Taylor Hall – NJD (W) – $6700

Taylor Hall made his return to the lineup last week, and didn’t miss a beat, notching a goal and two assists in his second game back. More importantly, he played a full complement of minutes and didn’t seem restricted. The Devils will draw a favorable match up tonight, at home, against Vancouver. Hall is averaging just under 5 shots per game, in addition to nearly one point per game. I’ll be targeting Hall in all formats tonight.

Kevin Fiala – NSH (W) – $4000

With the injury to James Neal, space has opened up on the second line, for young forward, Kevin Fiala. In his last game, he played a season high, 19 minutes. Fiala has also seen time on the top power play unit, and if that continues, he’ll be a great value option with tremendous upside. Nashville is currently a -200 favorite with a total of 5.5, so finding exposure to the Predators would be a wise choice.

Patrick Eaves – DAL (W) – $5800

Patrick Eaves provides a cheap option if you’re looking to get exposure to the potent forwards, Tyler Seguin and Jamie Benn. Eaves should be skating on the first line with these two, as well as on the top power play unit. Through 25 games, Eaves has collected 63 shots on goal and 18 points. His minutes per game is a tad low for someone of this price, but given the match up tonight, he should be able to reach expected value.
