Hey everyone. After taking a day off from NHL fantasy I'm back again. If you follow some of the players from my last post then you found some studs in MacKinnon, Gaudreau, Mantha, Halak and Barrie. Keep reading for today's NHL lineup projections for February 22 but first read below to understand how it all works.


The site that I like to use is FanDuel and the projections are based on their main slate of games . So you have 2 tiers of lineup for the Center ( C ), Wings (W), Defenseman (D), and Goalie (G ) positions. Depending on the slate of games I will usually name 3 players for each position. The first tier is made up of players from a moderate to a high price. The second tier is made up of low to moderate price players. You'll need a combination of both to use your total salary wisely. One heads up is that you may find the same goalies on both tiers and that's cause goalies are fairly high in price.


Tier One

C : Dylan Larkin (7300), Jonathan Toews (7700), Nathan MacKinnon (8000)

W: Cam Atkinson (7100), Artemi Panarin (7800), Alex DeBrincat (7400)

D: Erik Gustafsson (5700), Mark Giordano (6300), Seth Jones (5500)
