FHF Key
Flash Sale = Players that are on strong hot streaks that you will need to add immediately before they are claimed by another team.
Bargain Bin = Similar to the Flash Sale category, except these players will not be as highly demanded. They will be claimed relatively quickly, but are not completely known to all teams.
Line Scorers = Players that are currently very low in ownership percentage and includes less-skilled players who are currently playing on productive lines, and have proved/might prove worthy of adding. As every studious fantasy owner knows, line combinations are everything.
Flash Sale
Andrew Hammond – G, 40% owned (LW: 20%) – Ottawa Senators
Devan Dubnyk who? The ‘Hamburgler’ is on fire for the Sens, and is single-handedly leading them to a potential wild card spot. In seven games, the 27-year old first-year player has earned an outstanding 6-0-1 record, 1.35 GAA and .957 SP. Even with the return of Craig Anderson from IR, the team will likely continue to roll with Hammond for the time being.
Mike Hoffman – C/LW, 25% owned (LW: 16%) – Ottawa Senators
The Senators have been on fire lately, and Hoffman is a big reason why, with three goals and six points in his past five games. This gives him 23 goals and 17 assists on the year, with a plus-24 rating and 124 shots
Anders Lee – C/LW, 50% owned (LW: 48%) – New York Islanders
Anders Lee continues to impress with three goals and four points in his last five games. He now has 22 goals and 35 points this season, in addition to his plus-14 rating and 157 shots. He’s still on the first line with John Tavares.
Chris Stewart – RW, 13% owned (LW: 9%) – Minnesota Wild
Stewart is no longer a Sabre. Now on the Wild’s second line, he will have a much better chance to succeed. He notched an assist in his first game, his 26th point of the season. His linemates are Mikko Koivu and Sean Bergenheim, while his power play linemates are Mikael Granlund and Nino Niederreiter.
Bargain Bin
Mike Cammalleri – C/LW, 47% owned (LW: 41%) – New Jersey Devils
In seven games since February 20th, Cammalleri has scored six goals and nine points, while recording five or more shots three times in that span. He now has 24 goals and 34 points on the year, including 118 shots on net.
Michael Del Zotto – D, 30% owned (LW: 23%) – Philadelphia Flyers
Since February 15th (ten games), the Philly defenseman has scored four goals and eight points, giving him 26 points. He shoots often (98) and racks up hits as well (125).
Mark Scheifele – C, 15% owned – Winnipeg Jets
Schiefele has two goals and five points in his last five games, including three power play points and 13 points. This gives him 10 goals and 36 points. With injuries to key members of the Jets team, Scheifele will continue to see increased opportunities.
Reilly Smith – RW, 18% owned – Boston Bruins
Smith has been a streaky player all season, but he is currently riding an extended hot streak that has lasted eight games. In that time he has accumulated two goals and eight points, including a power play assist.
