Bounceback Players in Fantasy Hockey

Nick Schmaltz

Nick Schmaltz only put up 7 G and 25 points in 40 games in the 2018-19 season;
he already has 4 G and 13 pts in 14 games so far this season.
Nick Schmaltz has been one of the best Arizona Coyotes this season is on track for a bounceback year.

JT Miller

JT Miller had a subpar year last season, putting up only 13 G and 47 points in 75 games;
so far this season, JT Miller has 6 G and 15 points in 14 games.
JT Miller is a perfect fit on the line with Elias Pettersson and Brock Boeser and is off to a great start in Vancouver.

James Neal

James Neal was acquired by the Edmonton Oilers in a trade with the Calgary Flames for Milan Lucic in the offseason in what was essentially a cap dump for both teams
Neal was in and out of the lineup with the Flames last year and only had 7 Goals and 19 points the entire season;
So far this season, Neal has 11 Goals, with 8 of them being on the PP.
Playing alongside Superstars like Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl on the PP in Edmonton will ensure that James Neal will have at least 30 Goals this season.

Sami Vatanen

Sami Vatanen struggled with injuries last season; he only put up 4 Goals, 17 points and was a -17 in 50 GP.
Vatanen has gotten off to a great start to the season, putting up 4 Goals and 7 points in 12 GP;
Vatanen plays on the Devils' 1st PP unit, so for that reason he should continue to have good fantasy value.

Justin Schultz

Justin Schultz only played in 29 games due to injury last season, so he didn't have much fantasy impact.
With the injuries the Penguins have had early in the season, Schultz has gotten time on the Penguins 1st PP
and his fantasy value will go up with due to Kris Letang miss an extended period of time.

Carter Hutton

Carter Hutton had a terrible season last year; he had a 18-25-5 record with a 3.00 GAA and .908 SV%.
Hutton has gotten off to a great start to this season; he has a 6-2-1 record with a 2.09 GAA, .928 SV% and 2 SO.
While you don't expect Hutton to continue putting up these type of numbers, he should still be a solid third goalie.

Fantasy Hockey Forwards to Trade For

Here is a list of Players who you should consider trading for in Fantasy Hockey. Tage Thompson Tage Thompson had very high expectations of him heading into this season but has been a massive disappointment to this point in the season with only 7 goals, 8 assists, 4 PPP, 60 SOG, and 99 FW. Thompson has been better after coming back from injury and you would think that he is going to eventually start putting points in bunches. Because of how bad Thompson's statline is this season. it would be a good idea to trade for him because you may not have to give up a lot in return.  Elias Lindholm Elias Lindholm is another player who has had a slow start to the season with only 7 goals, 10 assists, 3 PPP, 68 SOG, and 297 FW so far this season. Lindholm is definitely going to want to play better if he wants to increase his value for his next contract and also showcase himself for a trade at the deadline. If Lindholm gets dealt to a contending team, his fantasy value would drastically improve b

TIPS FOR DECIDING WHO TO KEEP FOR KEEPER/DYNASTY LEAGUES

Keeper fantasy leagues are a variation of traditional fantasy sports leagues where participants are allowed to keep a certain number of players from their previous season's roster onto their team for the upcoming season. The number of players that can be kept, as well as the specific rules regarding keeping players, vary from league to league and are typically determined by the league commissioner or by a set of agreed-upon rules among league members. In a keeper league, the kept players usually come with a cost, such as forfeiting a specific draft pick in the upcoming draft or having to pay a predetermined fee. This adds a strategic element to the game, as managers must decide which players to keep based on their performance, potential, and value relative to the cost of keeping them. Keeper leagues often provide a deeper level of engagement and strategy compared to standard fantasy leagues because managers need to consider long-term player development and roster management beyond

FANTASY HOCKEY WAIVER WIRE PLAYERS TO PICKUP

Here are some players you should pickup in Fantasy Hockey, sorted by position. Center Colton Sissons Colton Sissons is one of the best 4th line centers in the league, but in fantasy hockey, he could be even more valuable than he actually is in real life because of what he provides in the peripheral categories. So far this season Sissions has 5 goals, 1 PPP, 1 SHP, 12 PIM, 20 SOG, 89 FW, 15 hits, and 9 blocks. This is a terrific stat line and although you can't count on Sissons scoring a ton, he will fill out the FW, Hits, and blocks usually. Sissons is owned in 6% of fantasy leagues, snag him up while you can. Nick Bjugstad Nick Bjugstad is having an excellent year so far with the Arizona Coyotes, in fact he has played so well that he earned himself a promotion to play on the 2nd line along with Mattias Maccelli and Lawson Crouse. Bjugstad also gets time on Arizona's 2nd PP unit and 2nd PK unit. Bjugstad may not be a name who stands out to casuals, but his fantasy stat line is
