High Salary Wings

Alex Ovechkin – Washington Capitals ($9,100): Ovechkin has become extremely pricey but if you want the hottest player in the league, Ovechkin is well worth his price. He has 38 goals and 15 assists for 53 points with 157 hits and 292 shots on goal in 55 games. Over his last 10 games, Ovechkin has 10 goals and an assist with 26 hits and 64 shots on goal. He averages 5.5 fantasy hockey points per game (including 6.9 per game over his last ten games).

Filip Forsberg – Nashville Predators ($5,700): Forsberg has 39 points (20 goals and 19 assists) with 84 hits and 173 shots on goal in 59 games this season. Over his last 10 games, he has six goals, three assists, 10 hits, and 29 shots on goal. Going against the struggling Montreal Canadiens, Forsberg is a fantastic option. He averages 3.4 fantasy points per game.

Brad Marchand – Boston Bruins ($6,900): Marchand has been unbelievable over his last 10 games. He has 10 goals and four assists for 14 points with 35 shots on goal during that span. Brad Marchand has 30 goals and 16 assists for 46 points with 177 shots on goal in 54 games this season. He goes tonight against the Blue Jackets averaging 4.2 fantasy hockey points per game (including 5.9 per game over his last 10 games).

High Value Wings

Jaden Schwartz – St. Louis Blues ($5,400): Schwartz has nine points in 12 games this season and has come back strong from his injury. Over his last 10 games, he has four goals and three assists for seven points. He has five points in four games since returning from injury. The Blues wing averages 3.2 fantasy points per game.

Andre Burakovsky – Washington Capitals ($4,800): Burakovsky was held without a point against the Devils on Saturday but he is still playing very well with Kuznetsov on the second forward line. He has five goals and three assists for eight points over his last 10 games with 25 shots on goal. Burakovsky goes tonight against the Coyotes averaging 2.1 fantasy hockey points per game (including 3.6 per game over his last 10 games).

Anthony Duclair – Arizona Coyotes ($4,100): Duclair has 33 points (16 goals and 17 assists) in 57 games this season with 76 shots on goal.
