The Wire Troll: Jason Zucker Producing For Wild

No player has more points in the last week than Bennett. The Flames’ top pick from 2014 has three goals, six points, a plus-3 rating, eight penalty minutes, a power play point and eight shots on goal in four games. He’s only averaging 12:51 of ice-time per game, but Bennett is obviously making the most of it. Calgary is young. Calgary is talented. Calgary will eventually be perennial playoff contenders, and youngsters like Bennett are a big reason why.

The Wire Troll: Dante Cunningham Soars For Pelicans

Hardaway looked like a serious force off the Hawk bench in the season opener, going off for 12 of his 21 points in the fourth quarter to spur Atlanta to a win. He canned a trio of treys, but didn’t contribute much in the way of peripheral stats.

The Wire Troll: Rookies Rising

One of a few defensemen currently scoring at above a point-per-game pace, the former Michigan Wolverine is everything Columbus hoped for when it picked him on draft day. In three games, Werenski has two goals, four points, a minus-1 rating, three power play points, 14 shots on goal and four defensive points, depending on Fantasy formats. He’s doing all this while skating an average ice-time of 22:12 per game, too. Impressive.

The Wire Troll: Cristhian Adames Battling For PT

Yes, he strikes out a lot and doesn’t exactly hit for a good BA, but middle infielders that flirt with 20 homers in less than half a season don’t exactly grow on trees. Schimpf is an extreme flyball hitter. In fact, no one in baseball with at least 250 plate appearances is close to what he’s doing in that regard. But you add in his runs and his overall extra-base pop, and we can’t understand why this dude isn’t getting more Fantasy love.
