Newhook tallied twice in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

The pair of tallies bring Newhook to 12 goals and 24 points through 43 games this season.

Still, he's taking fewer shots per game than he has in any other season when he was an NHL regular. It's hard to know what to expect from Newhook.
