Here are theScore's winger value rankings for Sunday, January 17:
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Justin Williams (WAS) | vs NYR | 8 |
| T.J. Oshie (WAS) | vs NYR | 8 |
| Kyle Okposo (NYI) | vs VAN | 8 |
| Artemi Panarin (CHI) | vs MON | 8 |
| Brock Nelson (NYI) | vs VAN | 8 |
Williams has provided great secondary scoring depth to the Caps, and has totaled four points over his last few games. He and Oshie are cheap options facing a backup goaltender.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Alex Ovechkin (WAS) | vs NYR | 7 |
| Patrick Kane (CHI) | vs MON | 7 |
| Nikita Kucherov (TB) | vs FLA | 7 |
| Dylan Larkin (DET) | vs PHI | 7 |
| Tomas Tatar (DET) | vs PHI | 6 |
| Phil Kessel (PIT) | vs CAR | 6 |
| Tyler Toffoli (LA) | at ANA | 6 |
| Corey Perry (ANA) | vs LA | 6 |
| Gustav Nyquist (DET) | vs PHI | 5 |
| Rick Nash (NYR) | at WAS | 5 |
| David Perron (ANA) | vs LA | 5 |
| Carl Hagelin (PIT) | vs CAR | 5 |
Arguably the two most dynamic players in the NHL - Kane and Ovechkin - have plus matchups and are on hot streaks. Their value takes a slight knock due to the projected high-ownership rates and their expensive price tags.
A change of scenery should benefit both Perron and Hagelin.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Daniel Sedin (VAN) | at NYI | 4 |
| Radim Vrbata (VAN) | at NYI | 4 |
| Jeff Skinner (CAR) | at PIT | 4 |
| Mats Zuccarello (NYR) | at WAS | 3 |
| Jakub Voracek (PHI) | at DET | 3 |
| Max Pacioretty (MON) | at CHI | 2 |
| Brendan Gallagher (MON) | at CHI | 2 |
Tough to invest in Montreal's top two forwards as they square off against the red-hot Corey Crawford.
