Welcome to my weekly Fantasy Hockey Forecaster! Here you will 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)

Ryan Johansen (C, NSH) 39% owned. The Predators second line is going well. Alongside Eeli Tolvanen and Luke Kunin, Ryan has two goals and eight assists over his last nine games. Among those is four power play points and he has a handful of hits as well.

Ivan Barbashev (C Stl) 19% owned. Things could be worse than sitting on the Blues second line with Vladimir Tarasenko and Pavel Buchnevich. He has five goals and three assists over his last seven games including 2 ppp.

Jonathan Quick (G, LA) 47% owned. When he gets hot this season, he gets hot. Across his last three starts he has one shutout and two games with one goal allowed for three straight wins.

Top 3 Players Gone Cold (over 50% rostered)

Andrei Svechnikov (LW, Car) 99% owned. Still struggling with just two points (both goals) across his last 31 shots. He has just the two points in his last eight games.

Jack Hughes (C,LW NJ) 73% owned. Jack is still getting back into the swing of things with just three points (1G, 2A) across his last seven games, and one goal across his last nine shots.

Robin Lehner (G, Vgk) 99% owned. Robin has just one win across his last four starts. He has allowed 3+ goals in three of his last four starts for a 4.12 GAA and .853 SV%.
