Three-game, four-point streak Point had two assists in a 6-2 win over Columbus on Tuesday.

Impact Point is on a three-game, four-point scoring streak (one goal, three assists), and he has nine shots in that span. He has points in eight of his last nine games (four goals, seven assists, and 27 shots). Point has been been super consistent in terms of production, but this is just his second multi-point game since Dec. 29. Still, we'll take 32 goals and 64 points (145 shots) in 56 games any day.

Lights the lamp Monday Point tallied a goal while taking four shots on net in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Point struck the back of the net in the early stages of Monday's third period off a feed from defenseman Darren Raddysh. The 28-year-old Point is up to 32 goals, 62 points and 143 shots on net in 55 games this season. Point has been an extremely steady contributor offensively for Tampa Bay with 10 points in his last 10 games. This stretch of play helped raise Point to become the second player on the Lightning with 30-plus goals and assists alongside Brandon Hagel. The 90-point mark this season isn't out of the question for Point if he can have a few multi-point performances down the stretch. Regardless, he remains a strong play in all fantasy formats as Tampa looks to solidify its spot as a playoff team in the Atlantic.

Steady yet unspectacular production Point picked up an assist Saturday in a 3-1 win over the Capitals.

Impact It came on the power play. Point has 31 goals and 30 assists (129 shots) in 54 games this season. Those are strong numbers, but he has just one multi-point outing in his last 25 games. It was a three-point game against Ottawa on Feb. 6. Point has 19 points (eight goals, 11 assists) in those 25 games. We don't know if there's anything amiss from an injury perspective, but it bears watching. In the 10 games prior to this run, Point had 21 points (seven goals, 14 assists), including five multi-point games.

Dishes assist in win Point registered an assist and took two shots on net in Sunday's 4-1 victory over the Kraken.

Impact Point was the lone helper on Nikita Kucherov's go-ahead goal in the third period. The 28-year-old Point is up to 28 helpers, 59 points and 131 shots on target in 51 appearances this year. The Lightning's top-line center brought his point streak up to four games where he has six points. Playing with Team Canada during the 4 Nations Face-Off seems to have helped Point stay ready to contribute to Tampa Bay's hopes in the playoff race. With 31 goals, he is tied for third-most in the league and trails only Edmonton's Leon Draisaitl (42) and Toronto's William Nylander (33). Point has strong value in all fantasy formats for the rest of the season while skating alongside one of the league's best playmakers in Kucherov.

His next action will be for Team Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off.

Nets 30th goal of season Point scored a goal in a 6-3 win over the Red Wings on Saturday.

Impact Point has two goals, two assists and nine shots in his last two games. Saturday's snipe was his 30th goal of the season, which puts him top-five in the NHL. Point has been a top-10 NHL sniper a few times and a top-five guy once (2022-23). He's converting on 23.6 percent of his shots this season, which is above his career 18.8 percent. But Point has delivered on more than 20 percent of his shots in each of his last three seasons, so this uptick seems real.
