Tarasenko had the game-winning goal against Columbus, while Schenn had the game-winner in Thursday’s 1-0 overtime win over the Lightning.

O’Reilly’s having the kind of season where he makes everyone around him look better, but he’s quick to credit Schenn for the line’s instant chemistry.

“He’s a playmaker. He’s physical. He has great speed,” O’Reilly said. “I think he’s just kinda that Swiss Army knife guy.

“We’ve been able to generate a lot just from the way we’ve been working as a line. We forecheck hard. We get pucks back. I feel like all three of us can make plays and we’re just moving and working. Myself, it’s nice to have another center out there, too.”

In that sense, Schenn’s presence on the wing takes some pressure off O’Reilly, because Schenn also can work low and grind out puck possession and create chances. But truth be told, Schenn would rather be playing center.

“It’s an adjustment,” Schenn said. “It’s a change. But when you play with a good centerman like O’Reilly, it makes it easy on you. I still feel like the natural position for me is center. But at the end of the day, I’ll do what it takes to win hockey games and ultimately make the playoffs with this hockey team.”
