Here are theScore's winger value rankings for Tuesday, December 8:

Value Rankings
C | W | D | G

Top Options

Name Opponent Value
Mike Cammalleri (NJ) at TOR 9
Jamie Benn (DAL) vs. CAR 9
Tyler Toffoli (LA) at CLB 8
Joel Ward (SJ) at CGY 8
Mike Hoffman (OTT) at FLA 8
Patrick Sharp (DAL) vs. CAR 8
Patrick Marleau (SJ) at CGY 8

Cammalleri has quietly put together a superb start to his 2015-2016 campaign (11G, 19A) and should be inserted into all DFS lineups with his cheap price tag and juicy matchup against the Maple Leafs.

The Stars offense continues to decimate defenses, which increases the values of Benn and Sharp. The two wingers seek to take full advantage of Carolina's weak goaltending.

Best of the Rest

Name Opponent Value
Vladimir Tarasenko (STL) vs. ARI 7
Patrick Kane (CHI) vs. NAS 7
Anders Lee (NYI) at PHI 7
Mark Stone (OTT) at FLA 7
Alex Ovechkin (WAS) vs. DET 7
Alexander Steen (STL) vs. ARI 7
Johnny Gaudreau (CGY) vs. SJ 7

Tarasenko and Steen should have plenty of scoring chances against the feeble Coyotes blue line. Kane has a tough matchup against Predators G Pekka Rinne and can't be trusted to return value at his hefty price.

Name Opponent Value
James Neal (NAS) at CHI 6
Adam Henrique (NJ) at TOR 6
Kyle Okposo (NYI) at PHI 6
Justin Abdelkader (DET) at WAS 6
Milan Lucic (LA) at CLB 5
Filip Forsberg (NAS) at CHI 5
Mikkel Boedker (ARI) at STL 5
Tomas Tatar (DET) at WAS 5

Neal is a pure goal scorer and a must-have in your lineups against a Blackhawks goaltending tandem struggling to dominate this year.

The majority of the players above have favorable matchups and DFSers should feel confident rolling these options in all formats.

Nothing to See Here

Name Opponent Value
Bobby Ryan (OTT) at FLA 4
James van Riemsdyk (TOR) vs. NJ 4
Gustav Nyquist (DET) at WAS 4
Scott Hartnell (CLB) vs. LA 3
T.J. Oshie (WAS) vs. DET 2
Max Domi (ARI) at STL 2
Jakub Voracek (PHI) vs. NYI 1

Van Riemsdyk, Hartnell and Domi are in tough against shutdown defenses and could see their production hindered. Voracek continues to disappoint this season, resulting in his demotion to the Flyers' third line and eliminating virtually all of his DFS value.
