High Salary C

John Tavares – New York Islanders ($8,200): Tavares has been a disappointment this season, at least to his standards. He has 15 goals and 16 assists for 31 points and 131 shots on goal in 42 games for the Islanders. Perhaps he is finally starting to turn the corner with points in two of his last three outings. He also has 12 shots on goal in his last three games. He goes against the Senators tonight. He averages 3.2 fantasy hockey points per game.

Brock Nelson – New York Islanders ($6,000): Nelson has 18 goals and 10 assists for 28 points in 45 games this season for the Islanders. He has points in four of his last six outings, picking up seven points during that span. With plenty of rest, he could be primed for a big night against the Senators. He averages 2.7 fantasy points per game.

High Value C

Mika Zibanejad – Ottawa Senators ($5,400): Zibanejad has 10 goals and 18 assists for 28 points with 88 shots on goal in 46 games this season for the Senators. He currently has a three game point streak, during which he has two goals and four points. He just played on Thursday night, so keep that in mind when considering him. He averages 2.2 fantasy hockey points per game.

Ryan O’Reilly – Buffalo Sabres ($5,000): O’Reilly remains one of the best values on FanDuel. He has 17 goals and 23 assists for 40 points with 112 shots on goal in 47 games this season. He has a point in eight of his last ten games with three goals and five assists. He goes against the Islanders tonight. He averages three fantasy points per game.
