Blake Wheeler Leads Jets Past Kings
5 years agoWinnipeg Jets forward Blake Wheeler registered a pair of goals and added an assist as his team rolled over the visiting Los Angeles Kings 6-3 on Tuesday night. The 33-year-old stuffed the scoresheet in his 17:46 of time on ice, also posting a plus-two rating, five shots and one hit in the victory. After a slow first two months of the season, the Jets captain has racked up 36 points over his past 34 contests and has seemingly retained his value as a top-25 fantasy asset in most formats. Checking in with 54 points (20 goals, 34 assists), 19 power-play points, 161 shots and 94 hits though 61 games, Wheeler is an absolute must-start option each night he suits up. He'll look to keep producing versus the Senators on Tuesday.
