Hurricanes' Jeff Skinner: Will play Tuesday

Skinner (undisclosed) will be in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Capitals.

Analysis:

Skinner is reportedly a bit dinged up, but he'll nonetheless give it a go against the Capitals. The 24-year-old winger will slot into his usual top-six role for Tuesday's contest, skating with Derek Ryan and Lee Stempniak on Carolina's top line. The 2010 first-round pick has only tallied two points in his last nine games, but he's notched a respectable total of 37 points in 50 games this season, making him a useful option in the majority of fantasy formats.
