• Ducks' Derek Grant: Starts and ends scoring

  8D ago •

  Grant scored a pair of goals on five shots and went plus-2 in Monday's 4-2 win over the Kings. Grant has tallied eight goals this season, but five have come in two separate games. He scores in bunches, and now has 11 points and 42 shots on goal in 28 appearances. The fourth-liner may be of fantasy interest to owners in deeper formats, but he has just 19 hits and 16 blocked shots this season.

• Ducks' Derek Grant: Earns first career hat trick

  24D ago •

  Grant posted a hat trick, six shots on goal, a plus-3 rating and two PIM in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blues. Grant gave the Ducks a 2-0 lead in the first period, then scored a shorthanded tally in the second and secured the win with an empty-netter set up by Ryan Getzlaf in the third. Not bad for a player who had 18 goals in 228 career games prior to Saturday's outburst. Grant now has five goals and eight points through 21 games. Don't rush to add the 29-year-old in fantasy -- big offensive efforts are rare for the fourth-liner.

  Grant scored the game-winning goal and added an assist, four shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Jets. While the top-six kept the Ducks in the contest, Grant's fourth-line unit helped secure the result at the end. Grant scored at 9:10 of the second period for the ultimately decisive goal, then set up an insurance tally by Carter Rowney in the third. This was just the second game-winning goal of Grant's career. In 14 games this year, the 29-year-old has two goals and five points.

  Grant registered an assist in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche. Grant's usage on the fourth line makes offensive opportunities few and far between. He is up to three points in 12 appearances this season, to go with 18 shots on goal, eight hits and seven blocked shots. He's safe to leave on the waiver wire.

• Ducks' Derek Grant: Opens scoring Thursday

  10/04/2019 •

  Grant scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 with two hits in Thursday's 2-1 win over the Coyotes. Grant would have been an unlikely guess for the Ducks' first goal of the season, but he was able to get one by Coyotes goalie Darcy Kuemper in the first period. The fourth-liner was rewarded for his effort by skating 16:35 in the contest, second-most among Ducks forwards. Grant managed only 14 points in 56 games between the Ducks and Penguins last season, making it unlikely that he'll be a frequent contributor to the offense.
