Analysis:

It's a tough thing for fantasy owners to stomach when your guy's team goes out and scores six goals and he doesn't even pick up a measly assist, especially after seeing a whopping 20:52 worth of ice time, including over five minutes on the power play.  However, those owners who are familiar with Legwand know that he's a streaky scorer whose production tends to come in bunches.  Overall, he has a team-leading 25 points in 40 games so far this season, giving him a decent shot at cracking the 50-point mark for just the third time in his career.  Bottom line here is, he continues to see huge amounts of ice time for a second-line center, so as long as that continues, the points should come.  Stick with him.
