Tyler Kleven - NHL News & Rumors

Scores again Thursday Kleven scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Bruins.

Impact Kleven is mostly a shutdown defenseman, but he has a goal in each of his last two games, as well as six shots on net and eight hits. The 23-year-old has held down a third-pairing role throughout the campaign. The offense is unlikely to last given his skill set. He's at four goals, two assists, 61 shots on net, 81 hits, 81 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 62 appearances.

Tallies in win Kleven scored a goal on three shots, added seven hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact The goal snapped a 17-game point drought for Kleven. The 23-year-old defenseman rarely makes much of an impact on offense while playing in a third-pairing role. For the season, he has three goals, two assists, 58 shots on net, 80 hits, 80 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 61 appearances.

Back in action Saturday Kleven (lower body) will return to the lineup versus the Rangers on Saturday, according to Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia.

Impact Kleven sat out three games. The 23-year-old defenseman has two goals, two assists, 23 PIM, 70 hits and 76 blocked shots in 58 appearances this season.

Labeled week-to-week Kleven (lower body) is considered week-to-week according to head coach Travis Green, per TSN 1200 Ottawa on Monday.

Impact Kleven didn't travel with the Sens for their two-game road trip but his recovery timeline would seem to rule him out even longer. At this point, fantasy players should probably expect the 23-year-old blueliner to be placed on injured reserve -- though it's possible the team doesn't need the extra roster spot. Either way, Kleven won't be in action in the short term.

Not on road trip Kleven (lower body) didn't accompany the Senators for the team's two-game road trip, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports Monday.

Impact Kleven will miss his second straight game against Washington on Monday and presumably won't be available for Wednesday's matchup versus Chicago. He has accounted for two goals, four points, 54 shots on net, 76 blocked shots and 70 hits across 58 appearances this season. It's unclear when Kleven will be ready to return to the lineup.

Won't play Saturday Kleven (lower body) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Sharks, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Impact Kleven exited Wednesday's game against the Jets due to a lower-body injury that he sustained in a fight, but he's apparently dealing with a strain that is unrelated to the scuffle. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but his next chance to suit up will be Monday in Washington.

Suffers lower-body injury Kleven (lower body) won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Jets.

Impact Kleven was hurt after a fight with Adam Lowry in the first period. The 23-year-old Kleven has gone 15 games without a point, so his absence is not likely to make an impact in fantasy. The Senators have dressed seven defensemen lately, so they may not need to immediately bring up a blueliner if Kleven is ruled out for Saturday's game against the Sharks.

Offense slips away again Kleven was held off the scoresheet for the 13th straight game in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Panthers.

Impact In that span, Kleven is minus-4 with 12 hits, 23 blocked shots and 16 shots on net. The 23-year-old defenseman has been a fixture on the third pairing this season, but it's his defensive work and physical play that have kept him there, along with a few injuries to other blueliners. Kleven is at four points, 53 shots on net, 68 hits, 72 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 56 appearances in 2024-25.

Opens scoring in blowout win Kleven scored a goal, logged four hits and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

Impact This tally ended an 18-game slump on offense for Kleven, and it also set the tone for a blowout win. The 23-year-old defenseman has been a fixture on the Senators' third pairing, but he brings little to the table on offense. He has three points, 36 shots on net, 54 hits, 44 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 41 appearances, so most fantasy managers can look elsewhere for help on the blue line.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Remains quiet on offense Kleven has not recorded a point over his last 12 games since scoring Nov. 27 versus the Sharks.

Impact The 22-year-old defenseman has just two points through 34 outings this season. Kleven has seen steady time on the Senators' third pairing, but as more of a shutdown presence. He's added 29 shots on net, 44 hits, 37 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating while averaging 14:22 of ice time. Kleven's lack of offense gives him minimal fantasy appeal.

DECEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores first career goal Kleven scored a goal and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Sharks.

Impact Kleven's first NHL goal came in his 39th career appearance. The tally was his first point in November and just his second point through 22 outings. Kleven has maintained a steady third-pairing role, but he's averaging a meager 14:24 of ice time per game. He's produced 19 shots on net, 33 hits, 25 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. The 22-year-old's progress likely doesn't need to be tracked in redraft formats in 2024-25, and his appeal in keeper leagues is not particularly high either.

Logs first point of season Kleven notched an assist and two hits in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact The helper was Kleven's first point in eight games this season, matching his output from nine NHL contests in 2023-24. The 22-year-old defenseman has been a regular on the Senators' third pairing as one of three left-shot blueliners on the roster. He's added nine shots on net, 15 hits, 11 blocked shots, four PIM and a plus-1 rating. Kleven is unlikely to score enough to help in fantasy, but he's racking up plenty of production in the physical categories.
