Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Pockets helper in win
Wennberg provided an assist in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Wennberg is continuing to make an impact as a set-up man, earning eight assists over his last eight contests. He delivered a primary helper on the first of Collin Graf's two tallies in Thursday's win. For the season, Wennberg is up to 31 points, 64 shots on net, 58 blocked shots and a minus-13 rating over 62 appearances. He saw some limited minutes at times earlier in the campaign, but he's firmly in the top six following the Sharks' numerous trades leading up to last Friday's deadline.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Continues playmaking surge
Wennberg notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Islanders.
Wennberg is up to seven assists over his last six games. Two of those helpers have come on the power play, and he also has a plus-4 rating in that span. For the season, Wennberg is at eight goals, 30 points, 64 shots on net, 58 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating through 60 appearances. He's a reliable defensive center, and his contributions on offense are frequently heavy to the playmaking side of the spectrum -- he finished with more goals than assists just once in his first 10 NHL campaigns, and he won't buck that trend this year.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Plucks apple in loss
Wennberg produced an assist in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Avalanche.
Wennberg has been playing in his usual style lately, earning six assists with a plus-4 rating over his last five contests. The 30-year-old has ascended to a top-line role recently, though the Sharks' first and second lines are functionally interchangeable. Wennberg is leading the more veteran trio with William Eklund and Tyler Toffoli, while Macklin Celebrini has been between Fabian Zetterlund and Will Smith. Wennberg is up to 29 points, 62 shots on net, 58 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating over 59 appearances this season. He's one point shy of reaching 30 for the fourth year in a row and the seventh time in his career.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Credited with two assists
Wennberg recorded two assists in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over the Maple Leafs.
Wennberg didn't find the back of the net in this one, but there's no question he thrived in a playmaking role after participating in the build-up of the team's two third-period goals. This two-helper outing extended his point streak to three games, a span in which he's recorded five assists, three shots on goal and three blocked shots.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Two helpers against Habs
Wennberg pocketed two assists in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canadiens.
The veteran center recorded his first points in three games since play resumed after the 4 Nations Face-Off. Wennberg hadn't produced a multi-point performance since Nov. 21, and on the season he's managed eight goals and 25 points in 55 appearances. If 19-year-old linemate Will Smith keeps heating up though, Wennberg could be positioned to take advantage.

The center is at 23 points, 58 shots, 49 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating through 50 appearances this season.

For the season, he has 20 points (eight on the power play), 52 shots on net, 41 blocked shots and a minus-11 rating over 43 appearances.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Tallies in loss
Wennberg scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Utah.

Last year, he scored just 10 times over 79 regular-season outings between the Kraken and the Rangers. Wennberg has added eight assists, 44 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a minus-9 rating in 2024-25, production that makes him a viable option in deeper fantasy formats since he's also seeing power-play time.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Prevents shutout Thursday
Wennberg scored a goal and blocked two shots in Thursday's 8-1 loss to the Lightning.
Wennberg was one of four Sharks to avoid finishing the game with a negative plus-minus rating. His tally 14 seconds into the third period broke up Andrei Vasilevskiy's shutout bid, though it was far too late to change the result. Wennberg has four goals and four assists over his last 10 outings, a remarkable run of offense for a middle-six center on a weak team. He's up to seven goals, 15 points, 37 shots on net, 30 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 29 appearances.

Sharks' Alexander Wennberg: Adds insurance with power-play goal
Wennberg scored a power-play goal in Monday's 7-2 win over the Kings.
Wennberg has three goals and three assists over his last five games, and three of the six points in that span have come on the power play. The 30-year-old center played a season-high 22:28 in this contest, picking up a lot of the slack created by the absence of Mikael Granlund (upper body). Wennberg can add depth offense but is more of a two-way center. He's at 13 points (six on the power play), 30 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating across 24 appearances, and he'll likely be in the top six as long as Granlund is out.

Wennberg provided an assist in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.
Wennberg has two goals and three assists over his last four contests.

Wennberg is up to five goals, seven helpers, 29 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 23 appearances. He'll likely stay on the third line as long as Mikael Granlund and Macklin Celebrini stay healthy.
