Here are some players to pick up for playoffs:
Morgan Frost
Morgan Frost has truly had a breakout year this season with the Philadelphia Flyers and has now fully taken over the role as the team's first-line center. Frost has 5 goals, 3 assists, 16 SOG, 65 faceoff wins, and a +2 rating in the last two weeks; he has dual eligibility at Center and Left-wing, making him more valuable in leagues that emphasize positions. Frost is ranked 59th overall in Fantasy and owned in 13% of leagues; consider pickup him up as an injury replacement.
Alex Iafallo
Alex Iafallo has been on a tear of late, putting up 4 goals, 2 assists, 3 PPP, 20 SOG, 2 GWG, and is a +3 in the next two weeks. Although Iafallo isn't featured in the top 6 for the LA Kings but are playing on the 1st PP unit. Iafallo is ranked 39th overall in fantasy and owned in only 6% of leagues; he is a player to own if you need more SOG and PPP.
Cody Glass
Cody Glass is quietly putting in good numbers for a Nashville Predators team that has fallen out of the Western Conference, but Glass has been thriving as the team's number 1 center. Glass put up 4 goals, 2 assists, 4 PPP, 16 SOG, 54 Faceoff wins, 2 GWG, and a +1 rating in the last two weeks and has eligibility at the center and right-wing. He is ranked 23rd overall but only owned in 3% of fantasy leagues; he is a player you should consider in deep leagues.
Carson Soucy
Carson Soucy is a defenseman who really flies under the radar because he plays for the Seattle Kraken, who don't really get much buzz, and he isn't exactly a household name. Soucy has been on a tear lately, putting up 1 goal, 3 assists, 8 SOG, 2 SHP, 17 hits, 7 blocks and a +5 rating in the last two weeks. He is currently ranked 34th overall but only owned in 2% of fantasy leagues; Soucy is a defenseman that gets a little bit of everything across the board, making him a valuable fantasy asset.
Kyle Burroughs
Kyle Burroughs is exactly the player you want to have in a league that counts hits and blocks because his production in both categories has been off the cart since the Luke Schenn trade. Burroughs is playing alongside Quinn Hughes on the 1st D pair and is also on the 1st PK unit; he has 30 hits, 20 blocks, and +9 rating in the last two weeks. Currently, Burroughs is ranked 37th overall and is owned in 8% of leagues; he must be picked up if you need hits and blocks.
Alex Lyon
Alex Lyon has one of the best goalies in the NHL in the stretch run of the season and has been one of the main reasons the Panthers are holding the 2nd wildcard spot now. In the absence of Sergei Bobrovsky, Lyon has pretty much been the workhorse in net for Florida, going 4-0 in the last two weeks, with a 1.25 GAA, .959 SV%, 116 saves, and 1 Shutout. Lyon is ranked 8th overall but only owned in 17% of leagues, Lyon could be a player who wins you a championship.
