NHL DFS – The Slapshot
This is mostly just a gut feeling on tonight but it’s a slate where instead of me doing my usual C-W-D build I am looking at a full even strength line stack. I believe we’ll have some full strength lines that pay off more than PP units or spreading it out to defenseman as well… Just my $0.02.
PANTHERS
Barkov – Tkachuk – Verhaeghe
Panthers at home vs the Coyotes. What could go wrong right? Barkov is cheap given the matchup.
MAPLE LEAFS
Matthews – Nylander – Bunting
The Blues are depleted, and dealing with plenty of trade rumors too. They should get worked by Toronto. You need 3 goals here for the line to pay off though.
PREDATORS
Parissinen – Forsberg – Sissons
Forsberg is on fire, and it’s Tuesday. The Preds are getting the Habs who have been god awful of late. This game presents a scenario where Nashville should get a ton of good scoring chances.
ISLES vs CANUCKS
NYI: Nelson – Beauvillier – Lee
VAN: Horvat – Boeser – Hughes
My favorite game stack tonight is out west. Nice pace on this game and good spots for Nelson and Horvat.

MY PICK …
Jacob Markstrom – Flames
The Flames are playing a little better and on a night where you can either go safe or cheap I like Markstrom’s mid range price here. I think he slips under the radar on the road and gets the win.
OTHERS:
- Spencer Knight – Panthers
- Anton Forsberg – Senators … Probably a little chalky and a little scary for me.
CONTRARIAN VALUES:
- Sam Montembeault – Canadiens
- Joonas Korpisalo – Blue Jackets
LINE LOCK(S) OF THE NIGHT:
Nelson – Beauvillier – Lee (Islanders)
FAVORITE ONE OFF STUD FORWARDS:
FIlip Forsberg (Predators)
FAVORITE ONE OFF VALUE:
Alex Killorn (Lightning)
FAVORITE ONE OFF DEFENSEMAN:
Aaron Ekblad (Panthers)
BETS:
Isles/Canucks OVER 6
