What It Means:

Saad gave the Blue Jackets their first lead of the game in the second period, and he also added an empty-netter to ice the game. The 23-year-old extends his goal scoring streak to three games in the process. He's found the back of the net four times during that span.

Saad has nine goals and 13 points in 18 games this season. He's currently on pace to score 41 goals this season. His previous career-high is 23. We project him for 21 goals and 20 assists the rest of the way, which would give him a new career-best point total of 55.
