Ovechkin had an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 3-1 win over the Sabres

EDGE Analysis

His fifth assist of the 2016-17 campaign gives him five goals and six points -- along with 20 shots on goal -- in his last six games. While he's on pace to possibly hit the 50-goal mark for the fourth straight season, his overall ice time is down this year and he's averaging a career-low 3:53 in power-play TOI per game. Even so, he's a top fantasy performer in any format so keep playing him with confidence.
