The trials and tribulations of the National Hockey League are of great interest to us. You know we love individual players and how they can help out our fantasy team but the ownership and general manager struggles are where it is at. The Arizona Coyotes are going through a crazy rebuild and GM’s like Jarmo Kekkaleinen are investing heavily in overseas scouting. That is the kind of level we dive into here so we can keep you abreast of all the best deals.

The Washington Capitals are cruising their way to the playoffs. Much of it is on the back of their netminder Ilya Samsonov. It does not hurt having a legendary goal scorer on your team to get you over the hump.
Timo Meier is not exactly a secret anymore. He has been churning out points like nobodies business. You would do well to take Tomas Hertl as well. This duo is deadly.
Should you go for Dougie Hamilton or Darnell Nurse? There is a big difference in price and Dougie is cooling off a bit. We are going after Nurse today just so we can afford a bigger name on offense.

How is Leon Draisaitl under $9,000? He has been out performing Connor McDavid for a few weeks.now bit his price remains depressed. It is crazy to think that a superstar can be had for a discount but here we are.
He is expensive so we will go after some discount centers next. Alexander Wennberg and Brayden Schenn are great contenders. Schenn has been underperforming but his game is picking back up. Wennberg and the Seattle Kraken are desperate for a win and the might find it tonight in Columbus.
As you round out defensemen, go low. And by low we mean gritty and tough. Mario Ferraro and Jamie Drysdale are leader material who are climbing up the ranks. They will be captains each on their respective teams within a few years. Mark our words.
Our little pocket of grab-bag wingers today includes Michael Bunting, Anthony Beauvillier (OUT AS OF 1:10 PST today) and Jesse Puljujarvi. This is the cream of the crop when it comes to the guys who are secondary to elite. Amazing prices for the position they are in and the ceiling they get you.
Still on the winger train but maybe in your utility spot you should stick Alexander Kerfoot or Martin Necas. Similar to the group beforehand they have access to some of the best players in the game and are no slouches themselves.
The weekend is upon us and it it time to get down. Get out to the club or your local pub and let the week go. We are on Twitter (@FantasyDFSX) if that catches your fancy and are on our way out the door. Peace.
