Duhaime scored an empty-net goal on two shots, doled out five hits, blocked three shots and added two PIM in Wednesday's 4-1 win over the Canadiens in Game 5.
Duhaime put up three goals over the final two games of the series. That's all of his offense this postseason, to go with eight shots on net, 20 hits, seven blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-1 rating. He's a role player on the fourth line, so don't expect Duhaime to add significant offense during the rest of the playoff run.
Duhaime scored two goals on three shots, added five hits and blocked two shots in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens in Game 4.
Duhaime banked in a shot to tie the game at 2-2 at 6:39 of the third period, and he added an empty-netter later in the frame. This two-goal effort ended a stretch of 13 contests in which Duhaime was limited to two assists, 11 shots on net, 33 hits and 28 PIM. He's picked up six shots, 15 hits, four blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating over four playoff outings, though he remains firmly in a bottom-six role.

Capitals' Brandon Duhaime: Nets goal Thursday
Rotowire
Duhaime scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-2 loss to Minnesota.
Duhaime netted the second goal of the game for Washington and did so just under two minutes after Matt Roy put the Capitals on the board. Overall, the 27-year-old Duhaime has nine goals, 19 points, 75 shots on net and 142 hits in 72 appearances this season. While Duhaime has played more of a bruiser role on Washington's fourth line, he has two goals in his last four outings and is heating up offensively. His value in fantasy is limited, averaging just 13 minutes of ice time per game. Duhaime needs two assists and one goal to set new career highs in those categories.

Capitals' Brandon Duhaime: Rare goal in win
Rotowire
Duhaime scored a goal in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Flyers.
He deflected a shot past Samuel Ersson early in the second period to put the Caps up 2-0. Duhaime has put up a career-best 18 points (eight goals, 10 assists) this season in 69 games, so his offense isn't his calling card. But Duhaime has also put up 140 hits, which clearly changes his value for leagues that count that category. He could provide a short-term boost in hits in the next while -- he's put up four, four-hit contests in his last nine outings.

Rotowire
Duhaime tallied a goal, an assist and two blocked shots during Saturday's 8-3 win over the Penguins.

Capitals' Brandon Duhaime: Picks up assist Saturday
Rotowire
Duhaime logged an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Predators.
Duhaime ended a six-game slump with the helper. The 27-year-old forward continues to see steady ice time in a bottom-six role, which hasn't led to consistent scoring chances. He's at 10 points, 51 shots on net, 81 hits, 39 blocked shots, 43 PIM and a plus-4 rating over 43 outings this season.

Rotowire
Duhaime has gone 11 games without a point dating back to Nov. 30.

Capitals' Brandon Duhaime: Bags apple Friday
Rotowire
Duhaime registered an assist, two shots and five hits during Friday's 5-4 overtime win over the Islanders.
Duhaime has quickly found a home on Washington's fourth line with four goals and eight points in just 23 games - matching his offensive output from last season in 39 fewer contests. The rugged winger has the potential to set new career highs if he can keep his production up, but Duhaime does not yet produce offense with enough consistency to garner much fantasy consideration.

Capitals' Brandon Duhaime: Scores, assists Monday
Rotowire
Duhaime scored a goal and added an assist in Monday's 6-2 win over Utah.
Duhaime posted his first multi-point effort this season, snapping a three-game streak in which he didn't crack the scoresheet. The winger has three goals and two assists across nine November outings, but his lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis limits his upside in most formats.

Capitals' Brandon Duhaime: Nets goal in defeat
Rotowire
Duhaime scored his second goal of the season in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes.
Duhaime put Washington up 2-1 at 19:49 of the first period after being set up by Nic Dowd. Duhaime offered three shots, one block and two hits in 13:44 of ice time. The left-shot forward has chipped in two goals and two assists across 11 outings in his first campaign with Washington, and he's filling a fourth-line role while seeing time on the penalty kill. Duhaime's career high in points is 17 from the 2021-22 campaign with Minnesota, so the 27-year-old doesn't offer much fantasy value outside of formats that reward non-scoring production.
