This season, we plummeted from 64 to 44 returnees, which is likely yet another consequence of the missing 2020 season. We anticipated more grads, more players falling off the list and more newbies as we got further away from 2020, so this is not a shock.

This season, he’s bounced back and is scorching now, dropping two dimes Tuesday for 13 points over his last 13 games. Playing on the No. 1 line, the veteran is getting his most ice time since his first campaign with the Ducks in 2017-18.

With Ingram sidelined at least a week, Snell was getting a chance to start, and while his efforts on Wednesday and Friday (no points or assists) were quite forgettable, he did play 31 minutes on Wednesday, and that got our attention in deeper formats. Snell isn’t jacking up as many three-pointers this month, so that’s something we’d like to see more of, but when he was starting in Portland, he did manage to contribute more offensively. At this point, consider Snell a short-term flier in very deep leagues.

Before a quiet game on Friday, Hayes had scored at least 13 points in three straight games, has really been sinking more buckets the last couple of months, and has gotten a bit more of a chance to start this season — especially lately. But even when he hasn’t played a ton of minutes, he’s been capable of producing (like on Friday, when he flirted with a double-double despite playing just 17 minutes), so give him a look in both redraft and DFS formats.

Dadanov remains in a slump, production wise, but makes for a nice sleeper pick given his talent and the opportunity he’s been given. Don’t forget that this is a dude that had three straight seasons of at least 25 goals with the Panthers.
