Clayton Keller

Keller runs Utah's first power-play unit and ranks first among all club skaters in power-play time at 3:09 a night. He averages 18:59 of total ice time per game and produces 0.42 power-play points per contest. His six shots Saturday matched the volume that fuels his recent scoring pace of 1.15 points per game over a 224-game sample.

Utah plays three more times this week (Sat, Wed, Thu) and three next week, giving Keller plenty of opportunity to continue his reliable production. His process score and first-unit placement keep him in the hold category for standard-league managers, a fixture in lineups who does not require waiver attention but should remain active in all formats.

What to do

• Keep Clayton Keller active in all formats as a hold-category forward with three games left this week.

• Look for 1.15 points per game and strong shot volume from Keller over his remaining outings.

• Rely on his first-unit power-play role and 18:59 of ice time per night to maintain steady production.
