Stepan's three-point (two goals, one assist) effort helped rout the Ducks 7-2 on Sunday. That's a big collective sigh for Stepan and company who hadn't scored more than two goals in a game in almost two weeks. As for the slumping Stepan, it's his first point in 12 tilts and first goal in 15 games. Although the 24-year-old has been alarmingly inconsistent since the beginning of the calendar year, perhaps this can get him moving in the right direction again. The Minnesota native is a plus-19 with 46 points in 57 games played.
