Umberger has rare hat trick: As the hats and caps rained down, R.J. Umberger smiled, pumped his fist and savored the moment. Umberger scored three goals for his second career hat trick to lead Columbus past the St. Louis Blues 5-2 on Monday night, ending the Blue Jackets' five-game losing skid. "It's pretty neat. I don't have them very often," Umberger said. "Someone like [teammate Rick] Nash, it happens more. You have that night every once in a while -- it just seems like the puck goes in. Sometimes it just pays off, for your hard work." After 10 days of frustration, the Blue Jackets felt as if a burden had been lifted. "Whoever put that first empty-netter in, it just felt like a big relief," Umberger said, referring to Antoine Vermette's goal that made it 4-2 in the final minute. "[It was] some insurance. We didn't want to be at 3-2 battling in the last minute in our zone." Umberger picked up his third goal on an empty-netter in the final seconds. He also had an assist and finished at plus-4.

Fantasy Analysis
Umberger has five goals, three assists and a plus-7 rating in his last six games. He finished November with three multi-goal games. Umberger has definitely developed into a nice secondary scoring option for the Blue Jackets, but as he admits, you can't expect a lot of hat tricks from him. Despite the big game, Umberger remains a low-end Fantasy option.
