Brayden Schenn posts three points in Islanders win over Kings

Brayden Schenn recorded one goal and two assists on two shots in 19:41 as the Islanders beat the Kings 5-2 on Thursday, November 12. He finished plus-one with one hit.

The three-point night stands well above his recent averages of 0.48 points, 1.6 shots and 16:49 a night. His underlying play grades 30 out of 100 among forwards for shots, scoring chances and ice time, a measure of how sustainable his scoring is. He plays second power-play minutes (2:05 a night, sixth among all Islanders skaters).

Player by player

Brayden Schenn

Schenn's 19:41 Thursday topped his recent ice time by nearly three minutes, and his three points more than tripled his average scoring rate. The two shots fell short of his 1.6 per game, and his power-play role remains limited to the second unit. The high point total on modest shot volume reflects strong finishing rather than a large workload.

His underlying play score of 30 out of 100 among forwards suggests this level of production will be difficult to repeat. He averages 0.20 goals and 0.29 assists per game, with 0.11 power-play points and 2.0 hits. The Islanders have two games left this week, Saturday and Tuesday. Schenn offers limited fantasy upside given the weak process grade and secondary power-play role.

What to do

• Stream Schenn only in the deepest formats where his two remaining games this week and modest point-per-game averages fill a gap.

• Do not expect Thursday's three-point outing to become the norm given his underlying play grade of 30 out of 100.

• Look elsewhere for power-play production, as Schenn plays second-unit minutes and averages just 0.11 power-play points per game.
