Ottawa Senators DFS SPIN
Brady Tkachuk scored the game-winning goal in overtime and added three power-play assists in Wednesday’s 5-4 win over the Penguins. It took Tkachuk only 25 seconds to finish it off in the extra session. His game-winner was Ottawa’s only even-strength goal of the evening, as all four of the Senators’ goals in regulation came on the power play, with Tkachuk helping out on three of those. This was Tkachuk’s first multi-point game since Dec. 17, but despite the recent slowdown, he’s still averaging more than a point per game (46 in 44).
Pittsburgh Penguins DFS SPIN
Sidney Crosby dished out three assists — two on the power play — in Wednesday’s 5-4 overtime loss to Ottawa. After producing only two goals and four assists over his previous 10 games, Crosby got back to his usual elite production in this one. The star center’s up to 52 points through 44 games. Crosby will have to pick up the pace just a bit over the second half of the season to reach 100 points for the seventh time in his illustrious career.
