A “Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday league” indeed. Featuring a pair of games on Wednesday, 14 games on Thursday, and one singular battle between the Devils and Sabres on Friday, this three-day span showcases the NHL in its most extreme “feast or famine” mode.
Only Buffalo plays on both Wednesday (vs. Ottawa) and Friday (vs. New Jersey), when almost everyone else is off. So, if possible, consider streaming an available Sabre or two — like forward JJ Peterka, defenseman Owen Power, or goalie Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen. Wednesday’s only other contest pits the Bruins against the Lightning in Tampa.
Of course, the hefty test on Thursday is deciding who to start and who to sit — particularly (but not exclusively) between the pipes. There’s a lot more to comfortably like from the net out with the Penguins against a badly banged-up Columbus team, than between two heavyweights in Colorado, at least on paper. The Rangers are the first team to 100 points and are 9-3-1 since Feb. 28. The Avalanche are 10-2-0 over that same time. In their last meeting (Feb. 5), the Rangers edged Colorado 2-1 in overtime.
A sizzling Jamie Benn and the rest of the Stars could also present a tough challenge for the Pacific-leading Canucks, while matchups between the Knights/Jets and Kings/Oilers — however delectable as matchups outside the fantasy sphere — could be headache-inducing for fantasy managers still in contention. Meanwhile, other goalies are playing teams like the Ducks, Flames, Blue Jackets and Sharks. I’m just sayin’.
