Nugent-Hopkins (C, 29 percent owned) scored his 20th goal of the season and had an assist with five shots on goal against the Panthers. He has scored a goal in back-to-back games and has seven points (four goals, three assists) and 22 SOG in seven games since returning from injury March 3. As long as he maintains exposure to McDavid the rest of the fantasy season, Nugent-Hopkins will be a must-own fantasy asset.
Rattie (RW, less than 1 percent owned) had a goal and an assist, his first points of the season, against the Panthers. He played 15:17 and had six SOG in his third game of the season. Rattie ($3,500 in DraftKings) will be a value flier for DFS players against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday (5 p.m. ET; SUN, SNW, NHL.TV), and fantasy owners should monitor him to see if he remains with McDavid down the stretch. The Oilers have 11 games left, including four against non-playoff contenders.
