Bargain Plays - Beagle, McGinn and Grenier Present Great Feeder Options

Bob Stanton / USA TODAY Sports

Here are the top sleeper picks for Tuesday, March 22:

C/RW Jay Beagle, Capitals (at Senators)

In an effort to shake things up and get Alex Ovechkin and Nicklas Backstrom going again, Beagle has been skating on the right wing alongside the two in practice. Beagle is not known as an offensive player whatsoever, but this opportunity is too good to pass up.

He's priced just a hair above the complete minimum salary on most DFS sites. Beagle's chance to play with the big boys can't be overlooked, especially against the Senators, who have allowed the third-most goals in the entire league. All Beagle needs is a handful of shots to return decent value.

LW Jamie McGinn, Ducks (at Canadiens)

The move to Anaheim has done wonders for McGinn. He has five goals in 10 games since joining the Ducks, including one in three straight games. He is now playing with Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry.

McGinn's physicality is a perfect fit with Getzlaf and Perry's bruising style of game. They combine for one of the biggest lines in the NHL, and certainly one of the most highly-skilled. They should be able to dominate down low against the depleted D core of the Canadiens.

RW Alexandre Grenier, Canucks (at Jets)

While the Backstrom/Ovechkin and Getzlaf/Perry duos are no doubt two of the best for a low-priced player to tag along with, Daniel and Henrik Sedin are no slouch either.

Grenier has played just five NHL games, recording zero points. Considering his price is as low as it comes in DFS circles, he makes for a great tournament flier on the fact alone that he's playing with the Sedins.

Jannik Hansen had been a bottom-six player his entire career, but had 19 goals in 57 games this season because of his chance to play with the Sedins.
