Mikhail Sergachev caught fire this week for the Tampa Bay Lightning and is the top stud of the low ownership players. The rookie defender is owned in only 39 percent of Yahoo leagues and finished the week with six points in four games, scoring multi-point games in each of his past three games. He had three goals, three assists, two power-play points and six shots on goal. With his exposure to one of the top offenses in the NHL, he's a must own going forward, especially in keeper league formats.
Chris Stewart has been a fantasy beast for the Minnesota Wild, and an offensive savior for their injury-depleted lineup. In two games this week Stewart scored in each, including a power-play goal, and had six shots on goal. Stewart (9 percent owned) is skating on the first line with Mikko Koivu and Jason Zucker, and on the first power-play unit. He has a point in all six games this season and is getting solid category coverage providing 14 shots on goal and five hits, although he has no penalty minutes. Until forwards return from injury, Stewart is a great add in the short term and a great value target in DFS contests.
A lot of the talk about the Dallas Stars this season was centered around their top line of Tyler Seguin, Jamie Benn and Alexander Radulov but one forward who had a standout week was center Radek Faksa (1 percent). He scored in all three of the Stars games this week with two goals, three assists, two multi-point games and six shots on goal. Faksa is centering the third line between Antoine Roussel and Tyler Pitlick and could see some power-play time if his production continues.
