Welcome to my weekly Fantasy Hockey Forecaster! In here you’ll find:

Top 3 waiver wire adds (among all players under 50% rostered at ESPN)
Top 3 players who have gone “cold”
Each team’s schedule ranking based on opponent’s points allowed, where the #1 ranked team plays teams allowing the most points so far this season.

Top 3 Waiver Wire Adds (under 50% rostered)

• Victor Olofsson (RW, LW, Buff) 25% owned. He’s on a torrid start with four goals and four assists across seven games. Buffalo as a whole is off to a strong start at 4-2, beating Vancouver, Tampa Bay and Montreal.
• Troy Terry (RW, Ana) 7% owned. The 2^nd line for the Ducks – Sam Steel, Ryan Getzlaf and Troy Terry has been yielding some production. Troy has a point in his last six straight games, topping out at eight points across that time span. He has three goals and two power play points.
• Craig Anderson (G, SJ) 25% owned. Things in Buffalo are going well. Anderson has four wins, a GAA of 1.98 and a .939 sv %.

Top 3 Players Gone Cold (over 50% rostered)

• Auston Matthews (C, Tor) 100% owned. Through five games he has two registered points. He has just one goal on 22 shots and no power play points. He will get going but it’s a slow start.
• Patrice Bergeron (C, Bos) 98% owned. Through six games he has three assists and has yet to score across 14 shots thus far this year.
• Kevin Lankinen (G, Chi) 50% owned. There isn’t much to be optimistic about in Chicago these days. Seven consecutive losses, Kevin and Marc Andre are struggling, and the more information that has emerged about these controversies makes it worse and worse for the Blackhawks.
