Pacioretty picked up a second-period assist on the game's opening goal and scored into an empty net Tuesday in a 3-1 win over Montreal. He also went plus-2, pushing his already-career-high rating to a career-higher plus-12 for the year. Pacioretty's scoring pace is a little off from the last few years, thanks in part to him having gone scoreless over the prior three games, but he's a good bet to end up with 30-plus goals and around 60 points when all's said and done.
