Penguins' Connor Dewar: Working in regular sweater
Rotowire
Dewar (lower body) practiced in a regular jersey Thursday, Michelle Crechiolo of the Penguins' official site reports.
Dewar was previously deemed week-to-week but seems to be trending in the right direction ahead of the postseason. The 26-year-old center has missed the Penguins' prior four contests due to his lower-body issue. The Manitoba native is currently mired in a 15-game goal drought during which he's notched five assists, 21 hits and 11 shots. If given the all-clear, Dewar should reclaim a spot on the fourth line.

Rotowire
Dewar (lower body) indicated Thursday that he'll be ready to return in time for Game 1 of the Penguins' first-round playoff series against the Flyers, Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports reports.
Dewar missed the final four games of the regular season due to a lower-body injury, but he practiced in a regular sweater Thursday and will be back in action for the start of the postseason. Dewar generated 14 goals, 16 assists, 144 hits, 46 blocked shots and 19 PIM over 78 regular-season appearances, and he should reclaim a fourth-line role now that he's healthy.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Out of action Thursday
Rotowire
Dewar (lower body) won't play Thursday versus the Devils.
Dewar is considered day-to-day at this time. The Penguins could lock up a playoff spot with a win, so Dewar may be eased back into action. The 26-year-old plays a key defensive role, so he'll likely be aiming to be ready for a playoff opener rather than playing in any of the last three regular-season contests.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Pots goal in overtime win
Rotowire
Dewar scored a goal on four shots and added four hits in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Bruins.
Dewar ended a six-game skid with the tally. He had five points over five contests before the Olympic break, but the time off appears to have sapped his momentum. The 26-year-old is up to 14 goals, 25 points, 99 shots on net, 123 hits, 35 blocked shots and a plus-14 rating over 63 appearances in the best season of his career to date.
Dewar logged two assists, four hits and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Rangers.
Dewar has multiple points in three of his last six games, producing four goals, two assists, 10 shots, 19 hits and a plus-8 rating. The 26-year-old is still on the fourth line, but something has clicked for his trio with Blake Lizotte and Noel Acciari lately. Dewar has a career-high 23 points with 80 shots on net, 99 hits, 25 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 53 appearances.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Two goal, four hit night
Rotowire
Dewar scored two goals in a 6-2 win over the Blackhawks on Thursday. He added four hits.
The forward has 13 goals, eight assists, 80 shots and 95 hits in 52 games this season. Dewar is a fourth-line winger who has surprising fantasy value with his goals-hits combination. It's always a bit of roll of the dice if you're trying to pad that bruise category -- it's tempting to stick in a pylon. But a guy like Dewar, who seems to have decent hands, could deliver you a boost. That is, if you can plug him and let him ride. Trying to market time activations on guys like this is difficult at best.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Lights lamp twice in win
Rotowire
Dewar scored two goals, one shorthanded, in Monday's 6-3 win over the Kraken.
The checking-line winger gave the Penguins a 2-0 lead midway through the first period before icing things late in the third with an empty-netter. Dewar has been locked in during January, producing five goals, seven points, 16 shots on net, 12 hits, seven blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-7 rating in 10 games, and his 11 goals on the season through 48 contests have already tied his previous career high.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Pots goal in win
Rotowire
Dewar scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
Every Penguin forward got on the board, including Dewar with a third-period insurance tally. The 26-year-old forward has been pretty good in a fourth-line role this season, earning five points over eight games in January. He's up to a total of nine goals, 17 points, 70 shots on net, 80 hits, 22 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 46 appearances. He's two points shy of matching his career high from 2023-24, split between Toronto and Minnesota.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Grabs two points Thursday
Rotowire
Dewar tallied a goal, recorded an assist and served two PIM in Thursday's 4-1 win over New Jersey.
Dewar posted his first multi-point game of the season Thursday in an effort highlighted by his goal early in the second period. Following his two-point night, the 26-year-old forward has eight goals, eight assists, 65 shots on net and 76 hits through 42 games this season. He currently has a three-game point streak, his longest run of the season. Unlike a majority of fourth-line players, Dewar has provided relatively consistent offense throughout the course of the season to supplement his solid category coverage. His first full season with the Penguins has been a success thus far, as he sits just three points shy of tying his career-high total. While he looks to add onto his point streak, he has solid value in deep fantasy leagues that value category coverage due to his ability to check multiple boxes statistically.
Dewar picked up a goal in a 4-1 win over the Red Wings on Saturday.
The goal snapped a 12-game drought. Dewar has seven goals, six assists, 74 hits and 62 shots in 40 games this season while averaging 13:39 in ice time. The 26-year-old fourth liner is on a career pace, although his fantasy contributions are limited.

Rotowire
Dewar (undisclosed) will be an option for Tuesday's home matchup against Carolina, according to Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.
Dewar departed Monday's practice early due to an injury, but he's seemingly no worse for wear ahead of Tuesday's contest. The Manitoba native has contributed six goals, 12 points, 69 hits and 55 shots on net over 37 appearances in 2025-26.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Opens scoring in loss
Rotowire
Dewar scored a goal and added five hits in Sunday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Stars.
Dewar ended a four-game slide with the tally. The forward had a brief stint on the top line, but he's back in his more familiar spot on the fourth line now, which will lead to limited scoring chances. He's produced six goals, three assists, 43 shots on net, 55 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 27 appearances.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Deposits empty-netter
Rotowire
Dewar scored an empty-net goal and added three hits in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Sabres.
Dewar has seen an uptick in ice time lately, and he's been on the top line at even strength over the last four games. The 26-year-old has typically been a bottom-six option throughout his career, so a gig alongside Sidney Crosby is uncharted territory for Dewar. He's earned a larger look this season, picking up five goals, three assists, 39 shots on net, 46 hits and an even plus-minus rating in 22 appearances. He's worth a look as a streamer in deep fantasy formats as long as he's on the top line.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Fills empty net
Rotowire
Dewar scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Capitals.
Dewar had been limited to one assist over his previous six games. The 26-year-old has filled in nicely as a fourth-line forward, though the Penguins' mounting injury woes could allow him to see more ice time in the near future -- he had a season-high 15:21 in Thursday's win. Dewar is at six points, 29 shots on net and 37 hits through 15 outings, so he has plenty of appeal in banger leagues.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Scores again Thursday
Rotowire
Dewar scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Panthers.
Dewar has scored in three of the last four games. The 26-year-old is doing an excellent job of securing his place in the lineup over Philip Tomasino. Dewar has four points, 13 shots on net, 17 hits, five blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through eight appearances. He won't have widespread fantasy appeal, but his recent uptick in offense makes him worth a look in deep formats.

Penguins' Connor Dewar: Deposits goal in win
Rotowire
Dewar scored a goal on three shots and added four hits in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Canucks.
Dewar's two goals this season have come over the last three games. He tied this contest at 1-1 in the first period, answering Conor Garland's opening tally. Dewar has a total of three points, 11 shots on net, 15 hits, five blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through seven outings. He's a reliable fourth-liner but won't earn widespread fantasy interest unless he gets a better spot in the lineup.
