Provides apple in loss Burns notched an assist in Friday's 3-1 loss to Carolina.
Impact Burns produced the secondary assist on Seth Jarvis' third-period goal to end Charlie Lindgren's shutout bid. The helper snapped a three-game point drought for Burns. The right-shot blueliner's offensive output has decreased at 39 years old, and he's on pace for just 23 points. The 2003 first-round selection's value would increase if he was the quarterback of the No. 1 power-play unit, but Shayne Gostisbehere has filled that role admirably with 18 points on the man advantage in 2024-25.

Tallies in Tuesday's win Burns scored a goal on three shots and blocked five shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Sharks.
Impact Burns tied the game at 2-2 early in the third period. The 39-year-old has picked up three points and 16 shots on net over his last eight games, which isn't much, but it's better than the nine-game stretch that preceded it, which saw him earn no points and fire 12 shots on goal. The veteran defenseman has two goals, six assists, 56 shots, 40 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 28 appearances, though he continues to average 21:32 of ice time in a top-four role.

Slides helper in win Burns notched an assist and blocked three shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche.
Impact Burns' offense hasn't been consistent this season -- he ended a four-game slump with this helper. The defenseman is now at seven points, 51 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating through 26 appearances. While he can help in other areas, it's unlikely the 39-year-old gets back to a 40-point pace over the remainder of the season, so his fantasy value will be low.

Breaks unlucky spell Burns scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 6-4 win over the Stars.
Impact Prior to Monday, Burns had come up empty on 40 shots, one of three players with that unfortunate reality. He snapped his droughts with a game-tying goal in the third period, his first tally of the season and first point since Nov. 5 versus the Flyers. The 39-year-old blueliner has maintained a top-four role but has just six points to go with 42 shots, 27 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 21 outings.

Impact Both helpers came in the second period, giving Burns his first multi-point performance of the season. The veteran blueliner began the year with a five-game point drought, but since then he's racked up five points -- all assists -- in the last six contests.

Helpers in consecutive contests Burns notched an assist and five shots on goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Kraken.
Impact After starting the season quiet, Burns has a helper in each of the last two games. He's added 17 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through seven appearances. Burns continues to see heavy usage at even strength, which gives him plenty of opportunities to build some momentum on offense.

Earns first point of season Burns logged an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Flames.
Impact Burns has maintained his usual top-four role this season, albeit with less power-play time after the Hurricanes brought in Shayne Gostisbehere to quarterback the top unit. The 39-year-old Burns has been less effective -- his helper was his first point through six games, and he's added just 12 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating even with the Hurricanes off to a 4-2-0 start. Even in a down year, he had 43 points over 82 regular-season outings in 2023-24, but given his age, the bottom could fall out at any moment, so he's a risky fantasy play.

Impact Burns has three helpers over his last five games. Through nine playoff outings, the veteran defenseman has produced four points, 22 shots on net, 15 blocks, six hits and a plus-5 rating. The 39-year-old remains on the top pairing and still sees a healthy amount of power-play time despite an increased role their for Brady Skjei.

Puts up helper in loss Burns logged an assist, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers in Game 1.
Impact Burns has a helper in consecutive contests, and he's up to three points through six playoff contests. The 39-year-old defenseman has added 12 shots on net, 11 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating this postseason. He's still taking on massive minutes in a top-four role, so Burns should be capable of adding respectable scoring numbers during the playoffs.
