Fantasy: 5 moves you need to make in Week 12

Every week, theScore offers a fantasy hockey column detailing a handful of moves you should make. This edition focuses on Week 12. Roster percentages and position eligibility are courtesy of Yahoo.

Add Linus Ullmark

Team: Sabres
Position: G
Rostered: 19%

Adding a Sabres goalie may not sound appealing, but Ullmark is really good. He's 7-5-3 with a .921 save percentage and a 2.44 goals-against average this season. Ullmark was hurt for the bulk of Buffalo's 18-game losing streak, but he's worth rostering in the majority of fantasy leagues now that he's healthy.

Add Adin Hill

Team: Coyotes
Position: G
Rostered: 19%

Hill has started every game for the Coyotes since March 23 with Darcy Kuemper and Antti Raanta injured. The 6-foot-6 24-year-old has filled in admirably during that span, going 4-1-0 with a .910 save percentage entering Sunday. Arizona plays four games this coming week, so Hill could start each contest if Kuemper and Raanta remain out.

Drop Canucks players

The Canucks are undergoing a severe battle with COVID-19. Everyone on Vancouver can be dropped in redraft leagues unless you can place players with postponed games on NA or IR+ spots. It's hard to imagine the team will return to action anytime soon.

Add David Krejci

Team: Bruins
Position: C
Rostered: 21%

The Bruins are one of two teams with five games this coming week. Krejci has just two goals this season but he's been heating up, recording 10 points in his last seven contests. Boston split up the perfection line for the time being, so Krejci has the benefit of playing on a line with David Pastrnak.

Matt Grzelcyk (50%), Nick Ritchie (15%), and Craig Smith (6%) are also worth rostering.

Add Jakub Voracek

Team: Flyers
Position: RW
Rostered: 41%

The Flyers are the NHL's other team with five games this coming week. Voracek hasn't been as productive as Krejci lately, but he still has four points in his last three contests and 13 in his last 12 games.

Joel Farabee (49%) and Kevin Hayes (44%) are also worth scooping up.
