Pots shorthanded winner Saturday Greig scored a shorthanded goal and added an even-strength assist in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Islanders.

Impact The first-period shortie proved to be the game-winner, and all the offensive support Linus Ullmark would need. Greig has three multi-point efforts in the last six games, carrying him to a career-high 35 points in 75 contests, and if the 23-year-old can score one more goal over the Senators' final two regular-season games, it'll establish a new career high of 14 as well.

Two-point effort Thursday Greig produced a goal and an assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over Buffalo.

Impact After helping to set up Dylan Cozens for Ottawa's first goal late in the first period, Greig potted an empty-netter late in the third. It was Greig's first multi-point performance since Jan. 20, but he's closing in on career highs with 12 goals and 31 points through 70 games on the season.

First point in six games Greig scored a goal Saturday in a 5-2 win over Toronto.

Impact Greig made it 5-2 after taking a pass in the slot and going forehand to backhand before ripping a shot glove side. It was Greig's first point in six games and just his third (two goals, one assist) in his last 16 games. He continues to tease with potential, and his second-line role affords him opportunity. But we haven't seen a jump in Greig's offensive game... yet.

Pots goal in win Monday Greig scored a goal in Monday's 2-0 win over the Canucks.

Impact Greig broke the deadlock for Ottawa midway through the second period with a wrister, and that was his 10th goal of the season. The 23-year-old snapped a nine-game goalless skid with this tally, but with just 10 goals and 17 assists in 58 contests, he's not producing enough to be a reliable fantasy option in most formats -- even if he has a top-six role in the Senators' lineup.
