Jason Chen and Michael Amato return with their weekly fantasy hockey talk and discuss:

- the postponed Flames at Kings game due to the L.A. wildfires has been re-schedule to April 17, which means matchups that lost one game won't be able to make it for it until the last day of the NHL season

- how many points should a goalie goal count for?

- Oilers captain Connor McDavid and Canucks defenseman Tyler Myers face potential suspension after getting match penalties in Saturday's dustup

- Devon Levi returns to the net for the Sabres, who now carry three goalies for their road trip

- Frederik Andersen returns from injury for the Hurricanes while Martin Necas' scoring pace slows

- John Klingberg elects to sign with the Oilers, but his fantasy value is muted with Evan Bouchard blocking his path to the power play

- Mathew Barzal is scoring at a point-per-game pace, Marcus Hogberg is on fire for the Islanders

- Linus Ullmark returns to the Senators soon, but they're a wildly unpredictable bunch

- the Penguins waive veteran Tristan Jarry and call up Joel Blomqvist in a not-so-surprising move

- John Tavares is injured at practice and the Maple Leafs call up Fraser Minten

- Michael Kesselring takes over Utah's power play with Mikhail Sergachev injured

- J.T. Miller's fantasy value cannot rise if the Canucks keep struggling

- Why Logan Thompson should or shouldn't get the majority of the starts for the Capitals going forward
