11/19 NHL – Main Slate

I am not a huge fan of most of the early games at all. If I were to use any line from any of those games, it would be Carolina Two with Sebastian Aho and Andrei Svechnikov. However, I would expect Robin Lehner to be in net and that 3.44 expected goal total to go down once that switch is updated across the industry.

Las Vegas One – William Karlsson, Reilly Smith, Max Pacioretty

The Las Vegas Golden Knights were absolute fire the other night, and it makes sense to go back to the well at home. It’s the same old story with the Toronto Maple Leafs, as they can both score and give up goals with the best of them. The second line is certainly in play as well as Cody Eakin provides value whereas Mark Stone and Jonathan Marchessault aren’t bad ways to spend your money. However, the top line gives us some balance in terms of price and skill. This line left points on the board during their commanding 6-0 victory over the Calgary Flames Sunday night. Despite William Karlsson scoring two goals and an assist and Max Pacioretty ending up with a goal and an assist, Reilly Smith hit the crossbar twice on potential full line goals. It’s safe to say there has been some instant chemistry for this newly formed line. Teams usually like what happens in Vegas, to stay in Vegas; particularly given just how dominant the Knights have been at home.

San Jose Two – Tomas Hertl, Timo Meier, Barclay Goodrow

The last time that I listed the two Sharks lines, it ended being the top line going off, buoyed by a big night from Kevin Labanc. However, this line’s night is coming and perhaps this is the moment. I would imagine that they won’t be seeing too much of Conor McDavid and the Edmonton top line. San Jose two is one of the hottest lines in the NHL right now so let’s just wide the wave. The Sharks are projected for 3.51 goals and I think the total on this game should rise throughout the day for both sides. It makes for a perfect game stack.

Edmonton One – Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, Zach Kassian

The cutoff above makes for the perfect segway into my final stack of the night. Projected for a mere 2.99 goals, Connor McDavid and friends present a contrarian version of the hammer as opposed to the more popular options listed above. The Sharks are no defensive wizards. In fact, that’s a bit of an understatement considering San Jose has allowed 73 goals this season, good for second-worst in the NHL. Clearly, the main two pieces are McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. I don’t have to tell you much about them. This is the type of spot they can troll hard and come up with another big game after hours.
