Pittsburgh Penguins forward Jason Zucker provided all of Pittsburgh's offensive production Friday night, scoring the team's only two goals in a loss to the Ducks. The first of Zucker's two goals came on the power play, giving him his second power-play goal in his ninth game with Pittsburgh. Now with seven total points with Pittsburgh and 36 points in 54 games on the season, Zucker is on pace to break the 50 point plateau for the second time in his career. A 19 percent shooting percentage this season is certainly helping his cause, which would be a career-high for Zucker, but going from shooting 18.7 percent in Minnesota to 20 percent with Pittsburgh hints at some level of sustainability in the short-term. Averaging fewer than two shots per game for the first full season of his career highlights how important that elevated shooting percentage is to Zucker's production, but playing on a line with Sidney Crosby should help mitigate some of that risk.--Russ Ivanac - RotoBaller
