High Salary C

Sidney Crosby-Pittsburgh Penguins ($7,900): Crosby remained hot with a goal and two assists on Saturday and now has a 10-game point streak. He’s got 23 points in his last 15 games and has absolutely been on fire. It’s taken a while this season, but Crosby is finally playing like the fantasy superstar he once was. Tonight’s matchup with Anaheim looks tough on paper, but take Crosby and hope that he keeps rolling.

Steven Stamkos-Tampa Bay Lightning ($7,000): Stamkos notched two assists on Saturday and has five points in his last six games. He’s had a bit of a slow season, but still has 40 points in 53 games. Stamkos is a talented center and can still be a very good producer of fantasy points. His matchup tonight looks fantastic, as the Senators are ranked 29th in fantasy points allowed to opposing centers.

Aleksander Barkov-Florida Panthers ($6,200): Barkov extended his goal streak to four games on Saturday and now has 16 goals and 19 assists for the season. He’s been hot lately with a six-game point streak and 12 points in his last 15 games. Barkov isn’t as high-priced as some of the other centers tonight, but he’s been producing just as well. Take him at a discounted price tonight and enjoy the production.

High Value C

Vincent Trocheck-Florida Panthers ($4,900): Trocheck is still flying under the fantasy radar but has been producing at a great clip. He notched an assist on Saturday and now has a five-game point streak. He has five goals in the last five games and has been a great addition to fantasy lineups over the past few weeks. A matchup with Detroit will be tough tonight, but Trocheck is hot and has a great price, so take him for your lineup tonight.

Ryan Kesler-Anaheim Ducks ($4,900): Kesler has continued to roll lately and remains a fantasy must-start. He recorded two assists in his last game on Friday and enters tonight with a two-game point streak. He’s got eight points in his last six games and gets a decent matchup tonight with Pittsburgh. Kesler still has a value price and is very useful to fantasy lineups at this point in time.
