| Evgeni Malkin |
Centers:
High Salary: Evgeni Malkin
Malkin has been playing very well as of late. In his last game, he scored a hat trick, and is currently up to 48 points on the season. He has eight points in his last five games. Even though facing New Jersey will make getting the win for Malkin and the Penguins harder, Malkin should still have a good showing and should most likely score one or two goals in the game.
High Value: Joe Thornton
Thornton has been on fire recently, currently being on a nine-game point streak. He has 20 points in his last 15 games and will have a fairly easy matchup tonight against the Colorado Avalanche. Thornton is your pick if you want a center that does not have an expensive fantasy salary and can produce fantasy points for you.
Wingers:
High Salary: Patrick Kane
Kane has definitely been a key player for the Blackhawks this season, most likely the best player of all 30 teams currently in the NHL. Kane leads the league this season in goals (30), assists (43), and points (73). With Kane facing the struggling Hurricanes tonight, he should add to his stats of the historic season he is currently having.
High Value: Mikkel Boedker
Boedker is having a decent season currently with 12 goals and 22 assists. Although he failed to show up on the scoresheet on Monday, and the fact that he is having an up-and-down season, he should be a very good matchup as he faces Winnipeg tonight.
Defensemen:
High Salary: Erik Karlsson
Karlsson has proved in many recent seasons that he is one of the best defensemen in the entire NHL, and that he can definitely produce fantasy points in almost all of his games. If you are looking for an expensive defenseman for Tuesday night that can also pick up plenty of points, Karlsson is your man.
High Value: Aaron Ekblad
Ekblad is currently on a two-game point streak after recently coming back with an injury. Ekblad, the 2014-15 Calder Trophy winner for the league's top rookie is showing that he is capable of earning fantasy points at a non-expensive fantasy price.
Goaltenders:
High Salary: Roberto Luongo
Luongo has proven all season and throughout his long NHL career that he is truly one of the best goalies currently in the NHL, and he and the Panthers have shown that they can play really well. They have surprised many with their great play this season.
High Value: John Gibson
Gibson has proven so far in his rookie season that he is one of the best backup goaltenders currently in the league. He currently has a record of 11-7-2.
