There are always a few potential gems to find in any rankings if you take a closer look. This week, take a moment to check on the availability of a couple of players that haven't laced them up in the regular season yet. Valeri Nichushkin is available in about two-thirds of ESPN Fantasy leagues and is expected back for the Colorado Avalanche next week; while Patrik Laine, who is available in 70% of leagues, just missed this week's ranking, but his projected return near the start of December edges ever closer. These rankings are based on expectations of fantasy points produced from Friday, Nov. 8, until the end of the season. Fantasy points are based on the ESPN.com standard game (for skaters: goals = 2 points, assists = 1 point, shots and hits = 0.1 points, blocked shots and special-teams points = 0.5 points; for goaltenders: wins = 4 points, OT losses = 1 point, shutouts = 3 points, saves = 0.2 points, goals against = -2 points).
