-- Despite having multiple forwards injured (Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry, Ondrej Kase, Patrick Eaves), the Anaheim Ducks have eight players in NHL.com's top 200 and the fifth ranked goalie. The second line of rookie left wing Max Comtois (57th in Yahoo) and Jakob Silfverberg (69th in Yahoo) have helped them overcome injuries. Center Ryan Kesler recently returned from a hip injury and scored a goal in his first game back. If the Ducks continue to get elite play from goalie John Gibson (6th in Yahoo), they are an attractive team to target on the waiver wire.
Players worth adding: Jakob Silfverberg, RW; Ryan Kesler, C; Josh Manson, D; Max Comtois, LW; Adam Henrique, C; Hampus Lindholm, D
-- The Carolina Hurricanes are one of the trendiest fantasy teams to target off the waiver wire with second-liners Jordan Staal, Justin Williams and Warren Foegele ranked in Yahoo's top 60. The Hurricanes are tied for fifth in the NHL with the Colorado Avalanche in goals (17 entering Saturday) and they're generating the second most shots per game (38.5). Backup goalie Curtis McElhinney has won two straight starts with a .930 save percentage and is worth streaming as a short-term injury replacement. Rookie right wing Andrei Svechnikov (80th in Yahoo) has made the most of his 11:56 per game with four points (two goals, two assists) in four games. Micheal Ferland has found chemistry with Sebastian Aho on the top line and is covering all categories with two goals, three assists (one on power play), a plus-5, 14 shots on goal and nine hits.
Players worth adding: Jordan Staal, C; Micheal Ferland, LW/RW; Curtis McElhinney, G; Justin Williams, RW; Warren Foegele, LW
