Overtime hero in Saturday's win Chernyshov scored twice, dished an assist and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Kings.

Impact Chernyshov has opened the year in a third-line role, but that didn't slow him down Saturday. He cashed in the Sharks' fourth goal, and he also scored their fifth on a feed from Macklin Celebrini. Chernyshov would fit in just fine on the top line, but head coach Ryan Warsofsky looks to be spreading the youth throughout the lineup for now. Chernyshov is worth keeping an eye on -- Saturday's performance won't be a one-off.

Impact Chernyshov looked NHL ready in a 28-game sample over two stints as a rookie last year. He produced 19 points, 46 shots on net and a plus-2 rating while averaging 15:03 of ice time per game. The 20-year-old winger will still need to earn a top-six job and power-play time, but he could be a good depth pick or waiver-wire addition in fantasy if he can produce at a similar pace over a full campaign.
