Ivan Barbashev News: Three-point effort in win

Barbashev scored a goal, dished two assists, added three hits and went plus-4 in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flames.

Head coach John Tortorella has already shaken up the Golden Knights' top six, putting Barbashev on a line with Mitch Marner instead of Jack Eichel. That paid off Thursday, as Barbashev earned his second three-point effort of the season. The winger is in a groove with three goals and six assists over his last seven outings. He's up to a total of 22 tallies, 34 helpers, 125 shots on net, 131 hits and a plus-15 rating over 76 appearances. Barbashev is a versatile forward who checks well and can move around the lineup, so he should be a good fit in a Tortorella system.
