Three points in Wednesday's win Tavares scored a power-play goal and added two even-strength assists in Wednesday's 7-3 win over the Capitals.
Impact After helping to set up tallies by William Nylander in the second period and Bobby McMann in the third, Tavares capped the scoring on the night by flipping a backhand past Charlie Lindgren from in close. It's the third straight multi-point performance for Tavares, and over the last 14 games the 33-year-old has churned out eight goals and 14 points.

Three-point effort in loss Tavares registered one goal and two assists in the 4-3 road loss to the Flyers on Tuesday.
Impact After being down 3-0 going into the third period, Tavares tried to will his team to a comeback victory by contributing on all three of the Maple Leafs goals. The 33-year old captain scored the final goal of the game, his 22nd of the season, but they could not get another to tie it up. This was Tavares' second multi-point game in a row, scoring 2 goals and adding 3 assists over that span. While his point production might be lower this season - he has 51 points in 65 games - his recent performance shows he's still capable of putting up points.

Heart and soul of team Tavares scored a goal and added an assist Saturday in a 5-4 shootout loss to Carolina.
Impact JT may not have great foot speed, but he managed to break in all alone on Pyotr Kochetkov after taking a stretch pass from T.J. Brodie, and he went roof. Tavares also fed Nicholas Robertson with a perfect one-timer set-up in the middle frame. Yes, his scoring pace has slowed this season, and yes, it was his first multi-point game in 11 games. But Tavares was the heart and soul of the Leafs on Saturday. and that's how to quiet some of the detractors in Toronto.

Offense slowing, but getting goals Tavares scored a goal in a 3-2 win over Montreal on Saturday.
Impact Tavares scored the go-ahead goal with 6:46 remaining in the third period. He punched the puck over the goal line from the left edge of the crease after battling for position with Tanner Pearson. It was Tavares' 20th goal of the season, which marks the 14th time in 15 seasons that he's hit that plateau. He came out of the blocks fast after the All-Star break (five points in two games). But Tavares' game has tailed off offensively since with six points, including five goals, in his last 13 games. The goals are great, but at his current pace, he'll deliver the lowest point total of his career outside the COVID-19 shortened season and an injury year earlier on the island.

Scores late goal in loss Tavares tallied late in the game to get Toronto on the board, but it wasn't enough to get a win as the Bruins took a 4-1 victory Monday.
Impact That's Tavares' 19th goal of the season. He doesn't look like he'll come anywhere close to the 36-goal, 80-point campaign he posted last season. He's tied with Morgan Rielly for fourth on the team in points, but he's a long way back from Austen Matthews, William Nylander, and Mitch Marner. It may be time to think of the team as having three dynamic forwards instead of four, at least until Tavares proves otherwise.
