Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Off to career start
Nikolaj Ehlers picked up two assists in a 6-3 win over the Rangers on Tuesday.Ehlers has 20 points, including 11 assists, in 16 games this season, and he's on pace to obliterate his career high of 64 points from 2016-17. His 20.9 shooting percentage is too high -- his career mark is 11.9 percent, so there will be some regression in his sniping. Ehlers remains an elite fantasy option right now, but you might want to consider selling high in a trade if you don't think his current 103-point pace is sustainable.
