Igor Chernyshov scored two goals and one assist on two shots in 16:23 in the Sharks' 5-4 overtime win over the Kings on Saturday, October 3. He finished plus-three with no hits or blocks.

The three-point performance is well above his recent averages of 0.71 points and 1.5 shots a night. His underlying play grades 68 out of 100 among forwards in shots, scoring chances and ice time, a read on how sustainable his scoring is.

What to do

• Hold Chernyshov in deeper formats but expect most nights to produce closer to 0.71 points with fewer than two shots.

• Stream him only if you need cheap production in very deep leagues and have room for his two games this week.

• Do not expect this shot efficiency to repeat given his 1.5 shots per game average and limited power-play role.
