Jets' Neal Pionk: Among NHL's top scoring defenders
Pionk set up three goals in a 6-3 victory over the Rangers on Tuesday.
Don't look now, but Pionk is tied with teammate Josh Morrissey for second among NHL defensemen with 17 points. Pionk's best season came in 2019-20, when he rang up 45 points in 71 games. He's miles ahead of that pace with three goals, 14 assists, five power-play points and 33 shots in 16 games.

Jets' Neal Pionk: Logs assist in Saturday's win
Pionk had an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Stars.
Pionk's hot October has given way to a quieter November -- he has two helpers over his last five games. That was likely to happen anyway, as the 29-year-old is a solid scorer but certainly not a point-per-game threat. He has three goals, 11 assists, 33 shots on net, 27 blocked shots, 20 hits and a plus-10 rating through 15 outings overall. Pionk should continue to offer strong non-scoring production even if his offense fades further.

Jets' Neal Pionk: Contributes helper Friday
Pionk managed an assist, two shots on goal, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 6-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
Pionk got on the scoresheet for the second game in a row, and he's done so in eight of the Jets' first 11 games. The defenseman set up Mason Appleton's second-period tally, which was the game-winner. Pionk is offering a bit of everything early on with 13 points, 27 shots on net, 15 hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating while playing on the second pairing and second power-play unit. The offense will fade eventually -- he's never finished with more than 45 points in a season -- but Pionk is looking like a strong blueliner for fantasy.

Jets' Neal Pionk: Lights lamp twice in big win
Pionk scored two goals, one on the power play, in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Red Wings.
The veteran blueliner found the back of the net in the first and third periods, recording his first multi-goal performance since Oct. 19, 2022. Pionk has been one of the engines of Winnipeg's hot start to the season, piling up three goals and 12 points in 10 games with 25 shots on net, 16 blocked shots, 13 hits and a plus-5 rating.

Jets' Neal Pionk: Extends point streak to five games
Pionk notched two assists, one shorthanded, in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Flames.
The veteran blueliner extended his point streak to five games with the performance, a stretch in which he's collected one goal and nine points. Pionk's hot start to the campaign has come without the benefit of consistent power-play time, and once the undefeated Jets begin to cool down, his production will likely cool down as well.

Pionk provided an assist, six shots on goal and three blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Kraken.
Pionk is off to a stellar start this season, and he's now on a four-game point streak. The 29-year-old defenseman has a goal, seven assists, 18 shots on net, 10 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through seven appearances. He remains in a top-four role, and with the Jets starting the year 7-0-0, Pionk has emerged as a strong secondary scoring threat from the blue line to complement Josh Morrissey.

Pionk is up to five points, seven shots on net, five hits, two blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over four games. The 29-year-old defenseman has been a little less physical than usual, but over time, he should average out to being an excellent depth option for category coverage.

The 29-year-old is expected to feature on the second pairing and second power-play unit, giving him modest upside for deeper fantasy formats that play a lot of categories.

Think of Pionk as a no-frills fantasy defenseman.

Pionk has displayed a well-rounded game this season, stacking up five goals, 19 assists, 86 blocked shots, 183 hits and a plus-11 rating through 66 contests.

The defenseman is up to 23 points, 123 shots on net, 178 hits, 85 blocked shots, 49 PIM and a plus-13 rating over 64 appearances this season.
