Svechnikov scored his sixth goal of the season on the power play in Sunday's 4-1 win over St. Louis.
Svechnikov tied the score at 1-1 in the opening frame after depositing a feed on the power play from Martin Necas. Svechnikov also had a team-high five shots on goal in 17:46 of ice time. The 24-year-old left-shot winger has been extremely consistent through the early portion of the season -- he's been held off the scoresheet only four times through 17 contests. Svechnikov ranks second on the team in points with six goals and 10 assists. He has yet to produce a point-per-game campaign in his seven-year NHL career, but he's flirting with that pace this season.
