On every game day this
season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy managers
to stream or roster for the rest of the season. The recommended players and
goalies are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues and can be
selected in standard fantasy leagues or for daily fantasy games.
Cam Fowler, STL vs.
PIT (16% rostered)
The frustration
(difficulty?) with figuring out the Blues defenseman is that none of them
really stand out and it’s tough to say who will go on a scoring binge. Lately,
it’s been Fowler with five points in four games and been more productive than
Justin Faulk. This is a good matchup where the Blues should have no trouble
scoring goals.
Darren Raddysh, TB at
OTT (11% rostered)
Raddysh draws in and
out of the lineup depending on what the Lightning do, but if they dress 11
forwards, Raddysh will play. It’s actually impressive that with limited
minutes, Raddysh can put up points; he’s notched four assists in his past five
games despite playing over 16 minutes just once. In fantasy, however, it only
matters that he’s being used in offensive situations, which is a good thing. He
tends to be a high-risk, high-reward play due to his limited role.
Dante Fabbro, CBJ vs.
COL (2% rostered)
Perhaps the Jackets
can take advantage of a potentially tired Avs team that’s playing the second
game of a back-to-back. Their offense has come alive again recently and Fabbro
has scored six points in his past three games. It helps that he plays on the
first pair with Zach Werenski.
Jack
Thompson, SJ vs. EDM (0% rostered)
Tough matchup
because the Oilers will likely dominate puck possession, and not because they
will be tough to score on with key players missing and backup Calvin Pickard in
net. With the Sharks defense decimated by injuries, look for Thompson to
potentially quarterback PP2 if Shakir Mukhamadullin is unavailable following an
injury in their previous game. Thompson managed to notch an assist despite playing
just 15:40; he should get more minutes in his second game since getting called
up.
