Goal, fight in win Ferraro scored a goal on two shots and added five PIM in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Lightning.

He has three goals, four assists, 40 shots on net, 28 PIM, 96 hits and 61 blocked shots over 41 appearances this season in a top-four role.

Strong in non-scoring areas Ferraro has not recorded a point over the Sharks' first 10 games in December.

Impact Ferraro's value typically comes from non-scoring production -- he has 20 hits, 11 PIM and eight blocked shots this month. Overall, the 26-year-old defenseman has six points, 91 hits, 54 blocked shots, 21 PIM and a minus-16 rating through 37 appearances. He should continue to fill a top-four role, but without much likelihood of stronger offense, he has low fantasy value.

Scores again in win Ferraro scored a goal on two shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Kraken.

Impact Ferraro has two goals and an assist over his last four contests. The 26-year-old defenseman is up to two tallies, six points, 29 shots on net, 71 hits, 46 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 27 appearances. Ferraro has never scored more than four goals or produced more than 21 points in a season, and he's on pace to be right around those marks if he can stay healthy throughout 2024-25.

Nets goal Wednesday Ferraro scored a goal, added two PIM and logged three hits in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the Senators.

Impact The goal was Ferraro's first since April 13. The defenseman has three points over his last six contests, and that's about as good a pace as he can muster on offense. For the season, he has five points, 27 shots on net, 70 hits, 43 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 25 appearances. Ferraro's fantasy value is limited to formats that reward more than just offense.

NOVEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Snags assist in win Ferraro provided an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 7-2 win over the Kings.

Impact Ferraro set up Nico Sturm's tally early in the first period. This was Ferraro's second assist in his last five games, though he went eight contests without a point prior to that stretch. The 26-year-old is not in the lineup for his offense. He's contributed four helpers, 26 shots on net, 67 hits, 42 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating over 24 contests in a top-four role, playing mainly as a shutdown defender.

NOVEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Collects helper Monday Ferraro notched an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Red Wings.

Impact Ferraro snapped an eight-game point drought with this helper. During that slump, he went minus-9 with 24 hits and 14 blocked shots. The 26-year-old defenseman plays a physical game, and that doesn't often include making much of an impact on offense. He's at three helpers, 23 shots on net, 56 hits, 39 blocks and a minus-8 rating through 20 appearances.

NOVEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Adds assist Ferraro recorded an assist, six hits and six blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Kings.

Impact Ferraro's two helpers this season have come over the last three games. The 26-year-old defenseman continues to see top-four minutes, but he plays in a shutdown role that is unlikely to yield much offense for a team that struggles to score. He has accumulated 30 hits, 24 blocked shots, 13 shots on net and a minus-1 rating over 11 appearances.

OCTOBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lends helper in loss Ferraro notched an assist and five hits in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Golden Knights.

Impact The assist was Ferraro's first point of the season. The 26-year-old defenseman began the year on the top pairing, but he's gone six games without exceeding 20 minutes of ice time. He's also not part of the power play, with Jake Walman and Jack Thompson seeing the most time with the man advantage. Ferraro has racked up 21 hits, 17 blocked shots, nine shots on net and a plus-1 rating, serving as a steady top-four defender, but his fantasy appeal is limited to deep formats.

OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lights lamp in win Ferraro scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Saturday's 6-5 preseason win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Ferraro tallied early in the third period, tying the game at 3-3. The 26-year-old defenseman could be the Sharks' top overall blueliner this year, but he has little fantasy upside given his career high in points is 21 from 78 games last season. He'll have extra value in formats that count hits and blocked shots -- he's produced at least 100 of each in three straight years -- but Ferraro is also likely to be heavily in the red for plus-minus rating since he'll play a lot of minutes on a poor team.

OCTOBER 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Two-point effort in loss Ferraro scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Wild.

Impact Ferraro set up a Jan Rutta tally in the first period before scoring one of his own in the second. Entering Saturday, Ferraro had gone nine games without a point. The defenseman continues to play in a top-pairing role as a defensive presence. He's at a career-high 21 points with 123 shots on net, 118 hits, 189 blocked shots and a minus-35 rating through 76 appearances.

APRIL 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Ferraro has picked up the pace lately with a goal and four assists over his last five outings. Prior to that warm stretch, he went 18 contests without a point and missed four games with a lower-body injury during the slump. The 25-year-old defenseman has a career-high 19 points with 109 shots on net, 107 hits, 175 blocked shots and a minus-31 rating through 66 appearances. His physicality is a plus, but big minutes on a weak team puts a significant cap on Ferraro's fantasy upside.

Cleared to play versus Jets Ferraro (lower body) will be in the lineup for Wednesday's clash with Winnipeg, Max Miller of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Ferraro missed the Sharks' previous four contests due to his lower-body injury. The blueliner remains stuck in a 19-game goal drought during which he registered nine assists, 30 shots and 58 blocks. With just six more points, Ferraro can reach the 20-point threshold for the first time in his five-year NHL career.

Impact Ferraro took a spill into the boards during the second period and did not come back to the game.

He'll be in danger of missing some time as the Sharks will be right back in action Tuesday against the Rangers.

JANUARY 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Three helpers in Saturday's loss Ferraro notched three assists in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Senators.

Impact The 25-year-old defenseman did his best to keep the Sharks in the game, adding four blocked shots, three hits, one shot on net and a plus-2 rating to his ledger. Ferraro has three multi-assist performances in the last 10 games, racking up eight helpers in total, but those are his only points during that stretch. San Jose is taking a long look at Calen Addison on the first power-play unit, but Ferraro is quarterbacking the second unit and has been the team's most productive scorer off the blue line of late.

JANUARY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

He's matched his point production from 72 contests last year, and Ferraro could be on his way to a career year.

JANUARY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sustains upper-body injury Ferraro (upper body) won't return to Sunday's game versus the Avalanche.

Impact Ferraro was hurt in the first period on a heavy hit. The 25-year-old has four assists over his last five games. If Ferraro can't play Tuesday versus the Red Wings, Marc-Edouard Vlasic or Kyle Burroughs could rejoin the lineup.

JANUARY 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Distributes trio of assists Ferraro notched three assists and four blocked shots in Saturday's 7-4 loss to the Canucks.

Impact Ferraro has four helpers over his last two games, though it's likely just a short-term uptick on offense. The 25-year-old blueliner's career high in points in a season is 17, though he could challenge that mark in 2023-24. He's already at nine points through 34 contests while adding 58 shots on net, 37 hits, 96 blocked shots and a minus-18 rating. Ferraro should continue to see top-four usage as a solid defensive presence.

DECEMBER 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Overall, he's at five points, 49 shots on net, 29 hits, 80 blocked shots and a minus-16 rating through 28 contests while logging top-four minutes in his fifth season with the Sharks.

Impact Ferraro helped out on a Mikael Granlund goal in the third period. The assist was Ferraro's first point through 12 outings in November -- he's also gone minus-13 while racking up 41 blocked shots this month.

He's at three assists, 36 shots on net, 64 blocks, 22 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-19 rating through 21 contests in a top-four role this season.
