Fantasy hockey: His two goals and two assists were a big night from a winger already averaging 1.27 points per game, a rate this performance was priced into.

David Pastrnak put up two goals and two assists on three shots in 16:37 Thursday, October 22 as the Bruins beat the Predators 6-0. He finished plus-4 with no power-play goals in the rout.

The four-point outing was a big line from a winger already averaging 1.27 points per game in his recent averages, so his fantasy value was priced in before this game. His underlying play grades 83 out of 100 among forwards for shots, scoring chances and ice time, a read on how sustainable his scoring is.

David Pastrnak

Pastrnak averages 0.45 goals and 0.82 assists per game in his recent sample, with 3.7 shots and 0.39 power-play points per outing. He runs 20:35 a night at even strength and 3:32 on the power play, where he ranks first among all Bruins skaters. His 0.9 hits and 0.3 blocks per game mean his category coverage stays narrow.

The performance fits comfortably within his established rate, so managers rostering him need no adjustment. Boston has three games left this week, on Thursday, Saturday and Tuesday. He remains a hold at his recent averages, not a trade piece or pickup target based on this game alone.

What to do

• Keep Pastrnak active in all formats, as his four-point night matches his established scoring rate.

• Do not chase this performance in trade talks, as his value was already priced in before Thursday.

• Take advantage of Boston's three remaining games this week by keeping him in your lineup.
