Eriksson Ek recorded a hat trick and won 19 of 25 faceoffs in Tuesday's 6-5 overtime win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Two of Eriksson Ek's three goals came on the power play, including the game-winner in overtime. The 24-year-old was held off the scoresheet in the Wild's first two games, but Tuesday's performance showed why general manager Bill Guerin shelled out $42 million over eight years to keep the Swede in Minnesota. As long as he's filling a top-line role, he'll have some appeal in most fantasy formats.
