Tatar was called up to try and spark the Red WIngs secondary scoring. Tatar has 19 G, 22 A and a +13 in 44 AHL games this season. The crafty Slovak will play on the Wings second line with Datsyuk and Filppula, which gives him a great opportunity to produce.
Allen was brought up to serve as Brian Elliott's backup while Halak is out with a groin injury. He has no fantasy value.
With Seidenberg missing todays game it looks like rookie Dougie Hamilton will get a chance to play with Chara. This is a great opportunity for the young defenseman if he sees top pair minutes with big Z.
Markstrom is regarded as one of the NHL's best goalie prospects, had a shot to make the Panthers in camp but it looks like they're going to with Jose Theodore and Scott Clemmensen for another season.
Hamilton has good offensive instincts and if he can score on the Power Play it would make him worth a fantasy roster spot.
Markstrom could be this years' Cory Schneider if he lives up to all the hype. If you're feeling gutsy, take a flier on him in your draft's last round.
Dumoulin, a second round pick in 2009, just completed his junior year at Boston College, scoring seven goals and 28 points en route to a National Championship.
