Blackhawks' Artemi Panarin: Sinks Islanders on Friday

Panarin scored the Blackhawks' only regulation goal and the game-winning tally in the shootout Friday against the Islanders.

Analysis:

While there are some peaks and valleys in Panarin's game-to-game production, he's now up to 20 goals and 57 points through 64 games and well on his way to another banner campaign. Since entering the league, his 2.94 points per 60 minutes rank seventh among all skaters with at least 2,500 minutes, and Panarin should be viewed as an elite scorer.
