Leonard recorded a goal, picked up an assist, put two shots on net and recorded three hits in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to Dallas.
Leonard slid the primary helper on Boone Jenner's tally late in the second period before later bringing the Capitals within one goal with a tally of his own late in the third. Overall, the 21-year-old Leonard is up to five goals, 10 points, 37 shots on net and 26 hits over 14 outings this season. Tuesday's pair of points helped him snap his four-game scoreless skid. He's back on track to surpass the 20-goal, 45-point targets he posted across 75 regular-season outings in his rookie campaign. Leonard is a solid waiver-wire add in deep leagues that place a premium on players who deliver hits alongside offensive contributions.

Leonard tallied a goal, put two shots on net and put out two hits in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to Los Angeles.
Leonard opened the scoring Tuesday at the 9:25 mark of the first period. He's up to four goals, eight points, 22 shots on net and 16 hits across nine outings during his hot start to the 2026-27 season. The 21-year-old winger has recorded a point in seven of his nine appearances despite bouncing around the team's depth chart. If he can maintain even a fraction of his current scoring pace, he'll be on track to smash the 45-point total he posted in his rookie campaign. Leonard's steady offensive production makes him an excellent waiver-wire pickup, especially in leagues that value banger stats.

Leonard scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Devils.
Leonard had gone four games without a goal. The 21-year-old was also bumped down to the fourth line at even strength, but he retained a role with the man advantage, which is where he's scored two of his three goals this season. He's up to seven points, 19 shots on net, 14 hits and eight PIM across eight outings.

Leonard set up both Washington goals in a 4-2 loss to Carolina on Tuesday.
Leonard is on a four-game, five-point scoring streak that includes four assists and 10 shots. He has six points (two goals, four assists) in six games this season from his role on the third line, and he's averaging almost two minutes a game (1:57) on the power play. Leonard is one of the league's young stars, but he toils in one of, if not the deepest, forward corps in the NHL. Ice time will be spread around at even strength, but his power-play usage keeps his fantasy value high.

Leonard scored a power-play goal on two shots, doled out four hits and added two PIM in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Penguins.
Leonard's third-period tally restored a two-goal lead for the Capitals. The 21-year-old winger has two goals, eight shots on net, nine hits and a plus-1 rating over three contests this season. He was moved to the fourth line ahead of this game, but the depth of the Capitals' forward group -- along with Leonard's continued power-play usage -- should keep his offense at an acceptable level.

Leonard potted a goal on three shots and dished out two hits in Friday's 5-2 win over Carolina.
Leonard kicked off 2026-27 on the right foot with an even-strength tally late in the second period to give the Capitals a 5-1 lead. The 21-year-old right winger also opened the year on the team's top line alongside Dylan Strome and Alex Ovechkin, which should give him the opportunity to take another step forward this season. Across 75 regular-season games in 2025-26, he compiled 20 goals, 45 points, 153 shots on net and 125 hits. Even with the Caps adding to their forward group in the offseason, the eighth-overall selection from the 2023 NHL Entry Draft is expected to play a large role in 2026-27. Leonard is widely available across multiple fantasy platforms, and given his current spot in Washington's lineup and high ceiling, he's an excellent waiver-wire pickup in deep leagues.
