What It Means:

Hammond will be making his season debut after Craig Anderson manned the pipes in Ottawa's first two games. In two career starts versus Detroit, Hammond has recorded a 0.78 goals against average and .966 save percentage, winning both contests.

The Red Wings rank 20th in numberFire's NHL Team Power Rankings, and at an affordable $7600 price tag on FanDuel, Hammond could make for a sneaky value play on an eight-man Monday slate. Our models project him to make 27.90 saves on 30.53 shot attempts, although we give Hammond only a 40.0 percent chance of picking up the victory.
