Here are theScore's center value rankings for Sunday, November 22:
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Jeff Carter (LA) | at CAR | 9 |
| Melker Karlsson (SJ) | at CLB | 9 |
| Joe Pavelski (SJ) | at CLB | 8 |
| Henrik Sedin (VAN) | vs NJ | 7 |
The line of Carter, Tyler Toffoli and Milan Lucic have been scorching hot and have an easy matchup against Carolina. Karlsson comes with a bottom tier price but plays on the wing with Pavelski and Joe Thornton.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Boone Jenner (CLB) | vs SJ | 6 |
| Joe Thornton (SJ) | at CLB | 5 |
| Tomas Plekanec (MON) | vs NYI | 5 |
| Anze Kopitar (LA) | at CAR | 5 |
Jenner is your prototypical power forward with 10 goals in the early going. Thornton is far less valuable from a DFS standpoint due to his pass-first mentality. Kopitar has been a disappointment so far but could wake up against the Canes.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| John Tavares (NYI) | at MON | 3 |
| Eric Staal (CAR) | vs LA | 2 |
Tavares' price point doesn't quite match up well in a game against Montreal - especially in cash games. Staal seems to be a shadow of his former self. A change of scenery would help, although it's highly unlikely.
