By Jan Levine, RotoWireSpecial to Yahoo SportsIn this space, we'll look at which NHL players are seeing their fantasy hockey values rise or fall on a week-to-week basis. First, during the two months from Opening Night on October 13, Laughton posted just four goals and six assists in 26 games. With 12 goals and 16 assists, Laughton sits one tally, four helpers and four points short of matching his career highs in each category. Brock Boeser, RW, VANBoeser, who signed a three-year, $19.95 million contract to remain with the Canucks last July, appears to have finally gotten into a groove. He rewarded the team with 51 points in 78 games a season ago, including 19 points with the man advantage.

BOSTON — (AP) — Alex Tuch scored his second goal of the game in overtime, and the Buffalo Sabres rallied for a 4-3 victory over the NHL-best Boston Bruins on Saturday for their sixth straight win. Tage Thompson scored his team-leading 27th goal and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen stopped 37 shots for the Sabres, who won for just the second time in their last 11 games against the Bruins. Boston’s Brad Marchand had scored the go-ahead goal on a clean breakaway after setting up Patrice Bergeron’s tying score just over five minutes into the third period. David Pastrnak added his 25th goal and Swayman made 21 saves for the Bruins, who remained unbeaten in regulation at home at 18-0-3. Tuch skated in on a breakaway and slipped a wrister inside the left post to put the Sabres ahead 2-1 early in the second period.

By Jason Chen, RotoWireSpecial to Yahoo SportsIt's been a chaotic October in fantasy hockey. Don't let the fact that he plays on the Coyotes discount his fantasy value, as Keller can be a very good source of points as the team's best player. If the points aren't flowing, Reinhart's fantasy value is very limited. Demko has been one of the most disappointing goaltenders in fantasy, losing all six of his starts and allowing 24 goals. Demko's fantasy value has never been lower, but all managers are aware that his play should improve, and that would be the biggest selling point.

Jack Eichel will make his debut with the Vegas Golden Knights on Wednesday.

Charlie Coyle scored on a wrist shot from the slot 34 seconds into overtime and Boston completed a 4-3 comeback victory over the Buffalo Sabres in the Bruins’ first game in 16 days.
