Chips in with helper Benoit logged an assist and five hits in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Capitals.
Impact The helper ended a 13-game slump for Benoit, who has been a fixture on the Maple Leafs' third pairing this season. The 26-year-old defenseman is up to four assists through 35 contests. He's added 23 shots on net, 28 PIM, 54 blocked shots and 95 hits. Benoit is unlikely to ever be a significant scorer, but he can add ample physicality in limited minutes.

Goes quiet on offense Benoit has no points while recording 35 hits and 14 blocked shots over 12 contests in December.
Impact Benoit is a physical force on the Maple Leafs' third pairing, which has helped him to stay in the lineup. Offense isn't a big part of his playing style, which limits his fantasy value to banger formats. The 26-year-old is at three assists, 86 hits, 49 blocked shots, 26 PIM, 22 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 33 appearances.

Registers assist Saturday Benoit produced an assist, two shots on goal and a game-high nine hits in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Lightning.
Impact It's not unusual for Benoit to be ultra-physical, but the assist was icing on the cake. He helped out on a Nicholas Robertson tally in the second period, which put the Maple Leafs ahead 3-0. Benoit has contributed three assists -- all over his last seven outings -- as well as 12 shots on net, 51 hits, 35 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 21 appearances this season.

Finds helper in win Benoit recorded an assist, three hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Canadiens.
Impact The helper was Benoit's second of the season over 16 games. The 26-year-old defenseman typically makes more of an impact with physicality than scoring, and that's been true in 2024-25 -- he has 31 hits, 28 blocked shots and 12 PIM. He's holding down a third-pairing role for now, though he could face pressure for playing time from Matt Benning or Philippe Myers in the short term, and he could be out of the mix entirely once Jani Hakanpaa (knee) is cleared to play.

Chips in with assist Benoit notched an assist and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 6-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
Impact The helper was Benoit's first point in seven appearances this season. The defenseman has added a plus-3 rating, five shots on net, eight hits, eight PIM and 14 blocked shots. Benoit is known for his toughness, and he's done a passable job defensively to keep Philippe Myers in the press box.

Secures three-year deal Benoit inked a three-year, $4.05 million contract with Toronto on Friday.
Impact Benoit has logged 54 games for the Leafs this season in which he has notched one goal on 48 shots and four assists while averaging 16:55 of ice time. While the 25-year-old blueliner won't offer much in the way of offensive upside, he does have value in formats that utilize hits and blocks, as he has racked up 204 and 82, respectively.

Physical force against Caps Benoit recorded nine hits with a blocked shot, a shot on net and a plus-1 rating in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Capitals.
Impact The game got chippy in the third period as the Maple Leafs pulled away, and Benoit earned his keep with a dominant physical performance. The 25-year-old blueliner hasn't produced a point in his last nine games, but he's piled up 37 hits, 15 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over that stretch, including three separate games with six-plus. Beniot's 184 hits on the season come in only 51 games, and as long as he stays out of the press box, he should reach 200 for the second straight campaign.
