Friday's Winger Value Rankings
Here are theScore's winger value rankings for Friday, March 18:
Top Options
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Mike Hoffman (OTT) | at BUF | 9 |
| Taylor Hall (EDM) | vs. VAN | 9 |
| Artemi Panarin (CHI) | at WPG | 8 |
| Ryan O'Reilly (BUF) | vs. OTT | 8 |
| Jarome Iginla (COL) | at CGY | 8 |
| Mark Stone (OTT) | at BUF | 8 |
Despite Hoffman scoring seven goals in 33 games, his plus matchup gives him high upside, while his cheap price tag makes him a must play in all formats. Hall, Panarin and O'Reilly have home matchups against woeful defenses and should return value with ease.
Best of the Rest
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Evander Kane (BUF) | vs. OTT | 7 |
| Alex Ovechkin (WAS) | vs. NAS | 7 |
| Corey Perry (ANA) | vs. BOS | 7 |
| Patrick Kane (CHI) | at WPG | 7 |
| Jordan Eberle (EDM) | vs. VAN | 6 |
| Johnny Gaudreau (CGY) | vs. COL | 6 |
| Andrew Ladd (CHI) | at WPG | 6 |
| James Neal (NAS) | at WAS | 6 |
| Daniel Sedin (VAN) | at EDM | 5 |
| T.J. Oshie (WAS) | vs. NAS | 5 |
Ovechkin and Kane are among the most expensive players Friday night and are always a risk to fail to return value. Roster them in tournaments where their ownership percentage will likely be lower.
The rest of the players have plenty of value and DFS owners don't have to expose their lineups to roster them. Oshie and Neal are questionable choices against stingy defensive teams.
Nothing to See Here
| NAME | OPPONENT | VALUE |
|---|---|---|
| Filip Forsberg (NAS) | at WAS | 4 |
| Brad Marchand (BOS) | at ANA | 4 |
| Mikkel Boedker (COL) | at CGY | 4 |
| Loui Eriksson (BOS) | at ANA | 3 |
| David Perron (ANA) | vs. BOS | 3 |
| Bobby Ryan (OTT) | at BUF | 3 |
| Craig Smith (NAS) | at WAS | 3 |
Forsberg and Marchand have been held point-less over their last three games and against stout defenses, be sure they're nowhere near your roster.
