Sleepers

[Mathieu]

Who are some of your sleepers for this year guys ?

 

[RandomChickenWing]

I'd have Wennberg, Keller, Shipachyov, Zibanejad at forward, while McAvoy, Skjei, Provorov, and Chabot at D..
Depends on how deep your league will be

 

[PG Canuck]

Another nod for Zibanejad - with the departure of Stepan, Zibby is the undisputed 1C I think.

 

[firstemperor]

Honka, Theodore (minutes), Rantanen, Ship

 

[Krams]

Scott Darling

 

[NeverForget06]

I don't think Jeff Skinner is a sleeper... but he always goes late in the leagues I play in. Will probably score 30 again this year. Same thing goes for Atkinson.. and I would echo the sentiment for his linemate Wennberg.

Skinner was a keeper in my league (not my keeper) and we only retain 5.

Ah, good times.

I was able to grab him off waivers post-draft. I couldn't believe he was still out there, but ESPN rankings are garbage.

 

[Oberyn]

I think Brayden Point and Nick Schmaltz are two guys that are going to have breakout years.

I came here to post exactly this. Especially if Schmaltz sticks with Kane and Point plays wing in top 6.

 

[Vitto79]

Bjorkstrand maybe. Buchnevich top line right now , Bjork in Boston ... Jost in CO. Others I was thinking were mentioned

 

[VanIslander]

Tomas Hyka, the Czech player who led the Golden Knights in preseason scoring with 4 goals and an assist.

 

[JT Kreider]

Zacha with Hall and Palmieri has me very intrigued.

 

[kk]

Ho-Sang should flourish in his first full season with the Isles. I like him a lot. All setups.

 

[PG Canuck]

Also going to throw another vote in for Buchnevich.

 

[canadiensnation]

Keller and Honka. Also i think Elias Lindholm will breakout.

 

[sholi2000]

Ryan Pulock, Ravis Sanheim, Anthony DeAngelo, That kid from Edmonton is impressive (Yamamoto), Hudon from Mtl, and Det's first round pick was impressive in preseason.....for it's worth.

Huge Provorov fan, but I don't sleep he is a sleepy, natural progression and icetime will get him ten more points.

We did our draft today, not many sleepers were picked.

 

[HansonBro]

Eeli Tolvanen...for next year. Sleep on it

Based on what I saw in Yahoo's (bad) rankings:

Dadonov on Florida is ranked in the thousands on Yahoo. He should play on the top line with Huberdeau and Barkov. I drafted him in my two single year leagues.

Nick Leddy is ranked pretty low, and he's going to run the Islanders power play.

Brayden Point playing on the Stamkos and Kucherov line... I always liked him as a prospect.

Anders Bjork is also in the thousands, and he might be on the Bergeron and Marchand line to start the year. He was really good in college last year.

In the nowhere to go but up category I'll add kopitar to that list.

I did a draft Saturday and one Sunday. He was in the thousands when I drafted.

I'd include Toffoli here as well. He's healthy for once. As long as he stays that way, he'll be worth a hell of a lot more this year.
