NHL DFS – The Slapshot
Nice 8 game Friday night slate. Friday’s for NHL have been a disaster this season, but I think we can right that ship tonight.
What else are you gonna do? Watch Ivy League Basketball… Actually, don’t answer that.
PANTHERS
Barkov – Reinhart – Montour
This is the Kings 4th game on a 6 game road trip and they’re down in South Beach where they have been since Wednesday and have to leave tomorrow? Yeah, they’ll give up two goals in the first period to a much overdue Panthers stack which has started to come of life lately.
Jackets vs Canucks
Ugh. Two crappy teams face off and probably give up lots of SOG to each other. Expect heavy ownership on this game but I really don’t love the way either team is playing offensively at the moment. Good one off spot.
HURRICANES
Kotkaniemi – Necas – Svechnikov
Very curious how these boys can screw things up tonight.
CENTERS
Play 3 centers tonight, no doubt about it.
- Aleksander Barkov
- Jack Eichel … Friday night Jack and in New York. He could go hatty on his own tonight.
- Elias Pettersson
- Tyler Seguin
- Boone Jenner … Should pair with Laine and Gaudreau
- Brock Nelson
- Anze Kopitar
WINGS
- Sam Reinhart
- Mitchell Marner
- Andrei Svechnikov
- Patrik Laine / Johnny Gaudreau
DEFENSE
- Quinn Hughes
- Samuel Bolduc … Rookie for Isles getting PP1 time at min price.
- Dougie Hamilton
- Drew Doughty
- Brandon Montour
VALUE
- Jimmy Vesey … Assuming he is on the top line this is an automatic plug and play option. The Knights are 32nd over the last month vs LW in goals allowed and 28th overall in fantasy points.
Dan Vladar (Flames) … Calgary was horrible at home vs the Blackhawks last night and have a B2B tonight in Seattle, we should see Darth Vladar in net and his cheap price helps justify using him here.
Matt Murray (Maple Leafs) … Toss up between Murray at $8400 and Andersen at $8500 for your pay up – get me the win goalie. Murray should see more SOG
