Stars left winger Mason Marchment is red-hot, Jonathan Drouin is getting a ton of minutes for the Avalanche and Jamie Drysdale is set for his Flyers debut.

Sleepers and Keepers Podcast: Add Minnesota's Brock Faber and Dallas' Thomas Harley

Mason Marchment, LW, DAL vs. MIN (42% rostered)

Marchment's four-game points streak was snapped but not to worry — he gets another crack at the Wild in the second half of their home-and-home series. The advantage this time is the Stars are at home, where Marchment has been much more productive with 19 points in 21 games compared to 11 points in 18 games on the road. On home ice, the Stars will be able to dictate the matchups. 

Thomas Harley, D, DAL vs. MIN (38% rostered)

The Stars will have last change on home ice and Harley's usage has ticked up, averaging over 23 minutes per game over the past three games. He's filling in for the injured Miro Heiskanen, and while it might take Harley a little time to adjust, he's their best option on the blueline. 

Jonathan Drouin, LW, COL vs. VEG (27% rostered)

Drouin played 28:16 (!) against the Bruins in their previous game. Playing with Nathan MacKinnon gives Drouin a huge boost in fantasy value even though he had his three-game goal streak snapped. With that much ice time, Drouin should be able to fill a few categories on the scoresheet. Historically, Knights-Avs matchups tend to feature fewer goals than you'd expect, but if Drouin continues to get this much ice time, surely he'll be on the ice for at least a goal or two. 

Jamie Drysdale, D, PHI vs. MTL (19% rostered)

Drysdale is already in Philly, wearing Ivan Provorov's old No. 9, and he's expected to make his Broad Street debut against the Habs. It's uncertain where Drysdale will play in the lineup, but he's the right-hand smooth-skating 'D' the Flyers have coveted, and he will surely get top-four minutes, perhaps alongside Travis Sanheim. The bonus will come on the power play, where the Flyers' 32nd-ranked PP could use a ton of help, and it's a good matchup against the Habs' 28th-ranked PK. Drysdale might even be a long-term hold depending on how the Flyers use him.  

Pavel Dorofeyev, LW, VEG at COL (0% rostered)

Drafted 79th overall in 2019, Dorofeyev has somehow managed to stay with an organization that doesn't hesitate to deal prospects. That's good for Dorofeyev, who was AHL Henderson's top scorer last season and now playing L2 with Chandler Stephenson and Mark Stone. While he's still more of a complementary player and the shot count is really low, making Dorofeyev a boom-or-bust play, he's playing with excellent linemates and gets a chance to extend his goals streak to three games against a team with little depth and shaky goaltending.
