Dishes two helpers Letang logged a pair of assists, three shots on goal, four hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Letang helped out on the game-tying goal by Ryan Shea in the second period and a Bryan Rust tally in the third that stood as the game-winner. This was Letang's second multi-point effort of the campaign. The 38-year-old defenseman has a goal, five helpers, 17 shots on net, 16 hits, 19 blocked shots and a plus-8 rating through 12 appearances. If he can continue to produce at around a 40-point pace with plenty of non-scoring contributions, he's worth having on most fantasy rosters.

Strikes on power play Letang scored a power-play goal on two shots, blocked three shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Blue Jackets.

Impact Letang started slow, but he's earned four points over his last four games, accounting for all of his offense this season. His goal Saturday was the first of two late in the third period for the Penguins to help get the game to overtime. Through nine contests, the veteran defenseman has added 11 shots on net, 12 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating for a team that has exceeded early expectations.

Reaches big milestone Tuesday Letang collected two power-play assists in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.

Impact With his second helper of the night -- on Justin Brazeau's insurance tally in the third period -- Letang reached 600 career assists, becoming the 20th defenseman in NHL history to reach that plateau. He's also just the 10th to do it with a single team, a list that includes Hall of Fame legends like Bobby Orr, Larry Robinson, Denis Potvin and Nicklas Lidstrom. Letang is nearing the end of his career at 38 years old, but he's not quite done yet, and after being held off the scoresheet through Pittsburgh's first five games of the season he's cashed in three assists in the last two.

Impact Letang's helper was his first point in six outings this season. He had an injury scare against the Rangers on Oct. 11, but he's been fine during the Penguins' road trip through California, playing in his usual top-four role. The defenseman has added six shots on net, nine blocked shots, eight hits and a plus-3 rating to begin the campaign, but he'll need more offense to be reliable in fantasy.
