Novak scored a goal on five shots and added an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Novak tied the game early in the third period and set up Rickard Rakell's go-ahead goal less than nine minutes later.

Novak scored a goal on three shots and added a power-play assist in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Canadiens.
The helper was the 100th of Novak's NHL career. While Bryan Rust (lower body) is out, Novak has filled in on the top line, which gives him a bit more fantasy value. He hasn't taken full advantage yet, but this outing could be the spark he needs. Through 14 contests, Novak has four goals, six helpers, 22 shots on net, nine blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating. Five of his assists have come with the man advantage.

Novak supplied two assists, including one on the power play, in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Novak snapped a four-game point drought with this performance. The 29-year-old center continues to feature on the Penguins' second line, a spot that should lead to more productive stretches. He has three goals, four assists, 15 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over nine appearances this season. He's earned three of his helpers on the power play.

Novak scored a goal on three shots and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Capitals.
Novak has had a strong start to the year while centering the second line. He has three goals, two assists, eight shots on net, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over four appearances. Novak has topped the 40-point mark in three of the previous four years, so he's definitely worth considering in fantasy, though his contributions will be mostly limited to points and shots.
