Pots game-winner Friday Rasmussen scored a goal and blocked four shots in Friday's 5-3 win over the Hurricanes.
Impact Rasmussen's second-period tally stood as the game-winner. He had been limited to one assist over his previous eight contests, a slump deep enough to see him demoted to the fourth line for Friday's game. He's now at 11 goals, 19 points, 92 shots on net, 129 hits, 58 blocked shots and a minus-12 rating across 70 appearances this season, his lowest scoring pace in four years.

Posts power-play assist Rasmussen notched a power-play assist, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.
Impact Rasmussen has a goal and an assist over 10 contests since returning from a head injury. The 25-year-old has been on the first line for the last two games, which may help ignite his offense down the stretch if he stays in that spot. For the season, he's at 18 points (four on the power play), 88 shots on net, 120 hits, 50 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 66 appearances. Rasmussen may be worth streaming if his point production ramps up.

Grabs first goal since return Rasmussen scored a goal, took five shots on net, dished two hits and blocked two shots in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Impact Rasmussen lit the lamp in the third period of Friday's contest, marking his first point since his return from a head injury. Overall, he is up to 10 goals, 17 points, 84 shots on net and 113 hits in 61 appearances this season. The 25-year-old center is currently on the fourth line and back to his role of bringing physicality to Detroit's bottom six. While his fantasy value has a low ceiling, Rasmussen could be a good add in banger leagues down the stretch if he can find the goalscoring consistency he found last month.

Ducks' Trevor Zegras suspended 3 games for his hit to the head of the Red Wings' Michael Rasmussen

Anaheim Ducks forward Trevor Zegras has been suspended three games without pay for a hit to the head of Detroit's Michael Rasmussen
FEBRUARY 24 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Won't travel with team Rasmussen (upper body) won't travel with the Red Wings ahead of Tuesday's game against the Wild, Max Bultman of The Athletic reports.
Impact Rasmussen sustained an upper-body injury during Sunday's overtime win over the Ducks after taking a hit to the head in the second period, and he'll be unavailable for at least one game. Andrew Copp (undisclosed) will also be sidelined, so Christian Fischer could enter the lineup Tuesday. Head coach Todd McLellan said Monday that Rasmussen is considered day-to-day, so the 25-year-old should be considered questionable for Thursday's game against the Blue Jackets.
FEBRUARY 24 • ROTOWIRE
Dealing with upper-body injury Rasmussen is being evaluated for an upper-body injury following Sunday's overtime win over the Ducks, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact Rasmussen took a hit to the head from Trevor Zegras late in the second period Sunday and went to the locker room immediately afterward. Rasmussen didn't return to the game, and head coach Todd McLellan said after the matchup that the 25-year-old is still being evaluated. It's not yet clear whether Rasmussen will be available against the Wild on Tuesday, but if he's forced to sit out, Christian Fischer could enter the lineup since Andrew Copp (undisclosed) won't suit up against Minnesota.

Scores in shootout win Rasmussen scored a goal while adding two shots, one hit and one blocked shot in Thursday's 3-2 shootout win over Edmonton.
Impact Rasmussen found the back of the net for the second time over his last three games, and that snapped a stretch of just one point across a 16-game stretch. Rasmussen has 15 points across 50 games this season, so even if he's on a good stretch over the last three games, it's not enough to make him relevant in most fantasy formats.

Cleared to play against Vancouver Rasmussen (undisclosed) is available for Monday's game against the Canucks, Helene St. James of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Impact Rasmussen suffered an injury after scoring an empty-netter against the Lightning on Saturday, but he won't be forced to miss game time due to the ailment. Over 12 appearances this month, the 25-year-old has logged a goal, an assist, 21 hits, eight blocked shots, two PIM and a minus-3 rating while averaging 12:17 of ice time.

Hurt after scoring empty-netter Rasmussen (undisclosed) was injured late in the third period of Saturday's 2-0 win over the Lightning, Daniella Bruce of the Red Wings' official site reports.
Impact Rasmussen scored an empty-netter but was injured in a scrum after the tally. Bruce adds that Rasmussen was being evaluated after the contest and seems to be okay, but it'll be worth checking on his status prior to Monday's game versus the Kings. The goal ended a 16-game stretch in which the 25-year-old was limited to one assist.

Stuck in goal drought Rasmussen has collected three assists over his last 16 outings after being held off the scoresheet in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime loss to the Flyers.
Impact Rasmussen scored in back-to-back games Dec. 14 and 18, but he hasn't lit the lamp since. The 25-year-old received extra ice time in the first half of December, but his recent scoring struggles have sent him back to bottom-six duties. He lined up as the fourth-line center Tuesday. The physical forward has 13 points, 54 shots on net, 84 hits and a minus-3 rating through 46 appearances this season.
JANUARY 22 • ROTOWIRE
Dishes pair of helpers in loss Rasmussen notched two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 4-3 loss to the Canadiens.
Impact Rasmussen has four points over his last three games, and this was his first multi-point effort of the campaign. He's bounced around the lineup a bit -- the 25-year-old played on the third line and had just 13:31 of ice time Friday. Rasmussen has found more success when he gets top-six looks, but that's not a guarantee, so he remains more of a deep-format option for fantasy. He's produced a total of 12 points, 34 shots on net, 55 hits, 23 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 31 appearances.

Finds twine in win Rasmussen scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Flyers.
Impact Rasmussen scored for the second game in a row, giving the Red Wings a 3-2 lead in the second period. The 25-year-old forward logged a season-high 18:25 of ice time despite being listed on the third line to begin the contest. He's now at six goals, 10 points, 34 shots on net, 55 hits, 21 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 30 appearances this season. Rasmussen's role has grown over time in 2024-25, but for fantasy, his value remains limited to deeper formats that count hits.
