Gridin rides scoring surge and PP1 role into San Jose matchup

Matvei Gridin enters tonight’s road clash against the Sharks at SAP Center riding serious momentum. The 20-year-old winger has erupted for seven points over his last six games, including a recent three-point showcase that helped drive his fantasy roster rate up to 30 percent. Though slotted on Calgary’s third line alongside Ryan Strome at five-on-five, Gridin’s featured deployment on the top power-play unit gives him significant offensive upside. The Flames enter as slight road underdogs in a higher-scoring environment, testing Sharks netminder Yaroslav Askarov (confirmed).

Our models project Gridin for ~1 point and ~2–3 shots on goal tonight, with a small goal chance translating to about 2.6 fantasy points. Looking ahead at the broader schedule, Calgary has four games on the docket this week—leaving three after tonight—with our projections anticipating roughly 16.4 fantasy points across that stretch. With his blazing recent form and power-play usage, he is a compelling play in standard leagues. Today’s action: Stream.
