From Tyler’s Waiver Wire Post:

The veteran forward from the Hurricanes is hitting his stride at the right time for fantasy owners. With Carolina being one of the hottest teams in the NHL at the moment, Justin Williams has more than played his part. As the captain on a team full of youngsters, the wily vet seems to have been drinking from the fountain of youth. In the past 12 games, Williams has racked up an impressive four goals and nine assists.

Averaging over a point per game isn’t the most impressive part to his game, in fact, it’s his volume of shots on goal that sets him apart from the other waiver options. In the past month, Williams has 46 shots on goal, which is top-10 in the NHL. In the recent 2-1 loss to the Rangers, Williams contributed 10 shots. If Williams can increase his shot percentage, he could help a lot of fantasy owners in the postseason.

Mats Zuccarello was traded by the New York Rangers to the Dallas Stars ahead of the trade deadline, had a goal and an assist in his first game, but ended up breaking his wrist blocking a shot and will miss the next month!
