Week 2 of the NHL Fantasy season is here, and Brock Seguin breaks down the strength of schedule and the best streaming targets to help maximize your lineup all week long.
With the updated Daily Faceoff Strength of Schedule tool factoring in light nights, matchups, back-to-backs and projected starting goalies, Brock identifies which teams offer the most valuable streaming opportunities and which players could give your fantasy roster an early-season boost.
🐧 Pittsburgh Penguins: Tommy Novak headlines the Penguins targets after opening the season with four points in two games while earning a role on PP1. Nic Robertson is getting an opportunity alongside Sidney Crosby and Rickard Rakell, while Ben Kindel offers deeper-league upside with his current power-play role.
🦅 Washington Capitals: Pierre-Luc Dubois stands out as Brock’s preferred Capitals streamer thanks to his top-six role and PP1 usage. Ryan Leonard still brings plenty of shot, goal and hit upside, but his early-season ice time is worth monitoring, while Aliaksei Protas and Ilya Protas come with more questions surrounding their usage.
✈️ Winnipeg Jets: Cole Perfetti continues to look like one of the most intriguing early-season fantasy adds. His increased ice time, huge jump in shot attempts and role on Winnipeg’s top power play could give him legitimate season-long staying power alongside Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor.
🚨 Ottawa Senators: Shane Pinto could be one of the best early-week streaming targets after an impressive season debut that included over 20 minutes of ice time, four shots and four hits. Brock also looks at Thomas Chabot as a potential option on defence with Jake Sanderson sidelined.
Brock also lays out one of his favourite streaming strategies for Week 2: use an Ottawa player for the Senators’ Monday-Tuesday games before potentially pivoting to Washington for Wednesday, Friday and Sunday — maximizing one roster spot for as many as five games.
Whether you’re looking for immediate production, trying to maximize games played or searching for an early-season breakout before the rest of your league catches on, this episode has you covered.
