“Unlocking Hidden Gems: Surprising Fantasy Hockey Takeaways from the Thrilling 2024-25 NHL Season!”
Fantasy managers can find some secondary scoring to complement hits
Hits aren’t valued in every league, but in those in which they are, they can make a major difference. When considering hits, fantasy managers used to think of players like Matt Martin, Ryan Reaves and Radko Gudas, guys who would throw the body around a lot and bring minimal offense to the table. That’s not the case anymore. Of the current top 15 hits leaders in the NHL, six of them — Kiefer Sherwood, Will Cuylle, Mathieu Olivier, Paul Cotter, Brady Tkachuk, Eeli Tolvanen — have scored at least 15 goals this season, while 10 of the 15 have posted at least 22 points. Outside of Tkachuk, none of these players are going to be true difference-makers from an offensive standpoint, but there are guys who can help fantasy managers in both hits and be a nice source of secondary scoring, and that’s a potential major advantage depending on your format.
