Patrik Laine Snaps Seven-Game Drought
7 years agoWinnipeg Jets right winger Patrik Laine broke a seven-game pointless streak with a power-play goal against the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday night. Laine has 44 goals and 69 points on the season and is still in the heat of the race for the Rocket Richard trophy -- only two goals behind Alex Ovechkin. Laine has 234 shots on the year while shooting at 18.8 percent and he leads the league in power-play goals with 20. The Jets have two games left against Chicago and Calgary, both of whom average three goals against per game. Laine is an elite sniper and at this rate, it's only a matter of time until those numbers pay dividends. He should be rolling in all formats and keep an eye out for him during your playoff drafts as well.
