NHL:
With Gavrikov in the mix, should fantasy managers target Rangers’ top four defenders, and how might that shift 5v5 stats?
Qwiket AI:
Gavrikov’s presence likely tightens NYR’s own zone and reduces high-danger chances, benefiting Fox and Schneider. Expect a lift in blocks and hits from the blueline, with Fox’s Norris-level ceiling returning if the defense stabilizes. This makes pairing Fox with Gavrikov a solid fantasy strategy for the season.
