We are back with the 2019-20 Fantasy Hockey Week 15 Planner.

From Tyler’s Week 14 Waiver Wire post:

“With Joonas Korpisalo recently undergoing knee surgery, Elvis Merzlikins has become the number-one goaltender in Columbus.

The former third-round pick should see the bulk of action going forward, making him a must-own for fantasy owners.”

Elvis has five wins since New Year’s Eve and in the last 14 days leads the NHL with 215 saves.
