Fantasy Hockey Weekend Streamers

In the Weekend Streamers we will be using 35-40% ownership from Yahoo as the cut off for our streaming options.

Carolina Hurricanes

The Hurricanes have two games against two top teams. Both teams have top tier goalies and a good defensive crew. In addition to the players listed below, keep an eye on Warren Foegele (0%), Lucas Wallmark (0%) and Martin Necas (1%).

• Saturday 10/5 – @ Washington Capitals
• Sunday 10/6 – vs Tampa Bay Lightning

Streaming Options:

• Points – Erik Haula (11%), Ryan Dzingle(16%)
• Hits – Jordan Martinook (1%), Jordan Staal (11%)
• Blocks – Jaccob Slavin (11%), Joel Edmundson (1%)

Dallas Stars

The Stars have the easier weekend match up compared to the other teams in this article, but the downfall of the Stars could be their lack of depth when looking at fantasy hockey options. Streaming options are tough to find in a top heavy team like Dallas.

• Saturday 10/5 – @ St. Louis Blues
• Sunday 10/6 – @ Detroit Red Wings

Streaming Options:

• Points – Radek Faksa (1%)
• Hits – Roman Polak (1%), Blake Comeau (0%)
• Blocks – Jamie Oleksiak (0%)

Detroit Red Wings

After Detroit’s top two players, Dylan Larkin and Anthony Mantha, the ownership percentages drop. But you can still find some valuable streaming options in Detroit. Some other players that you should keep an eye on: Taro Hirose (2%), Filip Hronek (27%), Dennis Cholowski(2%)

• Saturday 10/5 – @ Nashville Predators
• Sunday 10/6 – vs Dallas Stars

Streaming Options:

• Points – Tyler Bertuzzi (38%), Andreas Athanasiou (37%)
• Hits – Adam Erne (1%), Justin Abdlekader (0%)
• Blocks – Danny DeKeyser (0%), Patrik Nemeth (0%)

Tampa Bay Lightning

Tampa has more then a few options that fall under the parameters for streaming options. I’m surprised to see some of the ownership percentages on these players. Keep an eye on Anthony Cirelli (8%) and Mathieu Joseph (1%).

• Saturday 10/5 – @ Florida Panthers
• Sunday 10/6 – @ Carolina Hurricanes

Streaming Options:

• Points – Yanni Gourde (31%), Tyler Johnson (26%)
