It's November 8th. Welcome in, this is New York Rangers News Today, where your team meets AI. I'm Corey, with the story. Alright, so we're diving into week 7 of NHL Fantasy Hockey, and there's some exciting action lined up. The Kraken and Hurricanes are set to clash in Finland, with games on Thursday and Saturday.

Just a heads up, both teams are among 5 playing only twice this week, while some others will be busy with 4 games. Definitely keeps the strategy interesting. Then, there's the surprising split of performances this season. The Hurricanes, Wild and Oilers are definitely riding high, while the Blackhawks and Canucks are struggling hard. Those two teams have just 5 games combined this week, making it tricky to cash in on matchups. Streaming goalies from teams like the Flyers and Rangers when they face the Canucks may be where it's at. Moving on to the player ads, we gotta talk about Arseny Gritsyuk. He's got solid deployment with the Devils, playing on their top line, and has potential. His expected goals per 60 minutes is impressive, and he could really deliver the points as the season goes on. So keep an eye on him if you want to boost your roster. Also, Joonas Korpisalo is now stepping up for the Rangers.

After a decent first start, he's likely to shoulder more responsibility in net. The Rangers have been strong defensively, which means Korpisalo might just put up solid numbers.

It could be a good time to give him a shot if you need goalie help.

To wrap things up, it looks like there are some smart pickups to consider this week. Make sure you keep an eye on scheduling and player performances as the season unfolds. It will be interesting to see how these decisions impact your fantasy lineup.
