News: 1 day agoNugent-Hopkins scored twice Saturday in a 3-2 win over Buffalo.
Spin: He tied the game in the second period and scored the game-winner in the third frame. Nugent-Hopkins took a backdoor feed in the right faceoff circle and snapped the puck past James Reimer's glove. Nugent-Hopkins could struggle to reach the 50-point mark this season but has four goals and three assists in his last six games, including three multi-point efforts. He posted only three multi-point performances in his previous 42 appearances. RNH is better than what he's showing, so he could be a solid second-half boost to any fantasy manager's lineup if he can maintain some momentum.
