Keith Yandle Finding His Groove
5 years agoFlorida Panthers defenseman Keith Yandle spearheaded a late come-from-behind victory against the Boston Bruins on Tuesday - registering three points as his team surged to a 5-4 shootout win. Down 4-0 in the final frame, Yandle contributed two primary assists and managed to tie the game on a rebound opportunity with just 1:39 remaining in the contest. Despite registering just three points in his initial eight games out of the gate, the 33-year-old has rattled back with nine points (one goal, eight assists) over his past 10 contests. The Massachusetts native's production is tied closely to his magical work on the man advantage (39 power-play points last season) and with Florida now clicking at 24.6% rate, Yandle should be revered as a top-20 blueliner in most fantasy formats. He'll take the ice next against the Jets on Thursday.
