    Boost your fantasy team! Discover undervalued forwards such as Adam Fantilli and Mats Zuccarello poised for breakout performances and point-scoring streaks.

    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.

    Adam Fantilli, C, CBJ at FLA (45% rostered) - FanDuel $5,900

    Fantilli and the Jackets’ offense faltered a little without Kirill Marchenko in the lineup, but Marchenko is back and so Fantilli’s back on the table. He played 22:38 against the Wings and scored to goals, perhaps sparking another hot streak. The Panthers are 0-3-1 so far in their six-game homestand and may start backup Daniil Tarasov.

    Jared McCann, LW, SEA vs. DET (29% rostered) - FanDuel $5,800

    McCann was back on the board with his first goal since returning from injury, and his fourth in eight games. The Kraken spread out their ice time so it can be frustrating because it’ll be difficult to get max value out of McCann, but he is still their most dangerous scoring winger. The Wings have lost six of their past eight and allowed at least five goals in four of those games.

    Mats Zuccarello, RW, MIN at VAN (22% rostered) - FanDuel $5,400

    Zuccarello’s been quiet with zero points in two games and has not scored a goal in seven games. However, even with the Wild offense managing to score just two goals in their past two games, this is a good matchup for a talented offense against a very weak defense. Zuccarello’s lack of points is not for a lack of effort; he has 10 shots in his past two games and continues to get a lot of ice time with Kirill Kaprizov.

    Nick Paul, C/LW, TB vs. NYI (6% rostered) - FanDuel $5,200

    Paul keeps thriving with an assist against the Pens to stretch his points streak to five games. He faces another tough test with Ilya Sorokin and the Lightning haven’t had an easy time scoring lately, but that hasn’t stopped Paul, who has Jake Guentzel on his wing on L2 and PP1.
