Outlook Gavin McKenna

Gavin McKenna brings PP1 upside into home matchup with Canadiens

Rookie forward Gavin McKenna and the Maple Leafs host the Montreal Canadiens tonight at Scotiabank Arena in a projected higher-scoring environment. Toronto sits as a slight home underdog against a tough Montreal squad, likely facing Jacob Fowler (unconfirmed) in goal. McKenna has been productive with four points across his last five outings and sits among the rookie goal-scoring leaders. Even though his 5-on-5 role has recently settled on the fourth line alongside Colton Sissons and Vinni Lettieri, McKenna retains significant offensive juice through his prime spot on the top power-play unit alongside Auston Matthews and William Nylander.

Our data projects McKenna for ~0.5–1.0 point, ~1–2 shots on goal, and a solid power-play scoring chance, totaling 2.3 fantasy points tonight. Because his even-strength ice time is capped, his peripherals remain low, though his special-teams deployment creates genuine scoring upside. Looking at the schedule, tonight begins a back-to-back set with one game remaining tomorrow in New Jersey to conclude a three-game week projected for 3.2 total fantasy points. While fantasy start rates have fallen to 17 percent, his power-play exposure keeps him viable in deeper formats. Today’s action: Stream.
