Fantasy Hockey Waiver Wire: Top Picks and Streamers

As the fantasy hockey season heats up, it’s essential to stay on top of the waiver wire to snag the best available players. Here are some top picks and streamers to consider for your fantasy team.

Forwards

• Logan Stankoven, F, Dallas Stars (29.1% rostered): Stankoven is off to an impressive start, with four assists in his first few games. He’s skating on a line with Roope Hintz and Jason Robertson, making him a valuable addition to your fantasy team.
• Jonathan Huberdeau, F, Calgary Flames (43.6% rostered): Huberdeau is feeling confident and loose, which is reflected in his three-goal, two-assist start to the season. He’s a proven contributor and worth a flier in deeper leagues.
• Pavel Zacha, F, Boston Bruins (30.0% rostered): Zacha is skating on a top line with David Pastrnak and Elias Lindholm, making him a desirable pickup. He scored a career-high 59 points last season and could exceed 65 this campaign.

Defensemen

• Shayne Gostisbehere, D, Carolina Hurricanes (32.3% rostered): Gostisbehere is anchoring Carolina’s top power play and has a history of producing with the man advantage. He’s a great pickup for leagues that reward scoring on the power play.
• Brandt Clarke, D, Los Angeles Kings (7.6% rostered): With Drew Doughty sidelined, Clarke is filling in on the Kings’ top power play. He’s a gifted offensive defenseman who could put up serious numbers this season.

Goaltenders

• Anthony Stolarz, G, Toronto Maple Leafs (23.1% rostered): Stolarz is the go-to starter for the Leafs while Joseph Woll is sidelined. He’s been superb so far, posting a .940 save percentage and 1.54 GAA.
• Sam Montembeault, G, Montreal Canadiens (45.9% rostered): Montembeault has looked great so far, pitching a 48-save shutout against the Maple Leafs and surrendering just one goal in a follow-up victory.

Short-term Streamers

• Ross Colton, F, Colorado Avalanche (8.7% rostered): The Avs play every second night this week, and Colton is skating in the top six. He’s a great pickup for the next few days.
• Phillip Danault, F, Los Angeles Kings (22.7% rostered): The Kings tour Eastern Canada this week, and Danault is due to add to his scoring total.
• Mikael Granlund, F, San Jose Sharks (26% rostered): Granlund is filling in on the top line while Macklin Celebrini is injured. He collected 60 points in 69 games last season and is a great pickup for the next few games.
