While the NHL regular season doesn’t end until Apr. 18, the playoffs are underway in many fantasy leagues this week.
To help you win a title in your league, we called in ESPN fantasy analysts Sean Allen and Victoria Matiash to highlight a prime playoff performer from each club — and in many cases, they are players who are available in a large majority of ESPN leagues.
How we rank: A panel of ESPN hockey commentators, analysts, reporters and editors sends in a 1-32 poll based on the games through Wednesday, which generates our master list here.
Note: Previous ranking for each team refers to the previous edition, published March 15. Points percentages are through Thursday’s games. Available percentages are in ESPN fantasy leagues as of Thursday.
Previous ranking: 1
Points percentage: 68.12%
Brandon Montour (15.3% available): After a slow start due to returning from injury, Montour has started to round back into the form that took the league by storm last season, including 15 points in his past 14 games.
Next seven days: @ NYR (March 23), @ PHI (March 24), vs. BOS (March 26), vs. NYI (March 28)
Previous ranking: 4
Points percentage: 68.31%
Linus Ullmark (6.3% available): If the Bruins keep the strict rotation they’ve had for the bulk of the season, Ullmark gets the Flyers, Bolts, Predators, Panthers, Penguins and Senators to close the fantasy campaign. It’s not a great schedule, but it’s better than what Jeremy Swayman would face.
Next seven days: @ PHI (March 23), @ FLA (March 26), @ TB (March 27)
Previous ranking: 5
Points percentage: 67.39%
