Centers
Steven Stamkos – With some fine mid-priced options to choose from on the wing, the center position looks like the spot to open up the wallet. The marquise matchup of the evening pits two of the top teams in the Eastern Conference (Tampa Bay visits Pittsburgh) against each other and the offensive firepower on the ice will be staggering at times. With that said, Pittsburgh has allowed an Eastern Conference worst 3.43 goals against per game this season and Stamkos has lit them up for two goals and three assists in their two prior meetings this season. With 36 points and 71 SOG in just 22 games, he’s well worth his big-ticket asking price.
