FantasyDraft NHL: Tuesday Values

FantasyDraft NHL: Tuesday Values

This article is part of our FantasyDraft NHL series.

GOALIE

ANA at VAN ($16,700): The Canucks are 2-8-0 in their last 10 games and 12-18-6 at home. You've got to like the Ducks chances of picking up a win, even on the road. Vancouver has also only managed 2.59 goals per game, while Anaheim has a 2.59 GAA.

CENTER

Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, EDM vs. CLM ($12,100): Since returning from injury, and getting moved to Connor McDavid's wing, Nugent-Hopkins has 12 points in 12 games. The Blues Jackets have a good GAA overall, but on the road their GAA is 3.14. Columbus also has the 22nd-ranked penalty kill. In those aforementioned 12 games The Nuge has averaged 2:14 per game with the extra man.

Kyle Turris, NAS vs. MIN ($10,100): Turris has started 64.5 percent of his shifts in the offensive zone, highest on the Predators. Perhaps that favorable positioning has helped him in tallying 14 points in his last 17 contests. Meanwhile, the Wild have a 3.44 GAA on the road, bottom five in the NHL.

WING

Cam Atkinson, CLM at EDM (13,100) Atkinson has a four-game point streak, and on top of that in his last eight contests he's notched 10 points and 36 shots. The Oilers have a 3.18 GAA and the 29th-ranked penalty kill. Though Atkinson only has seven power-play points in 60 games, he's averaged 2:43 per game with the extra man. That gives him potential to finally find some power-play success, especially in this matchup.

Alexander Radulov, DAL vs. PHI ($12,700): Radulov has notched 26 goals and 39 assists in 76 games, including 22 on the power play. With injuries hitting their goalies, the Flyers have a 3.69 GAA in 13 games in March. They also have the 27th-ranked penalty kill, which the Russian winger is obviously capable of taking advantage of.

Corey Perry, ANA at VAN ($11,900): Perry has enjoyed a nice run of play recently, as he's tallied 13 points in his last 13 games. The Canucks have a 3.21 GAA, fourth-highest in the NHL. However, since the All-Star break that number has climbed a bit to 3.25, and in that time they've allowed 33.1 shots on net per contest as well.

DEFENSEMEN

P.K. Subban, NAS vs. MIN ($10,200): Yes, Subban hasn't scored a goal in a while, but he still has a three-game point streak, and four points in his last five contests. Plus, he still has 15 goals in 75 games despite his recent drought. Considering the Wild have a 3.44 road GAA, perhaps this will be the game the dry spell ends. Even if it's not, Subban has proven he can still contribute even when the goals aren't going in.

Hampus Lindholm, ANA at VAN ($9,000): Lindholm is one-upping Subban, as he has a four-game point streak, and that includes two goals. He now has 12 goals and 17 assists in 63 games, not to mention eight points with the extra man. The Canucks are one of those teams that have been worse at home, as they have a 3.47 GAA in their own arena.
