Goalie

Robin Lehner, BUF vs NJD ($7,400): Lehner and the Sabres went into the All-Star break hot with three straight victories on the road against the Western Conference. Riding Lehner at his value Tuesday is worth considering against the Devils, as he is coming off of back-to-back shutouts.

Center

Mathew Barzal, NYI vs FLA ($6,300): With 51 points —16 goals — Barzal has been a major contributor for the Islanders, who have averaged 3.38 goals per game, tied for second most in the NHL. Additionally, the rookie pivot has four goals and 10 assists on the power play. Facing Florida should bode well for Barzal, as it's allowed 35.3 shots on goal per game, most in the league.

Brayden Point, TB at WPG ($6,200): With 44 points — 20 goals — Point has been a great second-line center for Tampa, which has averaged a league-high 3.53 goals per game. He also averages over two minutes on the power play.

Wing

Viktor Arvidsson, NSH vs CHI ($6,400): Arvidsson went into the break scoring goals in three of four games with an assist mixed in. The Swede hasn't been as good as last season, but he's still dangerous for a Predators team that has been very good at home with a 16-4-3 record.

Dominik Simon, PIT vs SJ ($4,200): Simon has benefited from skating on Sidney Crosby's line. The 23-year-old has three goals and an assist over his current three-game point streak. Over their last 12 games, the Sharks have allowed 31 points — 11 goals — to left wings.

Jordan Eberle, NYI vs FLA ($5,900): Eberle has 17 goals and 22 assists, including a goal in back-to-back games heading into the All-Star break. Against the Panthers, who have allowed eight goals and 10 assists to right wings over their last 11 games, Eberle has a great shot to produce at a suppressed salary.

Defense

Erik Johnson, COL at VAN ($5,200): In six games leading up to the break, Johnson had points in four of those contests with one goal and four assists. The Canucks have allowed defensemen to rack up 23 points — four goals — over their last 10 games. Johnson has benefited from the absence of Tyson Barrie, with his ice time with at least 26 minutes in eight of the 13 games Barrie has been absent.

Keith Yandle, FLA at NYI ($4,700): There is a lot to like about Yandle on Tuesday. The Islanders have allowed 29 points to defensemen in their last 11 games, and overall the most fantasy points to blueliners. The American has had success against the Isles, especially of late as he has at least one point in each of his last six games against them.
