With a packed schedule, several veterans and emerging stars options on Wednesday
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 are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues and can be selected in standard fantasy leagues and/or for daily fantasy games.
Matthew Coronato, RW, CGY @ TB (24% rostered) - FanDuel $5,100
Calgary may soon join Vancouver in dealing off veterans, as they sit 15th in the Western Conference with an 8-13-3 record. Coronato has been one of the few bright spots in a disappointing campaign. He saw his goal streak end at four Sunday, but he dished out an assist, extending his point streak to five, during which he has notched four goals and two helpers. After posting 24 goals and 23 assists last season, he is up to eight and six, respectively, in 23 contests.
Brandon Hagel, LW/RW, CGY @ TB (96% rostered) - FanDuel $6,200
A slow start - one assist in seven games to start the season - had some panicking in regards to Hagel. Patience is a virtue even in fantasy leagues. With seven points his last two games helping Tampa withstand the absence of Brayden Point, Hagel has notched 11 goals and 10 assists in his last 14 contests. Hagel has increased his production from 24 to 44 to 64 to 75 and then 90 points his first five seasons in the league, doing so again may be difficult, though he is up to a point-per-game.
Tyson Foerster, LW/RW, PHI @ FLA (6% rostered) - FanDuel $3,400
Foerster increased his production by 10 points despite a slow start. This season, Foerster reeled off three goals and as many assists his first seven contests of the season before hitting the skids. Foerster notched just one point his next seven appearances - those games separated by a four-game absence - but he is back on the beam lately. He has lit the lamp three times his past three outings, giving hope that he has regained his form.
Sam Reinhart, C/RW, FLA vs. PHI (99% rostered) - FanDuel $7,100
The pressure was on Reinhart to help the Panthers survive without Aleksander Barkov and Matthew Tkachuk. Reinhart has been doing his best, notching 13 goals along with eight assists in 22 games. He potted 57 tallies two seasons ago and 39 last season helping Florida win back-to-back Cups, so he is used to raising his game when needed. Reinhart is on a seven-game point streak as he steps up nightly for the Cats.
Tom Wilson, RW, WAS vs. WPG (92% rostered) - FanDuel $5,400
Wilson finally went from being thought of as just a pugilist who can occasionally score to a winger who teams game plan against due to his offense and not just staying away from his right hand. He notched 33 goals and 32 assists, yet still dished out 233 hits. Wilson has showed that his 2024-25 campaign was not a fluke, as already has 12 goals and 11 assists in 23 contests, with six goals and 11 points in 12 November appearances. Could he make Team Canada's Olympic squad?
Danila Yurov, RW, MIN @ CHI (2% rostered) - FanDuel $2,900
Yurov is listed on Yahoo as a right winger but he is centering Minnesota's first line, which should provide him dual-eligibility shortly. The injury to Marco Rossi has created an opening and opportunity that Yurov has filled and excelled in. Yurov is skating between Kirill Kaprizov and Mats Zuccarello, posting a goal and three assists his past four appearances.
Collin Graf, RW, SJ @ COL (0% rostered) - FanDuel $2,600
When you think of Sharks for your fantasy leagues, Graf is not the first name that comes to mind. That makes sense given the talent around him in San Jose. However, ignore him at your own peril as Graf has a goal and three assists his last four games, skating on the third line while seeing some power play ice time. Graf is at three goals, 10 points, 18 shots on net, 19 hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 22 appearances.
Logan Cooley, C, UTAH vs. MTL (83% rostered) - FanDuel $6,100
Score four goals and get the bold treatment. Those four markers helped Cooley end a brutal slump during which he has just one tally - with four assists - his last 11 contests. Cooley posted 44 points as a rookie, then went to 65 points (25 goals, 40 assists) last season. That fine campaign earned Cooley an eight-year, $80 million contract with the Mammoth in October. He is centering Utah's second line and has notched 21 points in 23 appearances.
