Fantasy hockey weekend watch - Hot streaks to watch this weekend - ESPN

Nearly there. With only six games spread over three days to start next week, this Friday to Sunday stretch sets the table for attentive fantasy managers to hit the upcoming All-Star break on the upswing. As is common this time of week, we're in for the familiar famine/feast/famine rhythm with four games scheduled Friday, a hefty 14 on Saturday, followed by only a pair of matchups Sunday.

After a wobblier start to the month, Vegas is 4-0-1, averaging 4.00 goals per game since Jan. 15, while Florida has been consistently lighting it up since before the holiday break.
