Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Notches two points in blowout win
Protas tallied a goal and an assist while logging 15:19 of ice time during Saturday's 7-2 win over the Blue Jackets.
Protas has three consecutive multi-point outings and has managed 11 points in 10 games to start the season. The 6-foot-6, 225-pound winger has flourished since being promoted to the top line alongside Alex Ovechkin and Dylan Strome.

Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Racks up three points in win
Protas scored a goal on three shots, added two assists and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.
Protas helped out on both of Alex Ovechkin's first-period tallies, then added a goal of his own in the second that stood as the game-winner. This was Protas' first multi-point effort of the campaign. The 23-year-old is seeing top-line usage at even strength, though he's not yet routinely in the power-play mix. He has two goals, five assists, 16 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over eight contests. Protas doesn't play with an edge, but he's got potential as a scoring-only option for fantasy managers.

Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Pockets helper
Protas notched an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.
Protas helped out on a Nic Dowd tally in the second period. Through six contests this season, Protas has a goal, three assists, nine shots on net and a plus-1 rating. The 23-year-old has played on the top line at even strength, but his scoring upside is likely to remain somewhat capped since he isn't receiving regular power-play usage.

Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Finds twine in win
Protas scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Golden Knights.
Protas was bumped up to the top line at even strength, logging 15:12 of ice time Tuesday compared to 10:28 in Saturday's season opener. The 23-year-old forward cashed in with the game-winning goal at 5:16 of the second period, set up by linemate Alex Ovechkin. It's likely the Capitals' lines aren't yet settled, but it's a good sign Protas is in the mix for top-six minutes, though he would likely benefit further from a power-play role. The forward broke out with 29 points in 78 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Shortie stands as winner
Protas scored a shorthanded goal Saturday in a 2-0 win over the Bruins.
Protas was credited with the game-winner in Saturday's preseason finale. He won a faceoff in the left circle, and the puck ricocheted off the linesman's skate into the low slot, where he jumped on it and lifted a shot over Brandon Bussi's glove. Protas projects to be a third-line winger in Washington, which would limit his fantasy upside.

The 23-year-old forward took a step up in 2023-24 with 29 points, 113 shots on net and 49 blocked shots over 78 regular-season outings. Protas should continue to fill a full-time NHL role in 2024-25 after signing a five-year extension with the Capitals back in January.

Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Notches two points
Protas registered two assists and two blocked shots during Saturday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Protas is enjoying his promotion to the top line alongside Alex Ovechkin and Hendrix Lapierre. The 6-foot-6 forward has nine points in his last 10 games, and Protas is tied for third on the team with 27 even-strength points. A lack of opportunity on the power play will make it tough for Protas to maintain the recent success.

Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Inks extension
Protas signed a five-year, $16.875 million contract extension on Friday.
Protas was a pending restricted free agent heading into the summer, but in the midst of a career-best 18 points in 42 games, the Capitals wasted no time in locking the hulking winger to a long-term deal. The 23-year-old will need to continue to improve his offensive production in order to live up to his $3.375 million annual salary, but Protas owns an intriguing blend of size and skill and will be a key member of Washington's offense for years to come.

Capitals' Aliaksei Protas: Running cold
Protas has no points and a minus-5 rating over his last seven games.
Protas has been shuffled down to the third line alongside Connor McMichael and Tom Wilson in an attempt to rekindle his offensive game. The return of Max Pacioretty and Sonny Milano (upper body) could hamper the 23-year-old Protas' efforts to lock down a top-six role in the final half of the 2022-23 season despite establishing a career high of 18 points in the first 40 games. The hulking forward could become a solid fantasy asset in the future, but Protas will need to become a more consistent offensive producer before achieving that title.

Protas helped out on Alex Ovechkin's goal in the second period. This was Protas' fifth helper over the last six games, and he ends December with nine points across 14 outings. The 22-year-old has stepped up into a middle-six role in what's looking like a bit of a breakout season. He's at three goals, 15 assists, 42 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 33 contests overall while finding chemistry with Anthony Mantha and Connor McMichael on the second line.
