Fantasy Hockey Waiver Picks: Celebrini Shines – ESPN

Introducing the Fantasy Hockey Waiver Picks

In the world of fantasy hockey, finding hidden gems on the waiver wire can make or break a season. This week, the spotlight shines on Macklin Celebrini, who has been quietly making waves in the fantasy hockey world. Despite his growing rostership, Celebrini still isn’t receiving the fantasy attention he deserves. After a brief slump following his return from injury, he has found his stride, averaging an impressive 3.35 fantasy points per game over the San Jose Sharks’ last six games. As the focal point of San Jose’s offense, Celebrini should be universally rostered and started. Check your league as he’s still available in more than a third of them.

Valeri Nichushkin: Reclaiming His Spot

Valeri Nichushkin, right-winger for the Colorado Avalanche, has been a standout performer, reclaiming his spot at the top of the Avs’ depth chart. With a four-game slate this week, including favorable matchups against teams like the Sabres and Hurricanes, Nichushkin is poised for a strong showing. It’s time to get him back into your lineups and capitalize on his potential to rack up points.

Kent Johnson: The Breakout Performance

Kent Johnson of the Columbus Blue Jackets is another player to keep an eye on. Riding a five-game point streak and averaging 2.82 fantasy points per game since returning from injury, Johnson is finally delivering the breakout performance fans have been waiting for. With the Blue Jackets showing signs of resurgence, Johnson’s skillset and opportunity make him a valuable addition to fantasy lineups.
