Stephenson notched two assists, three shots on goal, two PIM and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 7-0 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Stephenson earned his third multi-point effort of the season and his first since Oct. 14. The 29-year-old center helped out on a shorthanded goal by Mark Stone in the first period and a William Carrier tally at even strength in the second. Stephenson is up to two goals, eight assists, 14 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 12 contests, and he should remain productive in a second-line role.

Stephenson notched an assist in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
Stephenson snapped a three-game slump with the helper. He had two multi-point efforts over the first three contests of the campaign, but he's been limited to three assists across seven games since. The 29-year-old's overall play is too important to be demoted in the Vegas lineup, but he needs to score to maintain fantasy interest. He's at eight points, 10 shots on net, five hits, four blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating.

Stephenson notched an assist in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Stephenson has a helper in each of the last two games to keep his offense warm early in the season. The 29-year-old helped out on Mark Stone's third-period tally. Stephenson is up to two goals, five assists, seven shots on net, five hits and a plus-2 rating through six contests. He remains in a second-line role, though he's also on the top power-play unit for a Vegas team converting at a solid 27.3 percent rate with the man advantage.

Stephenson recorded a power-play assist in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Stephenson set up Jonathan Marchessault's first-period marker. Through five contests, Stephenson has collected two goals, four assists, seven shots on net and a plus-2 rating. Three of his helpers have come with the man advantage. The 29-year-old is locked in as the second-line center and should continue to provide reliable offense -- he had just three stretches last season of three or more games without a point.
