Brayden Yager put up 8 points (2 G, 6 A) in 2 games this weekend, while Lethbridge only scored 10 goals as a team.
Hurricanes as a team have now scored 55 goals in the 16 games since trading for Yager, for an average of 3.4 goals per game — a little better production than their 3.2 goals per game average before Yager arrived.
And Yager is now up to 29 points in those 16 games, which means he’s got a goal or assist in 52.7% of the team’s goals in that stretch. That’s exceptional.
Yager’s production is even more impressive over the last 3 games — he has 11 points (5 G, 6 A) while Lethbridge has scored only 14 goals in total. So Yager has been on the scoresheet for 78.6% of the team’s goals in the last 3 games.
His offensive production is carrying the team.
