Monahan is the best value option as a 30-goal scorer in his prime facing a plus matchup with the visiting Canucks. Thornton and Sedin are interesting options, both capable of posting multi-point games against any opponent and both sitting at reasonable price points. Anisimov will center Chicago's potent second line and could be the best sleeper pick of the night.
