Last week, we discussed some peripheral<\/a> players to add. This week, let’s look at some 2024 Week 10 fantasy hockey depth scorers to acquire. These players are typically drafted later in fantasy drafts. Sometimes, not drafted at all. Depth scorers can be found in free agency in some leagues, but are likely picked up early once they get hot. They are good trade targets because they are supplemental pieces to your team and won’t cost an arm and a leg to acquire. Here are some of the best depth-scoring players to target in a trade in 2024 Week 10 fantasy hockey.<\/p>\n

Week 10 Fantasy Hockey Targets<\/h2>\n

Nazem Kadri<\/a> (C) – Calgary Flames<\/h3>\n

Nazam Kadri hasn’t had the start to the year that fantasy managers have hoped for, but he is starting to heat up. In his six seven games, Kadri has three goals and six points. In that span, he is averaging nearly four SOG per game. You can\u2019t score if you don\u2019t shoot, and Kadri is doing that.<\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, Kadri currently sits with 95 SOG in 29 games, the 11th most in the NHL. He is shooting slightly below his career rate, so that may regress to the mean resulting in a couple more goals.<\/span><\/p>\n

His <\/span>IPP<\/span><\/a> is at an elite level right now at 85%. H<\/span>e\u2019s currently on pace for just over 50 points, which would be his lowest total in a full season since he played for the Toronto Maple Leafs. However, over the last month, he played at a pace closer to 60 points.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Calgary is splitting their power play <\/span>units<\/span><\/a>, but Kadri is still seeing good deployment. Averaging over two and a half minutes on the man advantage and over 18 minutes average TOI, Kadri makes for a good depth asset in most fantasy formats. With a potential increase in production on the horizon, now is a good opportunity to add Kadri while he is available, or a good time to buy low in a trade.<\/span><\/p>\n

Jake DeBrusk<\/a> (LW, RW) – Vancouver Canucks<\/h3>\n

Heading to Vancouver from Boston in free agency<\/a> in the off-season, Jake DeBrusk had a bit of a rocky start<\/a> for the Canucks. With just four points through October, it looked like DeBrusk was on pace for another disappointing fantasy season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The switch flipped for DeBrusk in November, recording seven goals and 11 points in the month. He now sits with 13 goals and 22 points in 27 games. DeBrusk is red hot right now, with ten goals in his last ten games.\u00a0 He is currently on pace to score just shy of 40 goals if he stays healthy this season, and will likely set a new career high before the trade deadline. To add to his fantasy value, DeBrusk is providing good hits and shots peripherals.<\/span><\/p>\n

With top power play deployment and exposure to 4 Nations Face-Off<\/a> talents J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson, DeBrusk has a high ceiling for the rest of the year. All of these facts make him a 2024 Week 10 fantasy depth scorer to trade for.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anders Lee<\/a> (LW) – New York Islanders<\/h3>\n

Anders Lee is in the midst of a strong bounce-back season in Long Island. After scoring just 20 goals in 81 games last season, Lee has already passed the halfway point of his previous goal total.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Isle\u2019s captain has recorded 13 goals in 30 games this season, which puts him on a 35-goal pace. Achieving this would be the second-highest goal total in his career. He\u2019s doing this with a 10.7 <\/span>SOG\/60<\/span><\/a> rate and a shooting percentage below his career average. Lee is the Islanders’ leading scorer and has been relied on heavily for offence during the injury absences of Anthony Duclair and Mat Barzal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The most valuable thing about Anders Lee right now is his availability. He is rostered in 55% of leagues on Fantrax and 44% on Yahoo. Acquiring Anders Lee comes at a low price and risk, with a high upside. Heading into the season, Lee\u2019s ADP was over 433. Today, he can be found in the top 50 players in many fantasy formats. If you are looking for a depth scorer to round out your roster, look no further than Anders Lee.<\/span><\/p>\n
