EDGE Analysis

The 30-year-old Swede had a fantastic month of January with four goals and 18 points in 15 games, including a 10-game point streak. He continues to lead the Caps in points and is second only to Connor McDavid for the league lead in assists. Make sure he's a fixture in your lineup going forward.
