Perbix's ice time has dropped from 20:03 a week ago (March 9). He has just one assist in his last 13 games, and while he may have a decent fantasy future, Perbix isn't a viable option for a contending fantasy squad at this point.

Lightning's Nick Perbix: Three helpers in Tuesday's win
Perbix notched three assists while adding three shots, three hits, a blocked shot and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Ducks.
It was a big performance for the rookie blueliner, who also dished three helpers in the final game before the All-Star break but has no other points in his last 10 games. Perbix's lack of power-play time limits his fantasy ceiling, but he continues to offer glimpses of what he could do in a bigger role. On the season, the 24-year-old has four goals and 18 points through 45 games.
