Danton Heinen Pockets First Goal With New Team
5 years agoAnaheim Ducks forward Danton Heinen picked up his second point in as many games since being traded from Boston, kicking off the scoring Friday night with a goal late in the first period against the Penguins. Heinen led all Anaheim forwards with 20:48 minutes of ice time Friday night while skating on the second line and second power-play unit. Heinen had seen his point totals and shooting percentage drop in Boston over this season and last, so a change in scenery and increased usage could be exactly what he needs to get his career back on track. At his best Heinen put up 47 points in 77 games, which is fair to expect as a ceiling for him until he proves otherwise. There is no need to roster Heinen at this point, but keep him in mind as a streaming option for weeks where the Ducks have a favorable schedule.
