NHL Fantasy Hockey Waiver Wire Pickups: Defensemen, April 5: Broberg Thriving with Additional Responsibility for the Blues

On every game day this season, THN Fantasy will highlight players and goalies for fantasy hockey managers to stream, roster or utilize in standard leagues and/or DFS games. Players and goalies highlighted for streaming in standard leagues are rostered in less than 50 percent of Yahoo leagues. K'Andre Miller, CAR @ OTT (23% rostered) - FanDuel $4,900 Miller notched a pair of assists Saturday in Carolina's 4-3 win over the Islanders.

The victory kept Carolina in first place of the Eastern Conference, two points ahead of Tampa Bay. Miller has a solid - not spectacular - first season with the Hurricanes, posting six goals and 29 helpers in 68 contests, the second highest point total of his career. He signed an eight-year, $60 million contract with the Rangers and was traded to the Hurricanes last July to fill a key role on the team's defense in the short- and long-term.

Adam Fox, NYR vs. WSH (95% rostered) - FanDuel $6,000 Injuries have limited Fox to just 50 games this season. Despite that reduced number of contests, he is still having an impressive season.

Fox ended his point streak to six games, during which he has produced 10 points. That span includes eight assists, five of which have come on the power play. Fox has seven goals, 40 assists, 20 power-play points and 82 shots on the season.
