Logan Stankoven Racks Up Three Assists Versus Predators
Dallas Stars right wing Logan Stankoven bagged a hat trick of assists in Thursday's 4-3 win over Nashville. He tallied assists on all of Dallas's first three goals, including a power-play marker. The 21-year-old became the second rookie in franchise history to record three points in a season opener. Stankoven did the damage in just 12:29 of action. He started on the top line with Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz but was only used for around 10 minutes during even-strength play. Partly due to the limited playing time, Stankoven failed to register a single shot on goal. However, it was still an impressive performance from the talented forward, who looks to have a very bright future in the league.
Logan Stankoven Ends Scoring Drought With Two Goals

Stankoven opened the scoring late in the first period and finished it off with an empty netter in the third. The goals were the first two of the 21-year-old's playoff career, and they came at a great time. Stankoven is a name to watch in fantasy next year and should already be owned in dynasty formats.
Dallas Stars forward Logan Stankoven continued his dream start in the NHL with another goal on Thursday. The 21-year-old completed a three-goal first period for the team in a 4-1 win. Stankoven finished his NHL debut against Carolina on Feb. 24 without a point, but he has since then scored in all three outings, adding one assist. The former second-round pick has had no issues translating his AHL productivity over to the big league, and fantasy managers should consider picking him up, with Dallas entering a very favorable set of matchups. There are back-to-back clashes with San Jose coming up, as well as a contest against Anaheim.
