Jean-Gabriel Pageau is riding a hot-streak

Jean-Gabriel Pageau is riding a four-game goal streak and five-game point streak entering Monday's game against the Hurricanes. The centerman is up to 12 points (eight goals, four assists) in 16 games as a result of his recent success.
Fantasy Impact:
Pageau's hot stretch has ran parallel to Ottawa's recent 4-2-0 run. His linemates Nick Paul and Connor Brown have been producing and it's starting to look like a palatable fantasy situation for the time being. Pageau hasn't ever been a major offensive contributor, but he's always been able to contribute in other areas, as he has this season with 40 shots, 25 hits, 18 blocks and 9 penalty minutes. However, the most impressive (and unexpected) figure is his NHL-leading +16 rating. Considering he plays for the Ottawa Senators, that's nothing short of remarkable. With Ottawa being one of just three teams with four games scheduled this week, Pageau could be worth an add in deeper leagues.
