Connor McMichael is a good fantasy start vs. Red Wings

The Washington Capitals have another BIG game tonight against the Detroit Red Wings. If you're playing fantasy you know the trade deadline means it's down to the wire. It's time to shop for Connor McMichael. Let's learn more about him including how to watch tonight's game.

While McMicheal didn't score any goals in last night's win over the Ottawa Senators, he did finish with two assists. He set up Aliaksei Protas and Max Pacioretty, players both young and old. And McMichael is a 2019 first rounder who has graduated to the NHL.

McMichael also finished with a plus one as well as a shot and won 40 percent of his face off draws. His time on ice was 17:37 which was second to Tom Wilson among forwards.

But don't just take our word for it. Here's some more verbiage on McMichael via Sean Allen of ESPN.com:

"With T.J. Oshie potentially sidelined for. awhile, the Caps juggled the lines. McMichael looks like he'll get some runway with a streaking (Alex) Ovechkin. The matchups with the Red Wings (tonight) and the Senators (yesterday's win) are favorable."
