NHL DFS: The Point Shot Cheatsheet – Wednesday, February 23, 2022

Key Skaters

C Anze Kopitar (LAK)

  • Kopitar and the Kings match up with the Arizona Coyotes, one of the worst defensive teams in the NHL and the Kings’ captain comes in with five points (all assists) in his last two games, one of which was against these same Coyotes. Kopitar is underpriced considering the matchup as the ninth-highest-priced center on the slate.

C Nazem Kadri (COL)

  • As the second-line center for the Avalanche, Kadri is having a first-line center-worthy season with 64 points in 48 games. Colorado matches up with a Detroit team that is weak against opposing centers. Kadri is underpriced for his production at $6,700 and he should be in the mid-7K range.
