RISERS
Trevor Zegras, C/LW, Anaheim Ducks (OWNED: 68%)
The Ducks forward is currently riding a modest five-game point streak where he’s tallied five goals and nine points. On top of that, he’s racked up 13 points (seven goals, six assists) in his past 10 outings. Suffice it is to say, it’s time to jump back in on the dude that brought the Michigan back to relevancy.
Rickard Rakell, LW/RW, Pittsburgh Penguins (OWNED: 67%)
Skating alongside Jason Zucker and Evgeni Malkin, the dual eligible winger has notched at least a point in four of five (three goals, three assists) and six of his past nine. Rakell’s very streaky, so ride him while he’s hot.
Seth Jones, D, Chicago Blackhawks (OWNED: 64%)
Despite the fact that his four-game point streak (two goals, six assists) came to an end on Sunday night against the Kings, the Blackhawks defender still has 11 points (three goals, eight assists) in his past nine outings. Chicago may be destined for a lottery pick, but indisputably, Jones is worth taking a flier on right now.
Pavel Zacha, C/LW/RW (OWNED: 24%)
Over his past seven outings, the tri-eligible forward has tallied three goals and five points skating predominantly on a line with David Krejci and David Pastrnak. With the Bruins slated to play four times this week, Zacha’s worth streaming.
Anton Lundell, C, Florida Panthers (OWNED: 23%)
In seven games since joining Aleksander Barkov and Sam Reinhart on Florida’s top line, Lundell has tallied three goals, six points and 24 shots on goal. Furthermore, at some point over the next few weeks, he should gain LW eligibility, which will undoubtedly only help to strengthen his surging fantasy stock. Keep tabs.
Victor Olofsson, RW, Buffalo Sabres (OWNED: 11%)
If you’re looking for goal scoring, Victor GOALofsson is your guy. No seriously, he’s doing his best Cy Young impression so far this season with 21 goals and six helpers. The Sabres winger has potted four goals in his past three games, six in six, and eight in nine. Moral of the story: He’s been red-hot.
FALLERS
Matt Murray, G, Toronto Maple Leafs (OWNED: 71%)
Over his past 10 appearances, the 28-year-old has registered a pedestrian 0.888 save-percentage. Additionally, he’s allowed four goals or more in four of his past seven starts. Over and above all that, Ilya Samsonov has been exceptional lately and that should lead to an uptick in playing time over the next little while. Be mindful.
Nick Suzuki, C, Montreal Canadiens (OWNED: 59%)
Even though he picked up an assist in Saturday night’s OT win against Toronto, with Cole Caufield done for the season, there’s no question Suzuki’s fantasy stock will be negatively impacted moving forward. That’s a tough blow. Look to move on from Suzuki as soon as possible.
Anders Lee, LW, New York Islanders (OWNED: 52%)
If things don’t turn around soon for the Isles captain, don’t be afraid to cut bait. From a positive standpoint, with an assist in Saturday night’s 5-2 loss to Carolina, Lee mercifully ended a five-game pointless drought. That said, he’s notched just two points (one goal, one assist) in the last nine contests. Woof. Monitor closely.
Pheonix Copley, G, Los Angeles Kings (OWNED: 47%)
After being yanked in back-to-back games (six goals on 20 shots), Copley responded on Sunday night making 18 stops in a 2-1 victory over the lowly Blackhawks. That said, the body of work over the past month suggests the 31-year-old is starting to turn back into a pumpkin. Since January 1st, Copley’s tallied a 3.45 goals-against average and 0.875 save-percentage. Move on.
