Vancouver Canucks right wing Brock Boeser could return to their lineup against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday (10 p.m. ET; SNV, MSG+, NHL.TV). Boeser did not play against the Dallas Stars on Monday because of a foot injury.
Boeser (23 percent owned in Yahoo) ranks second among rookies in points per game (1.13) behind Clayton Keller (1.15; C/LW/RW in Yahoo, 64 percent) of the Arizona Coyotes. Boeser leads the Canucks in scoring with nine points (two goals, seven assists) despite playing eight of their 11 games (two healthy scratches, one game missed with injury). He's a prime value pick at $4,200 in DraftKings against the Devils considering he has five points (one goal, four assists), one block and 10 shots on goal in three home games (3.3 DraftKings points per game).
If Boeser is already owned in your season-long format, Winnipeg Jets rookie Kyle Connor (7 percent owned) is a deep-league consolation prize. The 20-year-old rookie has five points (two goals, three assists), 11 shots on goal and is plus-4 in six games since being recalled from Manitoba of the American Hockey League on Oct. 16.
Connor is playing mostly on a line with center Mark Scheifele and right wing Blake Wheeler at even strength. He scored one goal on five shots on goal against the Minnesota Wild on Tuesday and played 1:59 on the first power-play unit with forwards Patrik Laine, Scheifele, Wheeler and defenseman Dustin Byfuglien.
