The Wire Troll: Anthony Beauvillier Helping Keep the Isles in the Hunt

/ Hockey, The Wire Troll

Scandella hasn’t done much offensively lately (notwithstanding an assist on Thursday — the 75th of his eight-year career), but he plays a ton of minutes and given Bogosian’s season-ending injury, he’s guaranteed PT the rest of the way. Scandella has been disciplined lately, going without a penalty so far in January, but the veteran is still seeking his first power play goal of the season. He does the little things well, putting up a team-high three hits on Thursday, and has been seeing steady PP and PK time. Consider Scandella a nice deep league add.

The Wire Troll: T.J. McConnell Pointing Up in Philly

/ Basketball, The Wire Troll

Hill has been maddening to own lately. He scored 20 or more points in two of the previous four games, then took a DNP-CD on Friday. Really?!? However, the Kings are rumoured to be interested in peddling Hill, with Cleveland mentioned as a possible landing spot. There’s a chance he starts with the Cavs (at either guard spot) or comes off the bench as the sixth man, but it seems now that virtually anywhere he moves he’ll have more value, so makes for a good stash. Why the Kings ever signed Hill in the first place is a mystery, but hey, there’s a reason they’ve sucked for so long now, right?

The Wire Troll: Gerald Green Heating Up in Houston

/ Basketball, The Wire Troll

Powell is playing big minutes off the bench in the last couple of games, and has been producing, scoring at least a dozen points in four of the last five games. His touches are up lately and his shooting accuracy has gotten better every season. Powell seems to be establishing himself as a key component in the Dallas rebuilding program — especially given the lack of effective options around him. Jump on this train now, especially in dynasty formats.

The Wire Troll: Shea Theodore Proving Valuable in Vegas

/ Hockey, The Wire Troll

Vanek has been going hog wild lately, enjoying a four-point game last week, an assist last Saturday, and then a five-point explosion on Thursday. It’s the second time in his career he’s put up a five-point game and just the fourth time in the last 20 years a Canuck player has achieved this. Vanek is averaging nearly a point per game this month, and despite seeing less ice time this season, he looks headed for a nice bounce back effort. Of course, having said that, his minutes are rising as the season progresses, so he could be in line for an even bigger second half. Grab the veteran now.
