Tyler Seguin posts two points against Avalanche
Fantasy hockey: Seguin had a goal and an assist with seven shots Tuesday, but his underlying play remains poor and the two points are not actionable.
By Fantasy Roundup Staff · October 14, 2026 · Updated October 14, 2026
Tyler Seguin scored one goal and one assist with seven shots in 17:17 of ice time as Dallas fell to Colorado 3-2 on Tuesday, October 13. His goal came on the power play, and he finished plus-one with two hits.
The two-point night looks solid on the surface, but Seguin's underlying play grades 2 out of 100 among forwards in shots, scoring chances and ice time. That makes his scoring extremely difficult to sustain, and the performance is a hold against his recent averages of 0.69 points and 1.7 shots per game.

Tyler Seguin
Seguin's seven shots stand out as well above his 1.7 per game, and the power-play goal contributes to his 0.11 power-play points per game. He plays on the second unit and averages 2:03 of power-play time per game, ranking seventh among all Dallas skaters. His total ice time of 17:17 exceeded his 16:23 average, a sign of increased deployment in this contest.
The problem is that his underlying play tells a different story. A process grade of 2 out of 100 among forwards means he generates very little quality work in shots, scoring chances and ice time compared to the league. That makes nights like Tuesday hard to repeat. With Dallas playing three more games this week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Saturday), Seguin remains a hold in standard formats, but managers should not expect this output to continue.
What to do
• Hold Seguin in standard leagues, as his underlying metrics suggest the two-point game is not repeatable.
• Do not add Seguin off waivers based on this performance, given his poor process grade.
• Keep Seguin in your lineup for Dallas's three remaining games this week, but temper expectations.
