What It Means:

He has already set new personal highs with 10 goals and 15 assists for 25 points after 46 games. Namestnikov posted nine goals and 16 points in 43 appearances with the Lightning last season. He has been much more successful in 2015-'16 thanks to his increased role on the team. Spending plenty of time alongside Steven Stamkos hasn't hurt either.

We project him to record another 20 points -- eight goals and 10 assists -- over the final 36 games. Namestnikov's Corsi For Percentage (56.7) and Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength (3.1) are career-best marks for a season in which he's played at least 10 games.
