Slides assist in Friday's win Lauko notched an assist, five PIM and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 5-3 win over the Lightning.

Impact Lauko dropped the mitts with Michael Eyssimont in the first period, giving the Wild forward his first PIM of the season. The 24-year-old Lauko then helped out on a Brock Faber tally in the third period. Through 10 appearances, Lauko has chipped in four points, 14 hits, 13 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating. He was limited to 10 points in 60 regular-season outings with the Bruins last year, so he's on pace to have a career year in 2024-25.

Tallies in win Lauko scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Penguins.

Impact The Wild started this game poorly, but Lauko helped them turn it a around with a goal at 17:03 of the first period. The 24-year-old forward has earned three points over nine contests this season, which is decent production given he's averaging 10:13 of ice time. He's added 13 shots on net, 13 hits and nine blocked shots while seeing fourth-line usage. Outside of deep formats, Lauko doesn't make enough of an impact to help in fantasy.

Chips in with helper Lauko managed an assist, four hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Lightning.

Impact Lauko set up Kirill Kaprizov's empty-net goal with 34 seconds left in the game. That's not a scoring play that will pop up often, as Lauko is firmly in a fourth-line role in 2024-25. The 24-year-old forward has two points, 11 shots on net, 13 hits, seven blocked shots and a minus-1 rating across seven appearances.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Tallies shorthanded goal Lauko scored a shorthanded goal on four shots, added five hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Blues.

Impact The goal was Lauko's first point in four games with the Wild after he was traded from the Bruins back in June. The 24-year-old forward saw a season-low 9:20 of ice time Tuesday even with the Wild missing Joel Eriksson Ek (nose) and Marcus Johansson (undisclosed), leaving them with just 11 healthy forwards. Lauko can chip in with hits, but he had just 10 points in 60 regular-season outings last year, so he offers little in the way of scoring upside.
