Seven-game, 17-point streak Point picked up an assist Thursday in a 3-1 win over the Blues.
Impact Point's scoring streak stands at seven games and 17 points (five goals, 12 assists). He's the NHL's third-highest goal scorer, but he's really shown off his playmaking on this streak. Point had five assists in his first 18 games this season. It's not especially surprising, though -- his 35.6 shooting percentage is unsustainably high, and in fact, it's 16.6 percent above his career mark (19.0). Point remains on a career pace and is headed for his first triple-digit campaign.

Deposits empty-netter Point scored an empty-net goal on three shots and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
Impact For much of the game, it didn't look like the Lightning's top line would need to get involved. The Blue Jackets then scored three times in the third period, and Point answered with the empty-netter, extending his point streak to six games (five goals, 11 assists). The 28-year-old center is cruising at a career-best pace with 21 goals, 16 assists, 59 shots on net and a plus-6 rating over 25 appearances. He's also shooting 35.6 percent, and while he's been over 20 percent in the last two seasons, he could regress a bit as the campaign progresses.

Reaches 20-goal mark Point scored a goal on four shots and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Kraken.
Impact Point became the third player to reach the 20-goal mark this season when he put the Lightning ahead 2-1 at 13:21 of the first period. The center is on a remarkable run with four goals and 11 assists over his last five games, and going back farther, he has scored 12 goals and added 11 helpers over 12 contests since he returned from a lower-body injury. Point has a total of 36 points (16 on the power play), 56 shots on net and a plus-6 rating through 24 appearances this season. He's on pace to challenge for his first 100-point campaign.

Racks up four points in win Point scored a goal on three shots and added three assists in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Flames.
Impact Point's goal and two of his helpers came on the power play. This was his third four-point effort in the last four games, a span in which he has three goals and 10 assists. The 28-year-old center is up to 19 tallies, 15 assists, 52 shots on net and a plus-5 rating over 23 appearances this season. Point can be just as good as linemate Jake Guentzel and offers a strong complement to his other winger, Nikita Kucherov, and that's been abundantly clear in recent games.

Impact Point couldn't repeat the back-to-back four-point performances he delivered in the wins over San Jose and Vancouver on Dec. 5 and Dec. 8, respectively. However, the 28-year-old playmaker extended his solid run of play by cracking the scoresheet for the eighth time across his last 10 games, with 17 points (10 goals, seven assists) in that span. Point has 30 points in only 22 appearances in 2024-25.

Another four-point game Point produced two goals and two assists in 22:07 of ice time Sunday in a 4-2 win over Vancouver.
Impact Point has now registered back-to-back four-point games to start December. The right-shot center has six helpers over his last two games, which is one more than the five he generated through the first two months of the campaign. The 28-year-old is a model of consistency, as he's been held off the scoresheet on just four occasions through 21 appearances. Point leads Tampa Bay in goals with 18 (10 on the power play), and he's added 11 assists and a plus-5 rating.

Second four-assist game in NHL Point had four assists in an 8-1 win over the Sharks on Thursday.
Impact What an outburst. It was his second four-assist game in the NHL. Point had gone 0-for-November from a playmaking perspective, but he had 10 goals, including six power-play goals, in 9 games last month. Overall, Point has 16 goals, nine assists and 46 shots in 20 games this season, and those snipes tie him with a trio of players for third in the NHL.
