Top Nick Jensen News

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Bags two apples

    Jensen recorded two assists and three shots during Monday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

    Jensen had gone five games without hitting the scoresheet prior to Monday's outing. The 33-year-old has managed just one goal and 11 points in 65 appearances this season and his fantasy stock has receded as a result.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Scores first of season

    Jensen scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 6-0 win over Pittsburgh.

    Jensen extended the Caps' lead to 3-0 early in the second period, poking a rebound past Tristan Jarry for his first goal and ninth point in 59 games this season. The 33-year-old Jensen had just one point in 16 games coming into Thursday's contest. It's been a relatively quiet year offensively for Jensen after he posted a career-high five goals and 29 points last season.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Out Monday

    Jensen (lower body) will not be available Monday against the Senators, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Game-time call

    Jensen (lower body) will be a game-time decision Monday versus the Senators, according to Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post.

    Jensen left the morning skate after a brief appearance on the ice. According to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com, the 33-year-old defender crashed into the end boards during the first period of Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to Florida. However, Jensen was able to return for the start of the second period and finished the game. He has earned eight assists, 50 shots on goal and 85 blocked shots in 56 games this season. If Jensen can't play Monday, Ethan Bear is expected to draw back into the lineup.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Secures helper in narrow win

    Jensen recorded an assist in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Canadiens.

    Jensen almost assuredly will fail to improve on his prior season's point total for the first time in four years. Eight helpers represent his output through 53 games, but Jensen hasn't missed a single contest this season, and the no-frills defenseman has an outside chance at setting a new career high in blocked shots, having already posted 78 of those in 2023-24.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Snaps scoring drought

    Jensen registered an assist and added two shots during Thursday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Stars.

    The helper snapped a 12-game point drought for Jensen, who has struggled mightily with just three assists and a minus-2 rating in 23 games this season. The Capitals signed the 33-year-old defender to a three-year, $12.15 million contract extension in February, which indicates that they have plenty of faith in him, but Jensen is a negligible fantasy asset at the moment.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Three blocks in 500th career game

    Jensen played 19:24 and blocked three shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sabres.

    It was a big game for Jensen, as it was his 500th NHL game. However, he's fallen off the cliff after a 29-point season in 2022-23 and has just two assists in 15 contests this season. Jensen does get his body in lanes, though, so he will likely give you a 120-block, 100 PIM season, which could be helpful depending on your fantasy league's format.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Tallies helper

    Jensen registered an assist and added two shots while logging 15:39 of ice time during Sunday's 3-1 win over the Sharks.

    Jensen's assist on Dylan Strome's game-tying goal early in the third period snapped a seven-game scoring drought. The 33-year-old missed most of the preseason due to a personal matter but may finally be shaking the rust off following a long offseason. At any rate, more consistent production is needed from the Minnesota native before fantasy managers should take notice.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Scores twice in return

    Jensen, who missed Washington's previous two contests because of the injury, extended the Capitals' lead to 5-3 with eight seconds remaining in the second period, beating Daniil Tarasov with a wrist shot from the point. Jensen would score his second goal in the final frame, going coast-to-coast before burying a backhander. The 32-year-old defenseman is up to four goals and 22 assists through 67 games this season.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Considered game-time decision

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Not skating Saturday

    Jensen (upper body) didn't practice Saturday morning, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

    It appears that Jensen will miss a second game Sunday after leaving Wednesday's contest against Buffalo in the third period. The 32-year-old blueliner has two goals, 22 assists, and a minus-1 rating through 66 games this season. If Jensen is unavailable, Gabriel Carlsson would likely remain in the lineup in a bottom-pairing role.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Game-time decision Friday

    Jensen left Wednesday's game versus Buffalo in the third period and did not return. He has two goals, 22 assists, 113 blocked shots and 94 hits in 66 games this season. Should Jensen not play, look for Gabriel Carlsson to take his place on the blue line.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Leaves games in third period

    Jensen (undisclosed) left Wednesday's game versus the Sabres in the third period, Sammi Silber of Washington Hockey Now reports.

    Head coach Peter Laviolette didn't have an update on Jensen's status after the game. The 32-year-old blueliner missed three games recently with an upper-body injury, but it's unclear if this issue is related to his previous absence. He can be considered day-to-day ahead of Friday's game versus the Blues.
