Transactions
Brett Sutter (F)Calgary- Assigned to Abbotsford of the AHL.
Colten Teubert (D) Los Angeles-Activated from injured reserve and assigned to Manchester of the AHL.
Nolan Yonkman (D) Phoenix- Recalled from San Antonio of the AHL.
Garrett Stafford (D) Phoenix- Assigned to San Antonio of the AHL.
Marc-Antoine Pouliot (F) Tampa Bay-Assigned to Norfolk of the AHL.
Hot
Mike Richards (F) Philadelphia- Richards started the season slowly, but has been on a tear as of late. He has now picked up 5 goals in just 3 games, and has a point in 9 of his last 10 games played. It is very unlikely that Richards would be available in your league, but if you are lucky enough to have him be sure to keep starting him consistently.
Cold
Mike Ribeiro (F) Dallas-Ribeiro has now been held without a goal for the past 15 games. This is the longest he has been held without a goal in his entire 11 years in the NHL, so it is really becoming hard to justify giving him a spot on your roster right now.
Recommended Pickup
Mikhail Grabovski (F) Toronto- It is hard to find anything positive going on in Leaf Land right now, but Grabovski definitely deserves a look. While the team continues to struggle to put points in the win column, Grabovski has managed to pick up a goal in 3 of Toronto's last four games. He deserves a look for anyone looking for a little extra offensive punch, even if this streak doesn't last that much longer.
