Tampa Bay Lightning DFS SPIN
Brayden Point found the back of the net in Tampa Bay’s 5-1 loss to Minnesota on Wednesday. Point’s goal came at 13:37 of the second period and was scored during a Lightning power play. He has 22 goals and 39 points in 37 contests in 2022-23, including 13 points with the man advantage. The 26-year-old is on a six-game point streak.
Winnipeg Jets DFS SPIN
Sam Gagner scored a goal on one shot, fueling the Jets to a 3-2 win over Calgary on Tuesday. Gagner tipped home a shot from Ville Heinola to score the eventual game-winning goal with 5:40 left to play in the third period. This goal snaps Gagner’s five-game pointless streak and gives him seven goals on the season. Gagner should continue to see time with the second power-play unit.
