Ivan Provorov has scored a goal in three straight games with the Blue Jackets missing several key forwards.
On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy managers to stream or roster for the rest of the season. The recommended players and goalies can be used in standard fantasy leagues or for daily fantasy games.
Filip Hronek, VAN vs. TOR (45% rostered)
Should Quinn Hughes miss this game, look for Hronek to power play the Canucks' top unit once again. He's played at least 24 minutes in four straight games and notched three assists with eight shots and seven blocks.
Alexander Romanov, NYI at MIN (36% rostered)
Tony DeAngelo, NYI at MIN (35% rostered)
An assist Friday against the Jets now puts Romanov on track to go on a points streak. He continues to contribute in all areas with the Islanders leaning on him more than usual given their slew of injuries; he's had no fewer than four blocks in each of his past six games.
DeAngelo isn't that far behind. He's more of a power-play specialist but he's also played a ton of minutes, including a team-high 27:10 against the Jets, the second straight game where he's played at least 27 minutes. The Wild have the fourth-worst PK in the league at 71.2 percent.
Bowen Byram, BUF at NSH (28% rostered)
Byram's coming off a two-point game and he's scored four points during the Sabres' four-game winning streak. The Preds are playing the second half of a back-to-back after losing to the bottom-dwelling Hawks and expected to start backup Justus Annunen. Sometimes it's hard to pick between Byram and Power because their point totals are nearly identical - they also play PP2 together - but Byram's generally better for hits while Power puts more shots on net. It just depends on what you need.
Darren Raddysh, TB at DET (15% rostered)
In a pinch, Raddysh is always a good streaming option. He's notched an assist in two of his past three games and now plays on PP1 with Victor Hedman in the Lightning's latest PP configuration. It's rare that they play two 'D' on their first unit, but it's been working and it's provided Raddysh with a slight boost in fantasy value.
Ivan Provorov, CBJ vs. NYR (9% rostered)
Can Provorov make it four straight games with a goal? Even with the Jackets playing seven defensemen on some nights due to their glut of injuries up front, Provorov has played over 28 (!) minutes in each of his past three games. He barely trails Zach Werenski in ice time - they play together on the top pair - and they're both way ahead of everyone else, especially with Damon Severson falling out of favor. Provorov can provide points, shots, blocks and some hits.
