Simmonds sniped his eighth and ninth goals of the season -- one of which came on the power play -- in Monday's 4-3 win over St. Louis.

EDGE Analysis

What a great way to head into the holiday break for Simmonds, who has amassed 19 points in 34 games this season. With a previous career high of 116 PIM, his 82 this season are actually well over-and-above his usual standard of transgression, while his 78 shots on goal aren't bad either. Look for the 27-year-old to pick up the pace offensively as the newly-appointed line of Simmonds, Jakub Voracek and Sean Couturier have been clicking of late.
