NHL Fantasy Waiver Wire: Week 13 Add/Drop List

Updated Mar. 4, 2020 7:55 p.m. ET

NHL Fantasy Hockey Waiver Wire: Letting You Know Which Players You Should Add/Drop Heading Into Week 13, Complete Injury Update, Players of the Week, and More!

Welcome back to our weekly NHL Fantasy Hockey waiver wire. We didn’t have an article last week due to the holiday’s but we’re back. There are some new players to add to your pool for all three formats, there is also some new injuries listed, as well as players on cold streaks. We’ve also included three new players of the week, so everything you need to know is right here.

Like always, we’re here to help you gain the most out of your hockey pool. Most NHL fantasy pools consist of a weekly total before being reset. So, it’s best to maximize your scoring during that week to either stay in the lead or try to climb the standings. The toughest part is always releasing players, but if you’re in a pool that isn’t very active, you can take those chances.

If you’re in a pool that everyone is involved in daily, at least keep your star players even if they’re going through a cold streak, so they’re not picked up when you release them.

Top Forward of the Week: Justin Williams (WSH) – (4GP, 3G, 4A, 7PTS, +8)

More from Puck Prose

    Justin Williams had an amazing week for the Capitals last week scoring seven points in four games. Williams isn’t usually a hot commodity in hockey pools so if he is available which he most likely will be, take a shot on him cause he’s only going to improve down the stretch as he gets more ice time with Washington’s better players. The same goes if he’s taken and you wish to trade for him, just make sure you’re giving up a player of equal or almost lesser value this way you’re not losing the deal if he has a few cold weeks.

    Top Defenseman of the Week: Victor Hedman (TB) – 3GP, 0G, 5A, 5PTS, -3)

    The best defenseman from last week has to be Victor Hedman, but unlike Williams, Hedman is always selected in the draft and rarely dropped. If you see someone drop him if he gets hurt, take him and fill and IR spot on your roster because Victor has the potential to lead the NHL in scoring this year. But if you wish to acquire him in a trade, like always, make sure you’re not giving away too much, always match so you don’t lose the deal.

    Top Goalie of the Week: John Gibson (ANA) – (2GP, 2W, .961SV%, 1.49GAA)
    The best goalie of the week is unquestionably John Gibson, and like Hedman, Gibson is usually taken and rarely available. But if you can swing a deal for him, especially in a keeper league, do it, Cause he’s only going to get better as the games and seasons go by.
