Pelech notched an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Monday's 6-2 win over the Avalanche.
Pelech's first point of the year was a secondary helper on Brock Nelson's game-winning goal in the second period. Through three games, Pelech has added five shots on net, five hits and two blocked shots. The 30-year-old defenseman is seeing top-four minutes for the Islanders, but he has minimal power-play time. He's topped the 20-point mark in two of the previous three campaigns and can chip in 100-plus blocks, giving him some fantasy value in deep formats.
