Daily Fantasy Hockey Notebook | 03-05-18

Whether you spend your entire day at work or school, it can be difficult to stay on top of all NHL news. That’s why I have created the Daily Fantasy Notebook, so you can catch up on everything you might have missed throughout the day.

The notebook will be released everyday after teams wrap up their morning skate. It will include a number of things: Injury updates, projected lines, goalie rankings and DFS value picks.

Key Injuries

IN

– Michael Ferland (undisclosed) is expected to play after missing the last four games.
– Marco Scandella (upper-body) is expected to play after leaving Friday’s game.

GAMETIME DECISION

– Esa Lindell (illness) is questionable to play vs. Ottawa.

OUT

– Evan Rodrigues (upper-body) is expected to miss his second straight game.
– Radek Faksa is day-to-day with a foot injury; won’t play on Monday.
– Alex Goligoski (personal) will not play Monday in Edmonton.
– Sven Baertschi is likely done for the rest of the season with a separated shoulder.
