out after the Kraken signed Brandon Montour to a seven-year deal Monday. After spending his first 10 seasons with the Penguins, the veteran blueliner will now be on this third team in as many seasons after spending just one year in Seattle. While Dumoulin has reached the 20-point threshold twice in his career, that is certainly not the norm for the blueliner, who is more likely to offer between 15-20 points per season.

Nets rare goal Dumoulin scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Kings.

Impact This was Dumoulin's first goal in 26 games, and he had just two assists over that span. The 32-year-old defenseman offers next to nothing on offense, and with the Kraken officially eliminated from playoff contention, it's possible he could get rested at times. He has five goals, 14 points, 60 shots on net, 68 hits, 72 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 73 appearances in a third-pairing role.

Impact Dumoulin snapped a 10-game point drought with his helper on Jordan Eberle's first-period tally. The 32-year-old Dumoulin has filled in on the top pairing while Vince Dunn (upper body) is out of the lineup. Dumoulin has 13 points, 55 shots on net, 61 hits, 66 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 65 appearances, doing little to earn fantasy interest in most formats.

Impact Dumoulin played in his 600th career game Thursday, and he celebrated by setting up Justin Schultz's second-period goal, which was the game-winner. He's never been a huge scorer -- Dumoulin has 151 points in his career. He's been fairly quiet with 12 points, 44 shots on net, 54 hits, 53 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 54 appearances in 2023-24, playing mainly on the third pairing.
