Saad recorded his highest point total in one game this year Tuesday in San Jose.

EDGE Analysis

Saad responded positively to the new month as he gathered the rebound off a Brandon Dubinsky shot and poked it into the back of the net during the first period, and he later added an assist on Ryan Murray's goal in the second. The two points mark Saad's highest point total of the season, while his two goals in his last two games are his first since mid-October. The 23-year-old has another chance to continue his recent success Thursday against Los Angeles.
