Each day during the 2015-16 season, NHL.com's fantasy staff will identify one player at each position worth owning in DraftKings daily fantasy hockey contests. Based on factors including but not limited to matchups, line combinations, power-play usage, statistical coverage and recent production, we'll provide you with lower-priced options that can help you build a winning lineup.
Paul Stastny, C, St. Louis Blues
DraftKings price: $4,800
Stastny will seek to match a season-high four-game point streak when the Blues host the Ottawa Senators on Monday. The veteran first-line center is always a threat to contribute fantasy points for DraftKings owners as he skates with Vladimir Tarasenko ($7,800) and Alex Steen ($7,100), the Blues' top two scorers, respectively. Rolling with Stastny against the Senators should prove a sound value pick as he has five points (one goal, four assists) and 16 shots on goal in six career games against Ottawa.
