Brady Tkachuk

Tkachuk's two-goal performance came with volume: seven shots in 21:29 is well above the 3.9 shots per game and 16:53 of ice time he averaged with the Senators. The power-play goal adds to his value, though every number here is from his time with Ottawa, before he joined Florida. His underlying play grades 100 out of 100 among forwards in shots, scoring chances and ice time, suggesting strong scoring sustainability.

With the Senators, Tkachuk averaged 0.37 goals, 0.50 assists and 3.9 shots per game over 203 games, along with 3:02 of power-play time a night and 2.7 hits per game. The Panthers play four times over the next week, with games on Saturday, Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday. His role with Florida is still taking shape, but Saturday's ice time and shot total are encouraging signs for fantasy managers who roster him.

What to do

• Hold Tkachuk and start him in all four of Florida's games over the next week.

• The seven shots and 21:29 suggest a significant offensive role with the Panthers, even if his recent averages reflect his time in Ottawa.

• His underlying play grade of 100 out of 100 among forwards points to sustainable scoring going forward.
