Artem Anisimov doesn't binge in the offensive zone too often, so let's savor this scoring surge.
The structurally sound centerman - limited to 42 points on a line with Patrick Kane and Artemi Panarin last year - has produced almost a quarter of his output from a season ago on a current six-game scoring streak.
He has five goals and 10 points during this career-best streak, prolonged by the overtime winner he deposited versus the New Jersey Devils on Friday night:

Chicago's extra point was its ninth since Anisimov initiated this run, quieting concerns after an 0-2 start.
