Helpers in consecutive games Tavares logged an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flyers.

Impact Tavares' eight-game point streak ended Thursday, but he has bounced back with an assist in each of the last two contests. The 34-year-old center is up to 40 points in as many games this season (19 goals, 21 helpers). He's added 116 shots on net, 50 hits, 25 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating.
