10/26 NHL – Main Slate
Top Three Lines
Boston One – David Pastrnak, Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron– It’s a Stanley Cup Final rematch and I’d expect a little revenge for the Bruins. Pasta can’t miss right now and along with Brad Marchand, they are the two priorities. Although I do like the full line as they get the lion’s share of the B’s production. They might go a little under owned “wishful thinking?” given the matchup with the Blues and Jordan Binnington, but I’d make sure to at least grab a little exposure.
Colorado One – Nathan MacKinnon, Gabriel Landeskog, J.T. Compher – Mikko Rantanen’s injury takes some of the sting out of the top line but also helps to make it more affordable. The Ducks have allowed at least two goals in their last six games. In the alternative, I don’t mind John Gibson if you want to hedge this game as he should face considerable volume in terms of shots on the road in the Pepsi Center.
Toronto One – Auston Matthews, William Nylander, Andreas Johnsson – It’s Hockey Night in Canada! This line is underpriced on DraftKings and should be the chalk there. With William Nylander finally picking up some traction with points in his last three games, this line has both floor and upside and is my favorite if using a full line in cash.
