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.

On the off chance that you find yourself buried in your dynasty league standings this season, it may be time to look towards 2022-23. With this in mind, we draw your attention to Lambert, a Finnish prospect who’s expected to be one of the top picks in this year’s NHL Draft. He’s off to a slow start with his new team, and while some believe he’s no longer a lock for the top five, it would be a shock if he’s not a top 10 pick. Lambert’s skill and speed will make him a real offensive force in time.

Well, he’s getting it done on Broadway now, firing home his first two goals of the season on Wednesday before adding a helper on Friday to prove he can offer more than veteran toughness to the Rangers’ fourth line. Reaves is seeing his most ice time since 2018-19, and while no one will confuse him as a major offensive threat, his enforcer-like presence and periodic goals make him a useful asset in deep formats.

December was Severson’s best month so far, and he’s building off that, having already surpassed last season’s goal total. With his size and shot, he’s a real asset — especially when he’s producing consistently like he’s been the past few weeks.

Not much has gone right for the Isles so far, but the development of Dobson — the team’s leader in Fantasy points — has been a very pleasant surprise. After picking up a PP assist on Sunday, he now leads all Isle blueliners in goals, helpers, points and shots on goal. Dobson had a quiet November offensively, but has gone off for six points in just nine games this month, while seeing a big boost in minutes. He should soar past his career best in points in no time.

Nichushkin’s production has led to an uptick in PT; on both Wednesday and Friday, for instance, he paced all Colorado forwards in ice time. At 6’4″, 210, he has amazing size for a winger, and given how powerful his skating is, there’s amazing upside here. If Nichushkin is finally developing a bit of consistency and will battle game in and game out, look out.

Need help in hits? Katchouk can provide some assistance in this department, piling up four on Friday, giving him 25 in the last seven games alone. Over this same stretch, the rookie has pitched in with three helpers, and has 10 PMs so far this season, so could deliver a boost in this area as well.
