Here are the top teammate stacks for Sunday, January 10:

C Bryan Little and W Blake Wheeler, Jets (vs. Sabres)

This tandem has been lighting the lamp with regularity, or at least helping others to do so. Wheeler has 11 assists over his last 10 games. He takes enough shots that he'll start to add a goal or two eventually. He's on pace to crush his season high in assists (47), as he's already at 30.

Little hasn't been on quite as torrid a pace, but he has nine points over his last 10 games despite only a lone assist in his last five. The Sabres don't protect the net all that well, either, and the Jets are at home. Swap either out for W Drew Stafford if you want to go cheaper on this line, but know he's the least likely to produce.

C Aleksander Barkov and W Jonathan Huberdeau, Panthers (at Oilers)

Under the tutelage of Old Man Jagr, it looks like the young guns in Florida are thriving. This Panthers squad is riding an 11-game win streak. Over that time, the Panthers have scored five goals in four separate games. They haven't played since Thursday, so they're rested.

Barkov seems to have more explosive talent. He scored four goals over two games against Columbus and Montreal just before the calendar flipped. Huberdeau is the ultimate playmaker. He's got a goal and 10 assists over his last 10 games. Put them together and they'll make you happy.

C Evgeny Kuznetsov and W Andre Burakovsky, Capitals (vs. Senators)

While Alex Ovechkin goes for goal 500, look to this pairing in DFS to provide solid return on investment. Kuznetsov has been a steady hand most of the season, but Burakovsky hasn't provided much fantasy impact. With them on the same line against the Sens, who haven't been playing their best hockey over the last month, the duo should form a solid partnership.

Burakovsky is very inexpensive, too, making this a solid bargain pairing even though Kuznetsov will cost a bit more. Kuznetsov also spends a ton of time on the power play, often skating with Ovechkin, Nicklas Backstrom and T.J. Oshie. Even if Burakovsky doesn't pay off, he doesn't cost much and Kuznetsov could still be a big win.
