The rookie has 40-point upside, proving he can excel in the AHL with 24 goals and 41 points in 48 games this season. Looking to take a late-season flier on someone? Carcone could fit the bill as he tries to breathe some life into a disastrous season for Arizona.

Yes, Howard’s PT is very inconsistent, but this game proved that he can still be useful when given the chance. His work on the defensive glass hasn’t been good lately and his bucket count is down this season, but if you had him active this week, you got your money’s worth with a vintage performance.

But there was a reason he was taken 25th overall in 2019, so be patient. Don’t forget that last season McMichael managed over 0.8 points per game in the AHL as a rookie; there’s plenty of upside here.
