Before Flip dives into his top fantasy hockey players already exceeding early expectations so far this NHL season, he takes a quick look around the NHL at the top injury news you need to make sure your fantasy squad is in top shape to start the new year. News that includes updates to top fantasy assets for the Tampa Bay Lightning that include the return of Steven Stamkos and the latest on goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy.

He also provides the latest on Nashville Predators bruiser Luke Schenn and newly-added Winnipeg Jets forward Gabe Vilardi. Flip then takes a look at some of the best performers to start the season in terms of players and fantasy stars that are already exceeding expectations.

Some of those names include Detroit Red Wings forward Alex DeBrincat, No. 1 goaltender for the Vegas Golden Knights in Adin Hill and even the rugged pivot for the Minnesota Wild in Joel Eriksson Ek - all of whom are off to excellent starts and have exceeded early fantasy hockey expectations.
