Cash Game Without UTIL
| POS | NAME | OPPONENT |
|---|---|---|
| LW | Johnny Gaudreau (CGY) | vs. TOR |
| LW | Brad Marchand (BOS) | vs. LA |

| C | Vincent Trocheck (FLA) | at BUF |
| D | Drew Doughty (LA) | at BOS |
| D | Karl Alzner (WAS) | at NAS |
| G | Braden Holtby (WAS) | at NAS |
Marchand has scored in eight of nine games, while Gaudreau and Stempniak have favorable matchups. The bargain-priced Vey has five points in his last six games, and won't require much to return value. Alzner is reliable in terms of shots and blocks, and teammate Holtby has a good shot at a win despite a road matchup.
GPP Without UTIL
| POS | NAME | OPPONENT |
|---|---|---|
| LW | Johnny Gaudreau (CGY) | vs. TOR |
| LW | Patrick Maroon (ANA) | at PHI |
| RW | Vladimir Tarasenko (STL) | vs. WPG |
| RW | Kyle Okposo (NYI) | at CLB |
| C | John Tavares (NYI) | at CLB |
| C | Joseph Blandisi (NJ) | vs. EDM |
| D | John Moore (NJ) | vs. EDM |
| D | T.J. Brodie (CGY) | vs. TOR |
| G | Jonas Hiller (CGY) | vs. TOR |
The Oilers have surrendered 13 goals in their last two games; New Jersey, specifically Blandisi and Moore, could be next to benefit after Tavares and Okposo combined for four goals and three assists against Edmonton on Sunday.
Hiller gets a home start against the injury-riddled and shorthanded Leafs; Gaudreau and Brodie should get on the score sheet as well. Tarasenko broke out of a slump with a goal and five shots Saturday; more could follow against the Jets.

Burakovsky has 13 points in his last 10 games, with only one game in that stretch where he went scoreless. Maroon has seven points in as many games as the Ducks have started to score; teammate Getzlaf has 11 points in his last 10 games.
Gostisbehere has an eight-game point streak, while Martinez has goals in consecutive games. Luongo faces the low-scoring Sabres and has won four of his last starts.
GPP With UTIL
| POS | NAME | OPPONENT |
|---|---|---|
| C | Nazem Kadri (TOR) | at CGY |

| G | Ben Scrivens (MTL) | vs. TB |
| UTIL | Paul Stastny (STL) | vs. WPG |
Kadri should be looked to to provide offense for the shortlanded Leafs; Parise is slumping but could break out against the Stars' at-times shaky defense. He has five or more shots in three of his last four games. Scrivens has two straight wins, having allowed one goal in each. Stastny has a goal and two assists in his last two games, and has a favorable matchup.
