Rangers' Jacob Trouba: Two-point effort Thursday
Rotowire
Trouba scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over Montreal.
Both points came in the second period and the two teams traded tallies through the first 40 minutes. Trouba had a modest three-game point streak going, and while that follows an eight-game point drought, the Rangers' recent trade additions give the team more than enough talent up front to make the veteran blueliner's spot on the second power-play unit intriguing from a fantasy perspective. Trouba has six goals and 22 points through 64 games on the season, rounding out his value with 55 PIM, 161 blocked shots, 168 shots on net and 175 hits, but he could see a boost to his offense the rest of the way.

Rangers' Jacob Trouba: Bags two apples in win
Rotowire
Trouba recorded two assists, three hits and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Canucks.
Trouba has been locked in coming out of the All-Star break, as this effort comes on the heels of a dominant physical performance against the Flames on Monday, when Trouba fought twice after delivering a pair of massive clean hits. The Rangers' versatile captain showed some skill along with his physicality in this one, snapping a nine-game point drought to raise his point total to 16 through 51 games. With the offensive emergence of defense partner K'Andre Miller -- who had three assists in this one -- Trouba has settled into more of a stay-at-home role for the Rangers.

Rangers' Jacob Trouba: Finds assist in win
Rotowire
Trouba logged an assist, two shots on goal, three blocked shots and four hits in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Sharks.
Trouba's offense remains spotty -- he had a five-game point drought entering Saturday, which ended when he set up Julien Gauthier's third-period marker. The assist was Trouba's fifth of the season, and he's yet to score a goal 19 games into the season. The Rangers' captain has added 57 shots on net, 63 hits, 51 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a minus-5 rating.

Rangers' Jacob Trouba: Lends helper Tuesday
Rotowire
Trouba notched an assist, six shots on goal, three hits and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Lightning.
Trouba missed some time late in the preseason with an upper-body injury, but it hasn't carried over into the regular season. The 28-year-old was named the Rangers' captain in August. It's likely for his all-out playing style -- in addition to a career-high 39 points last season, he added 207 hits and 177 blocked shots. He'll carry more fantasy value in formats that reward his willingness to use his body.
