Center Patrik Berglund may only be owned in three percent of fantasy leagues but the former first round pick is finally putting it together.
Analysis: Berglund has tallied 7 goals in his last eleven games and added 4 assists and 23 shots on goal in that span. Berglund’s ice time is up, his power play minutes are up, he’s shooting the puck more and he’s winning more faceoffs. Berglund has always been a goal scoring center going back to his days on Vasteras IK in the SEL. He’s still widely available so you have time to assess your roster before you pull the trigger on Berglund.
Projection: Berglund should score about 9 goals and 9 assists with over 2 SOG per game in his remaining twenty-seven games. Berglund’s last hot streak was his rookie year in 2008 where he put up 47 points as a twenty year old. He’s a great add for deep leagues.
