Pick up K.Connauton if on waiver wire
Kevin Connauton
I feel like covering a player who has limited NHL playing time, to see if he will increase or decrease in terms of a Fantasy hockey value to my team for the remainder of the season.
Current Points: 21 GP, 3 G, 3 A, 6 PIM, +0, 26 Hits, 16 Blocks, 1 GWG 383 FPTS. 18.24 FPPG
Being claimed by Columbus was the best thing ever for his current season value, moving away from the Stars to the Jackets will allow him more PP time and increase in 5V5 TOI
Advanced Stats 5V5 (272.TOI): 1 G, 2 A, 3 Pts, 20 shots, 5.00 Sh%, 4:40 Shots per60
Advanced Stats 5V4 (21.34 PP - TOI): 1 G, 1 A, 2 Pts, 6 Shots, 8 FF, 98.2 PDO, 16.67 Sh%, On Ice Sh% 18.18
I’m looking at Connauton and thinking if you want a good injury replacement in 15 + team leagues I would look at Connauton, he has the high draft pedigree along with solid offensive skills to go with good skating.
In 9 December games thus far, he collected 4 Points to go with 2 PPP. His pp TOI has increased by nearly 2 minutes a game which to a player with his skills is bound to cause an increase in point production, look for close to 32 points at the end of the season.
