Vinnie Hinostroza scores in preseason openerVinnie Hinostroza was good for a goal on two shots in Sunday's 6-2 preseason loss against the Vegas Golden Knights.
Advice: Hinostroza took a minus-3 rating in a game which was ugly for the visitors. Five players were at minus-3 or worse, including C Nick Schmaltz with a minus-4. The 25-year-old Hinostroza showed a nose for the goal, lighting the lamp 16 times to go along with a career-high 39 points over 72 games in his first campaign with the Coyotes. He is worth a look as a No. 4 center in fantasy pools or 14 or more teams heading into 2019-20, and as a streaming option when injuries strike your squad. Rotoworld.comVinnie Hinostroza Ari - C,RW -
Cody Eakin opens preseason with two pointsCody Eakin picked up an even-strength goal and an assist on a shorthanded marker in Sunday's 6-2 preseason victory against the Arizona Coyotes.
Advice: Eakin also had a plus-2 rating, three shots on net, a blocked shot, a minor penalty and two hits across 19:29 of TOI. OK, so Eakin is back in midseason form. He offered a hand over the ice, not afraid to get his nose in the action. The Winnipeg native posted career highs in goals (22), points (41) and plus/minus (+19) while averaging 15:23 of TOI. That's about what you can expect again in 2019-20, making him worth a look in deeper fantasy pools in the final rounds. Rotoworld.comCody Eakin VGK - C -
Malcolm Subban goes distance in preseason winMalcolm Subban allowed two goals on 30 shots in Sunday's preseason opener against the Arizona Coyotes.
Advice: Subban allowed a goal exactly four minutes in against Ilya Lyubushkin, and he coughed up two goals in the first 9:08. However, after Vinnie Hinostroza's goal midway through the first he didn't give anyone else a chance. Max Pacioretty took over offensively and had a hat trick to give Subban all the support he needed. Subban will work as the understudy to Marc-Andre Fleury, but if something happens to the start, Subban has proven he can be a valuable fantasy commodity when starting.

Max Pacioretty opens preseason with hat trickMax Pacioretty registered a hat trick in Sunday's preseason opener against the Arizona Coyotes and he also added an assist.
Advice: The 30-year-old Connecticut native registered 22 goals and 40 points with a minus-13 rating across 66 games in his first campaign with the Golden Knights after 10 seasons with the Montreal Canadiens. He appeared to get comfortable as the season went on, and he certainly looked comfortable in this one. If he can get back to the 50-point neighborhood he will be a decent fantasy asset in most formats, especially if he can get back into the black in plus/minus rating.

Mikael Granlund appears more comfortableMikael Granlund seems more comfortable with the Nashville Predators.
Advice: "From the onset of training camp, it just seems like he feels like more of a Predator and this is more of his team right now," said Predators GM David Poile. "I’m as optimistic as I can be that we’re going to see the Mikael Granlund that we traded for." Granlund only had one goal and four assists in 16 games with Nashville after he was acquired from Minnesota last year. He should be better in 2019-20 following a full training camp with his new team.
