Preds' Volchenkov Contributes Rare Point
Volchenkov recorded a rare point in Tuesday's win over the Lightning, taking credit on a secondary assist in Seth Jones' second-period marker.Volchenkov has only five points on the season, all of which have been assists. In fact, he hasn't scored a goal since Mar. 19, 2013, amounting to an 108-game drought. Volchenkov does a decent enough job of piling up hits, but that's usually a category that can be easily addressed by a player on the wavier wire that offers more offensive upside to boot.
