Digging Deep

MTL RW Joel Armia is not the most consistent performer, and this is why he is rostered in just 5% of Yahoo leagues, but when he’s going good, he is an interesting player for deep leagues. In the past seven games, for example, he has five points (3 G, 2 A) to go with 22 shots on goal and 19 hits. He played with Phillip Danault and Tomas Tatar on Wednesday, so not a bad spot.
