Morgan Geekie scored one goal and added two assists on one shot in 12:45 Thursday, October 8, as Boston beat Utah 6-1. One of his goals came on the power play.
The three points look good in the box score, but they came without more shots or ice time than usual. His underlying play grades 44 out of 100 among forwards (shots, scoring chances and ice time), a read on how sustainable his scoring is.

Player by player
Morgan Geekie
Geekie's recent averages sit at 0.45 goals, 0.35 assists and 2.1 shots a night in 17:19 of ice time. He sees 2:46 of power-play time a game, third among all Boston skaters on that unit. The one shot and 12:45 of ice time Thursday fell well short of those marks, making the three points hard to bank on repeating.
Boston plays three times this week (Thursday, Saturday, Tuesday). Geekie remains a hold in deeper formats where his 0.80 points per game and first-unit power-play role have value, but managers should not chase Thursday's line given the lack of volume underneath it.
What to do
• Hold Morgan Geekie in deeper leagues for his power-play role and 0.80 points per game.
• Do not stream Geekie based on Thursday's three points, which came on just one shot.
• Keep expectations modest given his middling underlying play (44th percentile among forwards).
