Extends point streak to four games Picault assisted once, took two shots (one on target), created three chances, sent three crosses (one accurate) and intercepted once in the 2-1 loss to Minnesota United on Saturday...

Impact Picault is in some of the best form in the league right now. The forward is now on a four-point game streak, accumulating three goals and one assist in that time frame.

Yes Picault has been scoring at a high clip recently, but the fact that he has scored on four of his five attempts on net is extremely concerning and it shows negative regression coming sooner rather than later. Otherwise, the rest of his production is excellent and he truly is one of the best options in the league right now at his position.
