Celebrini's three-point night came against his recent averages of 0.44 goals, 0.75 assists and 3.5 shots per game. His 23:07 of ice time Tuesday topped his recent 21:12 a night, and he plays on San Jose's first power-play unit with 3:40 of man-advantage time per game, the most among all Sharks skaters.

The Sharks have three games left this week, on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Celebrini's recent 1.19 points per game and first-unit power-play role make him a standard hold in fantasy, and Tuesday's performance reflects the value already priced into his roster spot. His process grade of 72 suggests his scoring sits on a sustainable foundation of volume and opportunity.

What to do

• Hold Celebrini as a center already producing 1.19 points per game in his recent averages.
