Here we are. There are only three weeks left in the NHL regular season and almost all fantasy hockey leagues are in their playoffs. Now is no longer time to think “what will this guy do the rest of the season?” We are now in “what will this guy do for me now?” territory. It has been a great run for Changing on the Fly, so with only three weeks left until the end let’s get straight to some closing strategy.

If you aren’t using up all your allotted roster moves this week, you are probably hurting your chances in day-to-day leagues. Now is the time to make as many transactions as possible and have as many man-games in your lineup as possible. A bunched player is a useless player.

Add Brad Richards, C/LW – Chicago Blackhawks (43% owned)

www.leftwinglock.com or www.dailyfaceoff.com. Both sites keep track of which goalies are starting in net for all teams. Stay up to date and be prepared Sunday.

Add Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, C – Edmonton Oilers (67%)

There is no player in the league hotter right now than http://t.co/j5FWNrhRx3 #BruinsTalk

If I owned Marchand (I don't) and Krejci is available in my league (he isn't, he is on my roster in my injured reserve slot for the past two weeks), I am dropping Marchand for some early-week help, someone that plays two games Monday through Wednesday, and then adding Krejci to my roster Thursday morning.

Add Sean Monahan, C – Calgary Flames (56%)

Much like the Blackhawks, the Calgary Flames play all of their games this week on off days. They have matches at home against Colorado on Monday, Dallas on Wednesday, in Minnesota on Friday, and Nashville on Sunday. Therefore, Flames’ forwards such as Sean Monahan are ideal to get into your lineup if you only have a limited number of moves per week.

Monahan has 28 goals and 24 assists in 72 games and has been productive all year. But he is scorching hot right now. In 17 games since February 14th, Monahan has 12 goals and 8 assists for a 1.18 points per game rate. He should really be owned in more leagues than he is at this point, but if he is still available in yours, he should be grabbed for the stretch run.

Drop Nazem Kadri, C – Toronto Maple Leafs (39%)

Nazem Kadri has what you could call a bad month. First Kadri got suspended by Leafs' management for three games for showing up late for a meeting that added to other undisclosed early season transgressions. By the virtue of playing under the media microscope in Toronto, the situation blew up into a circus and Kadri has taken much criticism from the press and fanbase. He finally got back into the lineup for two games on a western road trip before being suspended by the league for an additional four games for an illegal check to the head of Edmonton’s Matt Fraser.

Things are pretty bleak in Leaf-land right now and with his suspension Kadri won’t be in their lineup until Saturday. The Leafs play four games next week, so if you have an affinity for Kadri, you can hold onto him if you are on a bye week, but I wouldn’t. Anyone playing in the fantasy playoffs this week should drop Kadri and find someone that will at least play some games.
