STUDS
The Stud: Macklin Celebrini
Forcing his way into the Hart conversation; nine goals and 18 helpers during his 13-game point streak.
The Pivot: Sidney Crosby
Three goals and six assists in his last five games; on pace for yet another 90-point season.

The Low-Owned: Clayton Keller
Nice spot for Keller and the Mammoth; he’s got a goal (14 shots) and seven helpers in his last five.
The Value: Justin Sourdif
Still hot and still under the radar; four goals and four assists in his last five.
STACKS
The Full: UTA (Keller-Guenther-Schmaltz-Cooley)
Utah is at home and is the largest favorite on the slate; Columbus is a bit challenged defensively.
The Mini: PIT (Crosby-Rakell)
Five goals and nine assists between them in the last five; Bruins went off yesterday and should be a little bit spent, and Rakell should get some more looks from Crosby with Rust out.
