RISERS
Jake DeBrusk, LW/RW, Boston Bruins (OWNED: 67%)
In his first outing since the Winter Classic on Saturday night, the dual-eligible winger tallied a goal and an assist in Boston’s 6-2 beatdown of the New York Islanders. DeBrusk, who missed 17 games with a fractured fibula, returned to his top-line garden seat alongside Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron. Grab him immediately.
Ryan O’Reilly, C, Toronto Maple Leafs (OWNED: 53%)
The 32-year-old tallied an assist and a total of three shots goal over his first two games as a Maple Leaf over the weekend. Early on, in addition to his PP2 deployment, O’Reilly’s been centering a line with John Tavares and Mitch Marner. Furthermore, the lack of exposure to PP1 could hurt O’Reilly’s fantasy value in the long run. That said, it would be foolish to not at least take a flier on him right now.
Dillon Dube, LW/RW, Calgary Flames (OWNED: 22%)
In the past few weeks, Darryl Sutter has found lightning in a bottle with the Dube, Elias Lindholm, Tyler Toffoli trio. Over his past four outings, Dube has four goals and seven points. While this pace is likely unsustainable, the dual-eligible winger is worthy of a stream right now —at the very least.
Robby Fabbri, LW/RW, Detroit Red Wings (OWNED: 12%)
The winger’s up to three goals and 10 points over a five-game point streak and has notched four straight multi-point efforts. Recently, he’s been skating on a line with Michael Rasmussen and Andrew Copp. Ride the hot hand.
Joonas Korpisalo, G, Columbus Blue Jackets (OWNED: 9%)
In his past five appearances, the 28-year-old is 2-2-1 with a 2.81 goals-against and 0.920 save-percentage. Additionally, he’s 5-4-2 in 11 decisions since January 1st. For what it’s worth, Columbus could be a sneaky team down the stretch in terms of spoilers. They’re better than their record would indicate. Stream o’clock.
SELLERS
Miro Heiskanen, D, Dallas Stars (OWNED: 95%)
Over his past nine outings, the stud blue liner has tallied just two measly points (two assists). Even with that, he’s still producing at a 62-point clip for the surging Stars. Heiskanen’s rapidly ascending into the next tier of fantasy defenders. Get ahead of the curve.
Joe Pavelski, C/RW, Dallas Stars (OWNED: 94%)
For starters, the veteran’s currently mired in a nasty 13-game goalless drought. Additionally, he’s tallied just three helpers in the past eight contests. No need to panic, he’s just in a cold stretch. Contemplate a buy low.
Darcy Kuemper, G, Washington Capitals (OWNED: 94%)
Now’s a good time to sell high on Darcy Kuemper. After a brilliant first half, the 32-year-old is 6-8-1 with a 2.97 goals-against average and 0.904 save-percentage so far in 2023. On top of that, Alex Ovechkin remains out indefinitely, which won’t help matters either for the struggling Capitals.
Brad Marchand, LW, Boston Bruins (OWNED: 94%)
If you’re looking to buy-low on Marchand, you better act quickly, especially now that Jake DeBrusk is back for the B’s. After a five-game point drought, the feisty winger has a goal and an assist over the past two games. Be mindful: A hot streak is coming.
Justin Faulk, D, St. Louis Blues (OWNED: 77%)
In general, with the max exodus of bodies in St. Louis, it could be a good time to start selling off on some of their stock. Mercifully, Faulk ended a seven-game point drought on Sunday with an assist in St. Louis’ lopsided 6-2 loss to Ottawa. Sell, or cut bait. No need to wait around here.
