Vinni Lettieri - NHL News & Rumors

Scores again Monday Lettieri scored a goal on three shots and added eight hits in Monday's 6-3 win over the Sharks.

Impact Lettieri has earned two goals, six shots on net and 10 hits over three NHL appearances this season. The 29-year-old continues to see middle-six minutes while the Bruins work through the absences of Cole Koepke (upper body), Trent Frederic (illness) and Mark Kastelic (undisclosed). Lettieri has a little upside as a depth scorer and physical player, but likely won't be on the radar in most fantasy formats.

Nets first goal of season Lettieri scored a goal on three shots and added two hits in Saturday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Senators.

Impact Lettieri was able to bend the twine in his second NHL appearance of the season. The 29-year-old has slotted into a middle-six role for the Bruins and will likely stay in the lineup while Cole Koepke (upper body) is on injured reserve. Entering this season, Lettieri had totaled 27 points over 129 career games, so he shouldn't be expected to be an impact player moving forward.

Impact Lettieri's potential demotion could be an indication that Minnesota is close to getting some forward reinforcements, including youngster Marat Khusnutdinov who is finalizing his visa details. Considering the 29-year-old Lettieri hasn't scored a goal since Dec. 18 versus Pittsburgh, a stretch of 18 games without a tally, fantasy players are unlikely to be significantly impacted by a move to AHL Iowa.

Impact Lettieri returned from a 15-game absence due to a lower-body injury and enjoyed his most productive game of the season.

Lettieri has six points, 26 shots on net, 22 hits and a minus-5 rating through 20 appearances this season.

Impact Lettieri is far from a lock to step into the lineup, especially having missed the previous 15 contests.

When he does play, the 29-year-old Lettieri has offered minimal offensive production with just four points in 19 contests.

Lettieri, who last played Dec. 30, has three goals, four points, 21 hits and 11 blocks in 19 contests this season. When Lettieri's healthy, he'll likely serve on the fourth line, though there's no guarantee he'll stay in the lineup or even remain in the NHL.

Impact Minnesota clawed back from a 3-0 deficit, and Lettieri contributed to that effort when he found the back of the net at 5:33 of the third period to tie the contest at 3-3. The Wild still lost, but at least it was a good showing from the 28-year-old, who needs to take advantage of every opportunity he can get. Lettieri, who entered Monday's action averaging 10:43 of ice time in 2023-24, has three goals and four points in 14 contests. He's also spent time with AHL Iowa this season, providing four goals and eight points in 10 games at that level, and even when he is with Minnesota, the forward sometimes serves as a healthy scratch.

Back with big club Lettieri was promoted from AHL Iowa on Wednesday.

Impact Although he's been promoted, at this point it isn't clear if Lettieri will draw into the lineup for Thursday's game against Calgary. He's picked up three points through 13 top-level appearances this year.

Impact Lettieri has two goals, 11 hits and two blocks in 11 contests this season. If he clears waivers, Minnesota might send him to AHL Iowa to help clear cap space for Alex Goligoski (lower body), who is believed to be close to being activated off the long-term injured reserve list.
