According to the Numbers: Week 4 – Fantasy Hockey Pickups, Drops, Sell-Highs & Buy-Lows
In Week 4 of Daily Faceoff’s fantasy hockey roundup, SportLogiq data spotlights three waiver‑wire gems and a late‑season buy‑low. Mason McTavish (St. Louis, C) leads the NHL in ixG per game (0.70) and 5‑v‑5 ixG (0.50), yet sits on half of Yahoo’s waiver wire—he’s a must‑add for his high‑danger shooting volume. Zach Benson (Buffalo, LW) is the league’s most negative Goals‑Below‑Expected (‑3.74) but is generating quality chances and increased ice time, signaling an imminent scoring breakout. Viktor Arvidsson (Detroit, LW/RW) ranks 5th in Grade‑A chances per game and could become a 30‑goal, 30‑assist regular as his minutes rise. Meanwhile, Wyatt Johnston (Dallas, C) remains a buy‑low despite zero goals and a poor ixG record. These insights help managers target pickups, drops, and high‑upside holds before the next slate.
