- 1:28They. Could they?
- 1:29Would really. Although if they know how to use
- 1:33technology, I feel like they're just far beyond maybe like,
- 1:35yeah. But you know what they think?
- 1:36Nobody's too good for anger management.
- 1:39That's fair. Let's go over how our reputation
- 1:42stickers went from last week. We haven't have a house.
- 1:46Yeah, I got a mansion. Yeah.
- 1:47He's got he's got a huge house with three massive W's to start.
- 1:52Ryan O'Reilly, 2 assists. That's a win.
- 1:56Pavel Buchnevich. Goat.
- 1:58Did like crazy crazy things last week.
- 2:02Two goals, 6 assists. That's the win of wins.
- 2:06Yeah, that's crazy. Points.
- 2:08Just dreaming. Eight points.
- 2:09Take our advice, baby or not, baby or people you know.
- 2:13Yes, babies are people. Yeah, what Kevin said.
- 2:20And Mason McDavid, One goal, 3 assists.
- 2:23That's four points, three wins across the board, not 29 and 13
- 2:27on the season. Huge.
- 2:29That's really. Huge.
- 2:30That's good. Yeah, that's.
- 2:32That's like people were like injury losses.
- 2:34Too. Yeah, exactly.
- 2:36Like I always knew we were good, but it's nice seeing like a
- 2:38number value. To yeah, you know, we are.
- 2:40Yeah. Yeah, yeah, this is fantabulous.
- 2:43Superfluous, if you may. Yeah.
- 2:45Ubiquitous, even. Insert big word here.
- 2:51OK, two teams to avoid it this week, Calgary and Dallas.
- 2:56Guys who are droppable on those teams really just from Calgary,
- 2:59Rasmus Andersson and Jonathan Huberdeau.
- 3:02Busy nights Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday, pretty standard and
- 3:05we're going to go over our players now and we're going to
- 3:08just should I list the teams for the officers?
- 3:10Quite. A few, no, Yeah.
- 3:12Either even like honestly, like this week, even like the busy
- 3:15nights are not that busy, especially the Thursdays.
- 3:18The I think the Thursdays like the one busy, one of the three
- 3:21busy ones, but like they're not that busy.
- 3:23Anyways, let's jump right into the players.
- 3:24Yeah, so we've got again, we're doing guys who are under 40%
- 3:28owned so that it applies to as many leagues as possible.
- 3:31So start some guys wear 30 to 40% owned.
- 3:34Got Tyler Toffoli line one power play 1, Ryan Denado the GOAT
- 3:38line 2 Power play 1, Ryan O'Reilly line one power play 1,
- 3:42Dmitri Voronkov line 11, Pavel Dora Phev line 2, Firefly 1 and
- 3:47Adam Fantilli line on power play one.
- 3:50Out of all these guys, I think my favorite is Fantilli just
- 3:54because you know he's line one power play one on that high
- 3:57flying Columbus team. We know Monahan is not going to
- 4:00be here for a while, so it really looks like you know he's
- 4:03going to hold out that position. So for this upcoming week, great
- 4:06streamer, has a really high ceiling points wise and then you
- 4:09just know that you'll be able to hold them potentially and get
- 4:12that long term value. Yeah, I like Fantilli a lot.
- 4:15My least favorite I would say is Dora PHEV in this category.
- 4:17I mean, still worth streaming if you're in a deep league and he's
- 4:21available, but I mean, I think he already lost that line 1
- 4:24deployment, his power play. One is, I don't know, do you
- 4:28think it's risky at this? Point my only concern with this,
- 4:31and by the time this episode goes live it probably won't be a
- 4:34concern anymore, is with the trade deadline approaching one
- 4:37has Vegas ever. Not acquired.
- 4:39They're getting somebody other deadline.
- 4:40So if they get a big name he is the weakest link on that power
- 4:43play 1 so he would get bumped off.
- 4:44So that's my only concern. If there roster stays as it is
- 4:47now, I don't think he has any risk of losing it.
- 4:49If they get like Raquel or if they get like Alex toggle,
- 4:51actually they're slotting that guy on PowerPoint. 100% so.
- 4:54Just pay attention before you stream him if you know they've
- 4:57acquired anybody or. Whatnot.
- 4:58I think we also have to shout out Ryan Denado.
- 5:01Yeah, he's been he's. Been one of the hottest players
- 5:04in the league right now, yeah, he's.
- 5:05So hot. I think for Bangor leagues is my
- 5:08favorite of all. These.
- 5:09But what about pretty? Deep with what?
- 5:11He's kind of like a trade bait name for with a deadline coming
- 5:14up you. Think do you guys?
- 5:15Yeah, go somewhere he tanks. Tanks, right?
- 5:19Yeah, I think never succeeded elsewhere.
- 5:20Yeah. So I think it's something to
- 5:22keep an. Eye out.
- 5:22It's like a four year sample size to me unless he goes to
- 5:25another. Relevant team thing is that like
- 5:28only a buyer's gonna buy him and all the buyers have better teams
- 5:32so he'll get buried in the lineup.
- 5:33Exactly. He's not gonna get as much of
- 5:35his. Time people.
- 5:35Wherever he goes, he's probably getting bottom 6 minutes.
- 5:37That's something to keep an eye on is again, by the time this
- 5:40goes live, the trade deadline will have passed, so you'll
- 5:42know. But I feel like he's had success
- 5:43in Chicago. They might want to keep him
- 5:44around just like have Yeah, somebody at a certain point they
- 5:46would try to start. Winning.
- 5:48So he's not like he's not old. Seth Jones.
- 5:50Yeah, exactly. Yeah, he's 28.
- 5:52He's turning 29. I mean, like, that's like
- 5:54another 6-7 years, yeah, career potentially with Bedard. 100%.
- 5:58Yeah, I would definitely not trade him if I were them if they
- 6:01do though. Because the thing was like kind
- 6:03of tanking teams. You can't be like always
- 6:06tanking. Look at like Edmonton like 10
- 6:08years with like getting like 10 first round picks and not doing
- 6:10anything with it. Look at Buffalo, just their
- 6:12entire history. Just a mess.
- 6:14Like no specific at a certain point you have to like start
- 6:17turning around the tank. And like, you know, I look like
- 6:19some of the comments like Kent uses made for the Habs where
- 6:21he's like, at this point I'm not looking to trade for draft picks
- 6:24anymore. I wanna trade for young players.
- 6:25Who can help us? Exactly.
- 6:26So I think Chicago should keep him as well, but we'll have to
- 6:29wait and see what happens. All right, moving on to some
- 6:31guys who are. What do you think about
- 6:33Voronkov, O'Reilly and Toffoli like do?
- 6:35You have you very similar to Chantilly.
- 6:37I like better, but they have the exact same deployment and I like
- 6:40the Blue Jackets a lot to Foley gets to play with celebrity and
- 6:44on line one power play one. Don't see his deployment going
- 6:47anywhere. He has no move clause so he's
- 6:48going to be there for the rest of his career probably.
- 6:50I like him a lot O'Reilly just Nashville sucks but he's been on
- 6:54a hot streak so yeah. I like him but I think he's him
- 6:57and Dorsey ever. My bought him 2 of.
- 7:00Those two and I really like Fantilli here.
- 7:02He's just been on this episode for a while now and I think he's
- 7:06consistently impressed. Yeah, he'll be probably over to
- 7:0840% working the next week. Probably, yeah, that's a lot of
- 7:10these guys. You know, by the time they this
- 7:13goes live, they might have gone over 40%.
- 7:15Yeah. Alright, let's dive into some
- 7:17guys who are between 10 and 30% owned.
- 7:20So we've got Stephen Neeson, Connor Garland, Nick Schmaltz,
- 7:25Kent Johnson, Troy Terry. You guys here with four games
- 7:29this week? I'm less enthused by this group
- 7:32of players, even though they have like still some solid
- 7:34deployment. But I think my favorite out of
- 7:36these guys is I don't even know. I think probably Schmaltz or
- 7:42Garland. Terry for me.
- 7:44I like, I like Anaheim a lot lately.
- 7:46Hmm, I do. I like Ken Johnson a lot.
- 7:48But we're talking just. Pure points Johnson for sure.
- 7:50Really, on a on, he's just not gonna get many shots.
- 7:54Though he's just pure. Point we've seen Garland kind of
- 7:56had these like he was like super droppable for like, you know
- 7:59honestly a month while Vancouver is going through their stuff
- 8:02yeah but lately he's kind of like picked it up again I.
- 8:04Just really don't like Vancouver.
- 8:05Yeah, I think I think he's one of the few bright spots on their
- 8:08team this year, but I just. Yeah, but even that's not that,
- 8:10right? Yeah, exactly.
- 8:11So like, that's why I wouldn't. Wish most also slow down a lot
- 8:14too. I agree.
- 8:15I think my top one in this group would probably be Johnson if he
- 8:20had I think game week. But since he has a three-game
- 8:23and Terry, Shelton, Garland all have four games, I would
- 8:26probably go with Terry. Terry, like Anaheim's been doing
- 8:28lately. I think Nathan is my least
- 8:30favorite line 3 and he may not even be P1 anymore.
- 8:33That's 2. And even if he is on PP1 like
- 8:36they just lost hues and possibly Hamilton so that's not as
- 8:39exciting of a spot. Yes, it was earlier in the
- 8:41season, but yeah, that's a good, good group of guys.
- 8:45Move on to some more 10 to 30% owned guys.
- 8:47You've got Turbo Teravainen. He's hot, hot.
- 8:51Mason Lowri, Jonathan Truant, Jason Zucker if Healthy, and
- 8:55Alex Laferriere. This is a I love Turbo.
- 8:58I love Jason Zucker. I mean, Zucker has missed the
- 9:02last 3-4 games, so keep an eye on that.
- 9:04But if he's healthy, I think he's like a really strongly
- 9:07roster able guy. Turbo Turbine is like the most
- 9:10restorable guy right now out of all this.
- 9:11Crazy reliable. You know he's playing line one
- 9:14with. Two power play.
- 9:16One yeah, but he's playing with on the P1, sorry and.
- 9:19And with the goat Donato strength.
- 9:21And with the goat Donato, so they really have some good
- 9:23chemistry. NATO on the Hawks?
- 9:25Yeah. Exactly.
- 9:28He's averaging like 1.56 points per game over the past month.
- 9:32It's obviously skewed because of the break, but like, it's just
- 9:34it's just if you look at his game log, it's all just multi
- 9:36point games. Yeah, he has one game in the
- 9:38last like 10 that doesn't have a point.
- 9:39So Turbo is definitely my top pick.
- 9:41Again, he's a guy rising in percentage.
- 9:43So by the time this years, you know, like who knows?
- 9:45But but yeah, for now he's still under 30% owned, which is crazy.
- 9:49Jason Zucker, like for like over the course of the season, has
- 9:52been really, really good. He's been very consistent.
- 9:54Yeah, if he comes back healthy, I like him a lot.
- 9:57Probably my least favorite is Laffer Year.
- 9:59He has the deployment, but he hasn't really done much with it
- 10:01yet. Yeah, Drew also not that high on
- 10:04Laura. I've been.
- 10:05Really slowed down. Yeah, Laura, I've been impressed
- 10:08with actually. Yeah, me too.
- 10:09I mean, I was kind of skeptical. We didn't really know how long
- 10:11McAvoy would be out. Looks like it's longer than we
- 10:13were thinking. And Laura, honestly, he's been
- 10:16putting up some volume stats like his shot in his blogs have
- 10:19been way higher than I thought. And he's getting some points
- 10:22too. Like he if you picked them up
- 10:24when you were when you lost McAvoy, you're probably really
- 10:26happy. I did not.
- 10:27I picked up 40 year old and Burns instead so big mistake for
- 10:31me. But yeah, I wish I had lower on
- 10:34my roster. Right now, does the Marshall
- 10:35injury affect Lori at all because the power play?
- 10:37One probably gets worse, but overall I feel that's not
- 10:39something that he was his main value he.
- 10:41Moves the need that. Much.
- 10:42Just doing really good with a lot of minutes.
- 10:44That's all about the minutes and he's got past them.
- 10:45That's really like if it was a past injury would be a different
- 10:48story. But not to discredit Martial has
- 10:50been amazing this year, but really fast as the guy on that
- 10:52team. Alright, next crop of guys.
- 10:54We've got William Eckland, Pavel Zacha, Morgan Geekie, Kyle
- 10:58Palmeri, and Warn Fogel. Yeah, previously on Kevin's
- 11:02team, William. Yeah.
- 11:04I traded for him. I'm not a proud owner of John
- 11:07Tavares. Yeah, it was not one for one.
- 11:10Although it's looking about would have been pretty decently
- 11:13Auckland, Auckland's been. Good switching off.
- 11:16Yeah. I still, I still think, I still
- 11:19think it was a fair trade. Yeah.
- 11:20But anyways, yeah, William Eckland's been so, so good,
- 11:24really the whole season. Very consistent with points.
- 11:27Yeah. So I really, really think he's.
- 11:29Awesome. Like we say this a lot, but
- 11:31really these young guys, especially on worse teams
- 11:34towards the end of the season, once the team is kind of like
- 11:36given up and they get all the ice time, I really like how they
- 11:39perform towards like the end of the season.
- 11:40So Eckland is definitely my favorite of these.
- 11:42Yeah, Kiki's grade 2 wiki. Yeah, exactly.
- 11:44Getting the bump to power play one and just he's already been
- 11:47like a really big good bangers guy.
- 11:49So I like him a lot. Paul Mary's been actually
- 11:52surprisingly solid. But only scoring goals, yeah.
- 11:54So you gotta know that's gonna slow down at some point.
- 11:57But he's also a name in trade, trade rumors, too.
- 12:00Yeah. I just don't know if I don't
- 12:02know can make trades like that. Yeah, that's the thing.
- 12:04Like are they gonna just resign Nelson Palmer or are they gonna
- 12:07trade them? But again, this is the situation
- 12:09with like a lot of these guys where Palmer gets traded.
- 12:11I think it just makes them worse.
- 12:12He's not gonna get line one power play one on any other.
- 12:14Team. Depends where he goes I guess,
- 12:16but probably. Team that's going on.
- 12:17Now he can, he can squeeze into some line 2 minutes, Yeah,
- 12:20potentially, but we'll see. But out of these guys, I think
- 12:22for sure, turbo or not turbo, sorry, Eckland.
- 12:26I think he's the main around this, he's playing with like I
- 12:28think the best line mates. Yeah, with celebrity Antifa.
- 12:31Yeah, great deployment. The probably is honestly not as
- 12:34bad as you would expect for Sharks team as near the bottom
- 12:36of the league. Maybe, maybe geeky overall
- 12:39category coverage is the best option, Yeah, but follow my
- 12:42least favorite by far. Yeah, I just included him.
- 12:44He doesn't have the deployment, but he's surprisingly puts up a
- 12:46lot of. Shots.
- 12:47Exactly. And can chip in with points.
- 12:51And then we've got the last group that's 10 to 30% owned.
- 12:54We've got Sheen, Pinto, Shane Wright, Mason Mctavish, Alex
- 12:57Classic and Beard Heaton. This is such a fun group.
- 13:00Yeah, like such a fun group. The chains are great.
- 13:04I think I, I mean, I, I called out right a few weeks ago and
- 13:07he's just been pretty solid since.
- 13:09Then line 32. So it's kind of just like
- 13:11you're, you're expecting it to kind of slow down a little bit,
- 13:13but. Seattle is weird with their
- 13:15lines where like they split it evenly.
- 13:16Also, they just traded Gordon and.
- 13:18Yeah, so we'll see how that shakes more minutes for him.
- 13:20Yeah, which would be really nice.
- 13:22And Pinto has also just been great all year.
- 13:24Mactavish has been super good as the Ducks have gone better, he's
- 13:28been a huge part of that. Vlasic honestly.
- 13:31I mean him and Lori are the most noteworthy defenseman streamers
- 13:34for points. And stuff and both could be you
- 13:37know a Lori really depends on yeah as.
- 13:39Long as Michael is out. He's valuable.
- 13:41Vlasic could be a season long hold.
- 13:43It's not often that you get the opportunity at a power play on
- 13:45defenseman, even on a bad team for the rest of the season on
- 13:48waivers. So.
- 13:50If you needed a. Defenceman.
- 13:51Yeah, exactly. And then Hayden somehow still
- 13:54hanging on to that power play. One spot, really.
- 13:56Expect Cooley to take it at some point, but.
- 13:58If you look at any minute now. That's it.
- 14:00I think just the second they go through like a rough stretch
- 14:02where he doesn't produce it, cool, he's gonna take it.
- 14:05But until then, you can grab him, alright.
- 14:07And then we've got a couple of guys who are under 10% owned got
- 14:10Leo Carlson, Will Smith, Ryan Strome, Igor Chikov, Phillip
- 14:15Heidel, Darren Radish and Trevor Zachris.
- 14:17No, I'm not biased when I say this, but I just picked up Ryan
- 14:20Stroman. He scored a goal, so looking
- 14:23looking up for rest. Of all time confirmed.
- 14:25Line 1P1 is gonna get the best possible deployment on the
- 14:28Ducks. So wins faceoffs, yeah.
- 14:30Wins faceoffs were in faceoffs leaks, so that helps me even
- 14:33though I don't have the worst faceoff team in the league.
- 14:36But yeah, I like I like strum a lot.
- 14:39I think Jake's famous little Carlson.
- 14:42So yeah. I like Will Smith too though.
- 14:43Smith. Is he his shooting which is
- 14:45nice? Yeah, Will Smith is like, he was
- 14:47a super, super highly touted prospect and like he's he's
- 14:53really, really fitting in nicely on the Sharks team.
- 14:55Yeah, it's like nice passive, like being able to like, you
- 14:58know, transfer from like acting to.
- 15:00To the. The same guy.
- 15:03The French Prince of San Jose. I am legend now.
- 15:07I am legend on ice. Nice creative twist.
- 15:12Yeah. No, but he's he's putting up
- 15:16really, really well. Yeah, he's a, he's doing really
- 15:18well points wise, like not the best for back cats, but a lot
- 15:21of, you know, when you get down here you're just happy to get
- 15:23points. I feel like in the percent
- 15:24ownership. Yeah, my least favorite here is
- 15:27I think Radish doesn't have the P1 spot, which as of right.
- 15:30Now he jumping back and forth like I keep seeing like.
- 15:33Probably I would just not I would just not waste an add on
- 15:36on a guy that potentially not going to be where you want him
- 15:38to be on in the lineup. Yeah, Trevor is using my lease
- 15:41heart forward on this list. Yeah, I think he has the least
- 15:43category coverage and his points are somewhat more sporadic than
- 15:46the others. I find like grouped together,
- 15:49but it can go stretches without getting anything I like I think
- 15:53is kind of underrated after the trade.
- 15:54I feel like people don't really talk about him but he's been
- 15:56somewhat fantasy relevant, especially in deeper.
- 15:58Leagues he definitely like. Face off wins and shots.
- 16:01I think he has a really good foundation there.
- 16:03And then, you know, you can get more points than you would
- 16:05expect. It doesn't.
- 16:05Vancouver. Vancouver like.
- 16:07Our belief shows. But like, yeah, they're they're
- 16:11terrible. But it also when you have like a
- 16:12team that's doing that poorly, it really opens it up to kind of
- 16:15anyone having the chance to, you know, break in and take the ice
- 16:18time. Yeah, and go and run with it.
- 16:20So he does really taking. Advantage of this special case
- 16:22like I'm pretty big on the idea of players going to new teams
- 16:24and being worse there yeah but considering the whole dynamic is
- 16:27changing for them now and he's he's there to be a part of their
- 16:31future yeah I think I think they're going to try their best
- 16:34to make him work as. Soon as possible Rule of thumb I
- 16:36feel like with trades is like if you go to a better team you
- 16:39become less fantasy relevant and if you go to a worse team become
- 16:41more. Fantasy.
- 16:42Depends. Just depends obviously.
- 16:43Depends on if it's a mid season. Trade.
- 16:45Yeah, exactly. If you go into a worse team,
- 16:47role gets bigger. That's exactly, yeah.
- 16:48Exactly. Yeah.
- 16:50All right. And then we'll cover quickly
- 16:51some Bangor streamers. We'll do the reputation stakers
- 16:54first. OK, yeah, so our top three for
- 16:57this week to see if Kevin's gonna have a house next.
- 16:59Week for three for three last week last time.
- 17:01So yeah, we've got Turbo Teravainen, William Eckland and
- 17:05Leo Carlson. I for.
- 17:06Sure, I'm gonna have a mansion next week, Yeah.
- 17:08Yeah, I feel, I feel pretty good about these pics.
- 17:10Yeah, I'm feeling. And just to say, like, I mean
- 17:13the Leo Carlson pick. Yeah, we had all the ducks.
- 17:18All the Anaheim Ducks can be amazing.
- 17:20So you have their best options who are in this list because
- 17:25they're all less than 40% owned, like all these amazing guys.
- 17:28So if Carlson's not on waivers for whatever reason, but
- 17:31Mctavish is nothing wrong with that.
- 17:33Same with Terry, you know. Yeah, and even strong, like
- 17:35honestly all four of those guys I think could be solid pickups
- 17:37for four-game weekend with. Obviously have some volatility
- 17:40to them. They're on the docks and less
- 17:41than 40%, right? That's for a reason.
- 17:43But we've seen all of them be able to pop off recently.
- 17:45Yeah, and if you need a streamer like, they're worth a shot.
- 17:49Yeah, alright. And I'll get into some of the
- 17:51bangers again. It's a lot of the usual
- 17:53suspects, you know, we've got great movie.
- 17:56Yeah. Kiefer Sherwood, Jacob Trouba,
- 18:00Radko, Gudas, Blake Coleman, Alexander Romanov.
- 18:04Just a couple. Comments on those guys.
- 18:06Romanov has still been pretty sick.
- 18:08Like he's slowed down a lot, but he's putting up more points than
- 18:10he was before. And like his range for those
- 18:13back categories, the hits and the.
- 18:15Blocks I feel like. He just 7.
- 18:16Blocks. His hits have slowed down a bit,
- 18:18but his blogs are truly illegal. Like I think he might be one of
- 18:20the best blockers in the league. So if your league counts blocks,
- 18:22then yeah, I would really look into him.
- 18:24Obviously Sherwood, Shuba, Goudis like these guys are
- 18:26owning any banger with most likely so.
- 18:28They're still like, I guess there's not that many bangers
- 18:30leagues. These are all under 40% owned.
- 18:32But but if somehow you're in agree and they're available, you
- 18:34know, I would go for it. Alright, then we've got Elias
- 18:37Lindholm, Will Cooley, Josh Norris, Brayden Schenn, Dylan
- 18:41Cousins. Dylan Cousins is the GOAT.
- 18:43First of all, have you looked at his banger game log?
- 18:46Yeah, so good. It's really.
- 18:47Good. This is I started last week for
- 18:50a faceoff league dream come true.
- 18:51Yeah, it's incredible. And even a non face off league,
- 18:53it's incredible. He's getting like almost a
- 18:56triple, triple it feels like recently so.
- 18:58Honestly so far pretty much every guy we've named should be
- 19:01owned in every bangers league for sure.
- 19:03It's it's crazy how many good options there are at under 40,
- 19:07under 30%. I know.
- 19:08But yeah, these are all great options.
- 19:10And specifically like the last couple in face off win leagues
- 19:13get a big boost like Norris, Shannon Cousins.
- 19:15Then we've got Boone Jenner, Eli Tolvanen, Matthew Olivier,
- 19:19Martin Pospisil, Luke Shen, Mark Kastelic and Scott Lawton.
- 19:23Yeah. There's some interesting.
- 19:24Ones I like all these guys specifically for obviously
- 19:27bangers. Luke Shen, you know, he just got
- 19:30traded, so let's wait to see what his deployment is and how
- 19:32many minutes he's playing. Like I can see if he plays a lot
- 19:35less minutes, his, you know, banger categories unknown.
- 19:38Scotland's trade bait. I feel like if you want to take
- 19:40A chance on me, if you want to take a chance on him this week
- 19:42and then he gets traded to like a Colorado or something, you
- 19:44know, like they might have even better playoff schedule.
- 19:47Philly doesn't have a good playoff schedule and we'll see.
- 19:49Maybe he gets when more minutes, his major categories go up.
- 19:53I think would be really cool to. See as a rule though, if he gets
- 19:55traded do you think it's the same effect like for points guys
- 19:58where? There's like for bankers guys,
- 19:59that usually just depends on the minutes.
- 20:01That's it, yeah. And I think that any cousins get
- 20:05traded or if Lawton gets traded, you know, two guys are pretty
- 20:08high trade at the moment. I still think, I think that
- 20:11they're gonna go to teams that are gonna give them minutes and
- 20:14they're gonna. Succeed.
- 20:15I think so. I think both cousins in Lawton
- 20:17will improve where they go. Cuz Lawton, cuz it's Kevin
- 20:20mentioned, if you kind of pick him up, see what happens, right?
- 20:23I mean, it's good for this week, but for the playoff schedule,
- 20:26Philly's not that great. So let's say he gets traded at
- 20:29some point. I mean, he could be good for the
- 20:31duration of the season. 100%. Yeah, I agree.
- 20:35Other guys don't like Olivier. He just saw Olivia just signed
- 20:38like a like a six year like 3. Or so he's gonna be a mainstay
- 20:43on this segment. Yeah, exactly.
- 20:45But these guys are just pure hits, right?
- 20:47So that's why you're kind of streaming for if you're gonna
- 20:49stream these guys, I'd kinda wait until the middle or the end
- 20:52of your week. If you're in a category league
- 20:54specifically and you know that like it says, the category that
- 20:56you really need to stream, like that's when you kind of stream
- 20:57these. Guys and also the first time I
- 21:00mentioned Boone Jenner came back from injury and just has been
- 21:02putting up a lot of points in addition to his banger thing.
- 21:04I'd say the one thing that been missing versus other years is
- 21:07his face off wins. I don't think he's been winning
- 21:09as many faceoffs, but the hits and blocks are there and the
- 21:12points are there. So he's probably the most the
- 21:15best pickup, but also probably the one that's taken in most
- 21:18leagues. Just a caveat with Luke Shen, he
- 21:20did just get traded to the Penguins Tuesday, Thursday,
- 21:25Saturday did you mention? No, I didn't mention.
- 21:27Three games next week, just to say.
- 21:29Anyways, yeah, good. Moving on to some goalies.
- 21:32So we've got classic 3 goalie streamers.
- 21:34We'll get at least two starts. Again, I feel like we're always
- 21:38picking the usual suspects with these guys who are low percent
- 21:40owned but are the starters on their teams.
- 21:42So we've got Elvis Presley, Ekins.
- 21:44Who would go against. This banger management stable if
- 21:46you don't every episode. Literally New Jersey, Vegas and
- 21:49Rangers. It's not an easy one.
- 21:51None of those are easy. I think New Jersey could be.
- 21:54They could win two out of three of these, yeah.
- 21:55That's The thing is Columbus is a playoff team and I honestly, I
- 21:59see them passing New Jersey in the standings.
- 22:01That'd be wild. I don't think it's crazy.
- 22:03I think they could do it, especially with the New Jerseys
- 22:05injuries. So we'll see.
- 22:06But yeah, this is going to put up some good numbers.
- 22:08They have to win and they have the best defenseman in the world
- 22:11on their team so. This one probably.
- 22:14Yeah, then you got funny. The last the next two I'm gonna
- 22:17mention were both compared to each other on our Would you
- 22:20Rather is this week, but we've got Sam Ursin and Spencer
- 22:23Knight, so Orson's gonna be playing against Ottawa, Tampa
- 22:26and Carolina again, not the easiest of matchups.
- 22:29And we've got night playing Colorado, San Jose and
- 22:31Vancouver. So San Jose and Vancouver
- 22:34actually like both those matchups, even if it's Chicago,
- 22:36so. I think this is a really good
- 22:38week to stream these goals. Specifically, I think Spencer
- 22:41Night probably a really good streamer I think.
- 22:43He's my favorite. These are absolutely.
- 22:46Right. And then some quality starts.
- 22:48We've got Scott Wedgewood, who's going to get either Chicago or
- 22:50Minnesota. I know Minnesota normally
- 22:52wouldn't be a bottom feeder team, but with all their
- 22:55injuries, they've been playing really poorly.
- 22:56You've got Yakub Dobish on the Habs and Vancouver or Seattle.
- 23:01I like both those matchups and the haves are streaking right
- 23:03now. Yeah.
- 23:04I mean, we want to make the playoffs, so, yeah.
- 23:06Exactly, Hard. And then Archers, Sheila Offs,
- 23:09who has not been good this year, but they're playing in Chicago
- 23:12or Utah. So yeah, I think, you know, as
- 23:16far as easy matchups go, those are them.
- 23:18But all done since he was in his.
- 23:20Prime, I know. Lower on the quality, lower on
- 23:23the quality level, but still Vancouver is probably has a good
- 23:26shot to win any of these games. You know, they're kind of
- 23:28slumping. He's definitely like my third
- 23:30choice out of those three. I would probably go, I think.
- 23:33Would you guys go Dovish or Wedgwood as your first?
- 23:35Choice. Go Wedgewood and then Dobish.
- 23:37Yeah, I think I agree with that. Me too, although like Vancouver,
- 23:41yeah Vancouver sucks. So bad.
- 23:43What happened to Vancouver? Yeah.
- 23:45Do we have a mere bet where I bet Calgary makes the playoffs
- 23:47over Vancouver with one of you guys?
- 23:49I could see myself having made that.
- 23:52I confirm what if I did? As low as I am on Vancouver,
- 23:55like I'm still not a I still not impressed with Calgary.
- 23:58I think they're really bad. I think they only have one good
- 24:01player, and that's Dustin Wolf. Yeah, no, they have other good
- 24:03players, but the only reason they're even remotely in the
- 24:05playoffs is because of. Wolf Yeah, yeah.
- 24:07He's like they got shut out two games in a row and then scored
- 24:10like one goal and or like two goals in one like 21 the next
- 24:12game because of Wolf. Like it's, it's crazy.
- 24:14He's been nuts, yeah. Yeah, imagine dropping him.
- 24:17Yep, who could do that? No, no, couldn't be me.
- 24:22Not be me unrelated. Thank you to everybody for
