    When teams in the NHL struggle, opportunities arise in the fantasy hockey world begin to emerge. Such is the case with the Edmonton Oilers and their struggling goaltenders Jack Campbell and Stuart Skinner. The veteran Campbell was placed on waivers for the purpose of being sent down to the the club's AHL affiliate, with another veteran likely to be recalled in Calvin Pickard. Should Pickard stay with Edmonton for any period of time, he will be worth a look on a week-to-week basis. We continue coverage of the Canadian NHL teams dominated the NHL news with a look at the Ottawa Senators who are currently mired in tough situations on and off the ice. Recent comments from Brady Tkachuk and Claude Giroux combined with poor performances on home ice have this club at a tipping point with calls for head coach DJ Smith's job ringing loudly throughout Canadian Tire Centre over the past few games. Be weary of some of their peripheral fantasy pieces' value should the club continue to slide. Before wrapping Wednesday's brand-new episode with a look and breakdown of the NHL's 3-game betting board, Flip also touches on the Toronto Maple Leafs fresh off a big come-from-behind win against the Tampa Bay Lightning, one in which Matthew Knies was being deployed on the top line with Mitch Marner and Auston Matthews.

    Three teams have clearly stood out as the early front runners for the Stanley Cup this season, providing a wealth of fantasy hockey options to choose from. However, which team can sustain? Can Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark carry this Boston Bruins club all season long? Will the Colorado Avalanche continue to get Hart Trophy-level performances from Alexander Georgiev and Mikko Rantanen every single night? Or will the Vegas Golden Knights be able to run it back and repeat as Cup champs? All three teams are currently undefeated and clicking on all cylinders. So we take a look into who is hot and who is not from a fantasy hockey perspective on all three studly NHL teams. We also take a look at a couple of mock trades Steele has been working on and take a look into if you should look to trade someone like Roman Josi of the Nashville Predators for Swayman. The other mock trade we discuss would be Steele going after Toronto Maple Leafs captain John Tavares after a red-hot offensive start, giving up both Boston Bruins winger Jake DeBrusk and another young fantasy hockey piece. We serve up our NHL best bets to close out the episode, taking a look at the 11-game NHL betting board, providing our top bets and locks of the night.
