On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy hockey managers to stream, roster or utilize in standard leagues and/or DFS games. Players and goalies highlighted for streaming in standard leagues are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues.
Lane Hutson, MTL at OTT (99% rostered) - FanDuel $6,600
The hype surrounding Hutson has dimmed a little in this his second season. His production, though, has moved to a higher level. Hutson produced six goals and 66 points in 82 games last season before adding five helpers in five playoff appearances. This season, Hutson has already lit the lamp 11 times while adding 54 assists and a plus-28 rating in just 63 appearances. He has hit the scoresheet in four straight and 10 of last 11 contests, playing a key role for Montreal as they try and hold onto a top-third spot in Atlantic Division.
Jakob Chychrun, WSH at PHI (99% rostered) - FanDuel $7,000
The Capitals dealt John Carlson to Anaheim at the trade deadline, heaping more responsibility of Chychrun. The 27-year-old blueliner has been up to the task this season, already notching a career-best 22 goals and 50 points in 63 contests. Chychrun finally put it all together last season, his first in the US Nation's Capital, and he has built off that success this season. Roll with the big named blueliners on a light night in the NHL.
