Top 3 Waiver Wire Adds (under 50% rostered)
- Casey Mittelstadt, Buffalo Sabers (19% rostered) — A highly touted prospect a few years ago, Mittelstadt has fallen with many Sabres fans into an untrusted space. Well, he has four goals in the last six games.
- Chandler Stephenson, Las Vegas Golden Knights (31% rostered) — Currently on the Golden Knights’ top line, Stephenson has three goals and six point in his last six games.
- Dustin Tokarski, Sabers (3% rostered) — Tokarski isn’t winning but he’s playing well and now has a 2.36 GAA with a .931 SV% over the last week.
- Jake Oettinger, Dallas Stars (30% rostered) — A bonus pick this week. Oettinger is not starting as much as Anton but it’s a favorable week with a back to back set of games in favorable matchups.
Top 3 Players Gone Cold (over 50% rostered)
- Matthew Tkachuk, Calgary Flames (97% rostered) — Tkachuk has just two points (both assists) across his last six games where he is -1 across that time.
- Claude Giroux, Philadelphia Flyers (99% rostered) — Giroux has just two points (both assists) across his last five games. He’s hardely shooting on goal these days, he has just eight shots TOTAL across his last eight games.
- John Gibson, Anaheim Ducks (55% rostered) — Gibson is winless across four of his last five starts allowing four goals twice.
