Jake Evans logs assist in OT win over Rangers
by Bruno Mulé | Canadiens Correspondent | Mon, Jan 20th 3:08pm EST
Jake Evans picked up an assist on Patrik Laine’s game-winning goal in the Canadiens' 5-4 overtime victory against the Rangers on Sunday. The helper marked Evans’ first point in January, breaking an eight-game drought.
Fantasy Impact:
Evans has struggled offensively since a strong December that saw him post 12 points in 14 games. With 24 points, 45 shots, 63 hits, and a plus-8 rating through 46 appearances, Evans provides occasional depth scoring and multi-category contributions in deeper fantasy formats. However, his role on the fourth line limits his upside, and fantasy managers should temper expectations for a repeat of his December production. He remains more of a situational option in leagues that value peripheral stats.
