On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy managers to stream or roster for the rest of the season. The recommended players and goalies are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues and can be selected in standard fantasy leagues or for daily fantasy games.
FORWARDS:
Taylor Hall, LW, CAR @ DET (32% rostered)
Hall has found a groove with seven goals and six assists over his last 12 games with nearly half of that production - six points - coming on the man advantage. After playing only four contests last season due to a shoulder injury and then a torn ACL, it's been a solid rebound season for Hall. He struggled initially after coming to Carolina fro Chicago, but as noted in the first sentence, he is back on the beam and on a roll.
Ryan Donato, C/LW/RW, CHI @ WAS (45% rostered)
Donato saw his four-game point streak end Wednesday, but during that stretch he notched six goals and a pair of assists. As evidence of just how impressive Donato's campaign has been, his 59 points surpass his prior career-high by 28 points and is greater than the combined total of his prior two seasons combined. Donato should be in line for a huge payday after signing a two-year, $2 mil deal with Chicago in July 2023.
Marcus Johansson, LW, MIN @ NYI (1% rostered)
M-Jo was all over the place Wednesday, notching a short-handed goal along with two assists, one of which came on the man advantage. The three-point performance tied his season high. Johansson is having a strong finish to the regular season as the Wild try to lock up a playoff spot, collecting four goals and 11 points in 15 games since the beginning of March, which is half his season output and matches his 2023-24 total.
DEFENSEMEN:
Tony DeAngelo, NYI @ MIN (23% rostered)
DeAngelo continues to log heavy minutes on the Islander blueline. Despite being scoreless the last two contests, ADA has notched 16 points in 27 games while skating 23:30 an appearance. Noah Dobson still has a key role, but DeAngelo is counted on to provide offense from the backline.
