Lightning try to keep win streak going, visit the Sharks

The Tampa Bay Lightning are looking to keep their six-game win streak going when they visit the San Jose Sharks

Four-game, five-point streak Point scored twice Thursday in a 5-3 win over the Kings.

Impact The goals extended Point's scoring streak to four games and five points, including three snipes. He has 13 points (six goals, seven assists) in his last 11 games, which is much more Point-like than his 11 points in his first 22 games. And his five shots Thursday were a great sign -- he had six over his previous four games. Point's 12.2 shooting percentage is like an anchor right now, compared to his 18.5 career average and his 22.2 mark from last season. His "luck" appears to be improving, and your window on getting him in a buy-low deal is closing fast.

Lights lamp in overtime win Point scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over the Ducks.

Impact Point has two goals and two assists over his last five games. It's not quite the heater he was on earlier in December, but he's getting back to being steady on offense after a poor November ended with an undisclosed injury that cost him seven contests. For the season, Point is at seven goals, 15 assists, 69 shots on net, 13 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating over 32 appearances, putting him at risk of finishing under a point-per-game pace for the first time since 2021-22.

Eight points in last six games Point scored a goal Saturday in a 6-4 win over Carolina.

Impact He put the Bolts up 3-2 early in the second period when he redirected a pass into an open net behind Pyotr Kochetkov. Point has eight points (three goals, five assists) over his past six games. His 9.5 shooting percentage remains abysmal relative to his 18.4 career average, so expect a goal run soon enough. Point has really started to warm up -- he had 11 points in his first 22 games prior to this run. The window to get him in trade is closing.

Two more points Monday Point collected two assists in Monday's 5-2 loss to the Panthers.

Impact The 29-year-old center appears to be back in form after a rough start to the season, and then a seven-game absence due to an undisclosed injury. Point was blanked in his return Dec. 8 against the Leafs, but since then he's gotten onto the scoresheet in four straight games, racking up two goals and seven points during his longest point streak so far in 2025-26.

Back-to-back two-point games Point scored a goal and added an assist Thursday in an 8-4 win over New Jersey.

Impact Point's goal early in the third period gave the Lightning a 7-3 lead. The star center has had a difficult season, but he has put up back-to-back two-point games this week (two goals, two assists). Point started the season with a three-point effort against the Sens on opening night, and he hadn't put up more than a single point until Tuesday night. This could be a good sign, and you might still be able to leverage his future out of a frustrated manager. Point is far better than the 15 points he has put up in 24 games.

Two-point night in win Point scored a goal and added an assist in a 6-1 win over the Canadiens on Tuesday.

Impact Point's goal opened the game early in first period, putting to an end the Lightning's goal drought at 130:43. The team had been shut out its last two games. He drove around the Habs' defender inside the blue line and went in alone on Jakub Dobes, knifing it over the netminder's right shoulder from the right circle. The goal was Point's fourth of the season and first in 10 games (two assists). It came in his second game back from missing seven with an undisclosed injury. His production (four goals and nine assists in 23 games) has been fantasy hockey's biggest disappointment this season. Point's pedigree -- he has averaged 46 goals and 89 points over each of the last three seasons -- means a rebound is coming.

Peppers net in return to lineup Point (undisclosed) fired four shots on net and added one hit and a minus-1 rating in Monday's 2-0 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Impact After missing the prior seven games, Point returned to the lineup Monday and slotted right back onto the top power-play unit while tying for the team lead in shots on net. It's been a rough season so far for the 29-year-old center, who has just three goals and 11 points in 22 games, but the time off may have allowed him to get re-focused in addition to getting healthy.

Returning to action Monday Point (undisclosed) will return to the lineup for Monday's game against the Maple Leafs, Luke Fox of Sportsnet reports.

Impact Point missed the last seven games due to injury, but he's slated to return to action in a top-line role on the road Monday. The 29-year-old had gotten off to a somewhat slow start to the 2025-26 campaign prior to his absence, recording just three goals, eight assists, eight blocked shots, three hits and six PIM while averaging 18:52 of ice time over 21 appearances.

DECEMBER 8, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Saturday Point (undisclosed) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Islanders, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Impact Point has missed six consecutive games. He has struggled this season with only three goals and eight assists in 21 contests, a far cry from the last three seasons when he combined for 262 points in 240 regular-season games.
