You might want to pickup Jonathan Huberdeau if he is still lingering on your waiver wire
Players are listed by position with ownership percentages and seven-day +/- according to ESPN leagues as of Tuesday.
Goalies
Michal Neuvirth (PHI): 18.6%, +11.2%
He has been getting a majority of the workload lately in net for the Flyers starting four of the last five games. He has played well in that span allowing five goals in the four starts but only had two wins. This season in 18 games played he has eight wins with a 2.79 GAA and a .893 save percentage.
Brian Elliott (CGY): 43.4%, +8.6%
Elliott strung together four straight starts posting three wins and 10 goals allowed in that span. He will occasionally split time with Chad Johnson but can be a viable fantasy option in deeper leagues. This season in 27 games he has 11 wins with a 2.85 GAA, and a .895 save percentage.
Thomas Greiss (NYI): 56.0%, +5.1%
Greiss has struggled lately allowing five goals in each of his last two starts against Toronto and Detroit. He is getting the majority of the starts in net for the Islanders, so he has the opportunity to help out fantasy rosters as part of a daily goalie rotation in the right matchup.
Forwards
Jonathan Huberdeau (FLA): 66.9%, +26.8%
Huberdeau made his season debut on February 3 and was able to score a goal on six shots. Resuming his place on the Panthers’ top line, he may have been a forgotten man in some leagues so take a look to see if he’s been snatched up. Last season in 76 games he scored 20 goals and 39 assists with a plus-17 rating.
Sebastian Aho (CAR): (CAR): 32.6%, +21.3%
He is having a very good rookie season scoring 16 goals and 15 assists in 51 games played. He is only 19 years old, so he is a good find for those in keeper or dynasty leagues. In his last five games, he has scored four goals with one assist.
Aleksander Barkov (FLA): 73.0%, +14.6%
He is another one of the walking wounded that has returned this past week for the Panthers after missing all of January with a back injury. This season in 37 games played he has nine goals and 19 assists with a plus-eight rating.
Defense
Andrei Markov (MON): 81.6%, +6.1%
Markov returned to the lineup after missing 18 games due to a groin injury. Even at the age of 38, he still has a good offensive game and can help out your fantasy team with assists just don’t expect many goals as he only has two on the season in 35 games.
Dmitry Orlov (WAS): 45.7%, +5.1%
Orlov is a solid defenseman for many fantasy rosters. In 53 games played this season, he has four goals and 22 assists, but his plus-25 rating is what can help your roster. This is especially so if you have guys on your roster with big negative ratings.
Cody Franson (BUF): 6.2%, +5%
Franson has three goals and 12 assists in 49 games played. He plays on the second defensive pairing and will see some power-play time, so he has an opportunity at an average of 18:51 minutes per game to help your fantasy team if you need solid blue line help.
