Nathan Horton- Columbus Blue Jackets, RW(Owned in 33.5% of ESPN leagues) The word is that the talented forward is almost fully recovered from shoulder surgery and could be making his season debut with Columbus this week. With Marian Gaborik out indefinitely, Horton will take over the top RW spot and get plenty of power-play time as well. More known as an elite playoff performer, he should be plenty motivated to jump out to a fast start with his new team. The Blue Jackets have been lacking a true power forward for years, so Horton should make an instant fantasy impact. Wayne Simmonds- Philadelphia Flyers, RW (Owned in 88.5% of ESPN leagues) With three straight two-goal efforts, the 25-year old winger has 24 points (12G/12A) in 38 games. As hot as anyone at the moment, the streaky Simmonds has been a beneficiary of a scorching Flyer's power-play, where he been playing on the primary unit with Giroux and Voracek. Also, he adds extra value in multi-category leagues, where he brings a decent amount of PIM's to the table. Tyler Bozak- Toronto Maple Leafs, C (Owned in 34.9% of ESPN leagues) The Leaf's top center returned to action last night, recording three assists and injecting some life into Phil Kessel, who responded with two goals. With 14 points in 17 games, Bozak needs to be activated in all fantasy leagues immediately, as he and Kessel share undeniable offensive chemistry on the ice. David Desharnais-Montreal Devils, C (Owned in 3.6% of ESPN leagues) Mostly disappointing after his 60-point season in '11-12, the fifth-year center has been showing signs of breaking out with 14 points in his last 18 games. After collecting just one point in 13 October games, Desharnais has been steadily improving each month and has been flashing that past chemistry with Max Pacioretty. It might worth it to stash him away on your bench and hope for a torrid second half. Philipp Grubauer- Washington Capitals, G (owned in 22.5 % of ESPN leagues) The fantasy goalie to own in Washington now, as the 22-year old is making the most of his opportunity while incumbent starter Braden Holtby has been struggling mightily. With a 5-1-2 record and a 2.02 GAA, the Caps have been riding his hot hand in the crease. It's tough to predict how much longer his stint as the top goalie will last, but he should be starting in all fantasy leagues while he is hot.
