Pageau had himself a game Saturday, notching three assists to goal along with a plus-3 rating and four hits in a 4-0 victory against Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
This was Pageau's first three-assist game on the year as the first line for Ottawa continues to click. Mark Stone and Zack Smith have been producing themselves as well, which takes Pageau's value up a notch as they build chemistry down the stretch. The 23-year-old has seven multi-point outings to date, including two in March so far, and now sits at 35 points on the season -- 16 above last year's total.

Pageau scored two goals -- one on a power play -- on seven shots and received two PIM in Tuesday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Pageau played hero in this one, finding twine on a power play with less than a second to go to send the game to overtime. The 23-year-old center saw 2:36 of ice time with a man advantage, notching his second tally on the year when up a skater. The former fourth-round pick was extremely aggressive -- recording his highest shot total to date -- and has now registered points in six straight. Pageau's fantasy stock is on the rise, especially with Kyle Turris (ankle) out for the foreseeable future.

Pageau will likely see more time on the power play with Kyle Turris (ankle) out indefinitely, Ken Warren of the Ottawa Citizen reports.
EDGE Analysis
Pageau averages just 31 seconds of power-play time on the season, tallying a lowly assist in minimal action. However, over the past two games, the 23-year-old center has seen a total of 3:19 of ice time with the man advantage, which could be the norm as Turris is without a timetable to return. The former fourth-round pick has an excellent chance to increase his 29 points on the year, boosting his fantasy value as a result.

Pageau tallied two helpers, three shots on goal and a plus-1 rating in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
While he hasn't found the net in his last eight games, Pageau has now pushed his point streak to four games, scoring five assists in that span. The 23-year-old has managed to piece together a respectable season here with 13 goals and 15 assists, both career highs. Pageau is certainly trending upward here and may be worth a look in some deeper formats.

Pageau recorded a helper in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Pageau has quietly had his best month of the season, recording nine points in 10 outings, including two straight with an assist. The 23-year-old surprisingly didn't have a hit -- he has 123 on the year -- but don't expect that to be a normal occurrence. The former fourth-round pick's value will elevate if he's able to keep this pace up as a contributor in the box score.

Pageau tallied a goal and two assists in Monday's win over the Lightning.
EDGE Analysis
Pageau has been on a roll of late, collecting at least one point in all four games since the All-Star break with two goals and five assists in that span. The 23-year-old has already topped both his goals and assists totals from last season, but his main value still lies in deeper formats that reward hits.

Pageau tallied his 12th goal, an assist, four shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-5 loss to Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
He also won 14 of 20 faceoffs while skating 19:48, the most of any Ottawa center in this one. The 23-year-old Pageau has seen his minutes rise significantly of late -- he's averaged 18:40 over the last six games versus 15:39 for the season -- but that can be chalked up almost entirely to the absence of Kyle Turris (ankle) from the lineup in recent days. Pageau hadn't done much over the course of Turris's first few games out of the lineup, and this one game doesn't count as a breakout. When Turris gets back out there, Pageau will surely see his ice time drop back to its more typical level.

Pageau busted out with a big game Tuesday night in Dallas, scoring two goals -- one of them shorthanded -- and adding an assist in a 7-4 victory.
EDGE Analysis
Well, that came out of nowhere. Pageau had been muddling along recently, with just one point in the prior seven games, and inconsistent ice time will likely mean he doesn't put on many repeats of this performance. He's useful in deeper leagues that count hits, although he didn't record any Tuesday -- the first time all season that's happened.

Pageau scored a shorthanded goal and fired four shots on goal in just 9:46 of ice time in Sunday's loss to Montreal.
EDGE Analysis
A productive night for the 22-year-old, who had been held off the scoresheet in the team's previous two games. While he's currently being used in a bottom-six role, Pageau scored 10 goals in 50 games last season and should continue to develop his game at the NHL level. The former 79-point-getter in the QMJHL has some great offensive talent, but with just 90 career NHL games under his belt, he's still struggling to find consistency. Pageau has potential, but don't expect any major leaps in production right now while he's being used in a third-line role.

Pageau is still looking to rack up a point after two regular season team wins.
EDGE Analysis
Besides two penalty minutes and one shot on goal - Pageau runs the rest of his stat sheet with zeros across the board. The fourth year center struggles with ice-time averaging only 15:05 minutes between the first two games of the season.
