James Neal – NAS (W) – $5000

Nashville will play host to the visiting Winnipeg Jets tonight. Nashville is a -150 favorite and has the best projected team total on the slate, of 3.3 goals. You’ll see that a handful of Predators make today’s list. Most are severely under-priced, and given the match-up, will be justifiable in all formats.

James Neal will anchor the second line and also receive time on the top powerplay unit. He’s averaging 3.19 shots per game this year and offers a viable fantasy floor for both cash games and tournaments.

Roman Josi – NAS (D) – $6000

Roman Josi is always in play given his consistency, but stands out more than normal, given the matchup with the Jets. Josi is averaging 2.92 shots and 1.83 blocks per game, this month. Most of the Predators listed here have received price decreases, including Josi, who is priced down $400 dollars from the beginning of the month.

Filip Forsberg – NAS (W) – $6600

Consider Filip Forsberg tonight, if you’re looking for an elite forward at a discounted price. Forsberg has the most upside of any Nashville forward. He’s recorded 12 goals and 5 assists for a total of 17 points in his last 14 games. Forsberg also offers safety through his shot volume, where he’s currently averaging 3.50 shots on goal, this month.

Ryan Ellis – NAS (D) – $4200

Ryan Ellis has been in and out of the lineup recently, but if he’s in the lineup tonight, he should be considered. Ellis was recently priced up at $4,700 and is now a substantial $500 cheaper. If Ellis is slated to receive a full complement of minutes, he should be a good bet to reach value. Ellis has safety through his peripheral scoring, where he’s averaging 2.10 shots and 2.20 blocks per game this month.

Best of luck!
