2/16 NHL Stack Report

1. Colorado Avalanche 1
Rantanen – MacKinnon – Landeskog (FanDuel: $28,700 (over 50% of the salary cap) | DraftKings: $23,000)
– Like with most slates, Colorado is coming into tonight’s slate with the highest implied goal total of the night at 3.5 and it would be even higher if they weren’t going up against the Golden Knights. FanDuel’s pricing has gotten so unusable that Colorado’s top line is completely unstackable on the site with the three linemates making up over 50% of your allotted salary. To get around this, I would recommend playing your favourite member of this line and pairing them with Cale Makar, it’s not much better but it’ll do. Luckily for DraftKings users, Colorado’s whole top line is very much in play. Considering the Golden Knights starter, Robin Lehner, is out with an upper body injury. It makes Colorado’s top line that much more appealing. All three play on the Aves top power play unit and are among the league leaders in scoring. (except for MacKinnon who spent some time out with an injury earlier in the season)
Ideal Defensive Partner(s): Cale Makar (FD: $7,300 | DK: $7,200)

2. Florida Panthers 3
Marchment – Lundell – Reinhart (FanDuel: $17,900 | DraftKings: $11,000)
– This line is a very sneaky value option, especially on DraftKings. Reinhart in particular has consistently been scoring despite being on the third line. Reinhart has still been seeing around 17-19 minutes of ice-time per game and over his last three games he has put together seven points! (4 goals, 3 assists) His linemates haven’t been too far off either with Marchment scoring 3 goals and 5 assists over his last three games and Lundell scoring 5 assists over his last two. Overall, this third line ends up seeing a considerable amount of ice time and has been scoring at a very high pace as of late, along with a 3.3 implied goal total.
Ideal Defensive Partner(s): Mackenzie Weegar (FD: $6,000 | DK: $4,800)

Honorable Mentions in order: MIN2 (Boldy-Gaudreau-Fiala), CAR1 (Teravainen-Aho-Necas), MIN1 (Zuccarello-Hartman-Kaprizov), CGY1 (Gaudreau-Lindhom-Tkachuk)

2/16 NHL Goalie Tracker

Best (Goalies to Roster)

1. Jacob Markstrom (FD: $8,100 | DK: $8,000)
2. Cam Talbot (FD: $8,400 | DK: $7,900)
   Honorable Mention(s): Frederik Andersen

Worst (Goalies to Target)

1. John Gibson (FD: $7,100 | DK: $7,300)
   

2/16 NHL Wild Card Targets

Jack Eichel (FD: $5,500 | DK: $6,800) 
– Jack Eichel is making his season debut as the newest member of the Vegas Golden Knights and although he has had a bit of a year thus far, this is still Jack Eichel. For FanDuel users, he is nearly a must play, I can guarantee, he will not be at $5,500 for much longer on FanDuel. We are talking about a bonafied NHL superstar who was wasting talent with the Sabres. Even on DK, he is very cheap for the player he is, along with the role he is playing on the Golden Knights. Depending on how the rest of your line shapes up you can pair Eichel with Max Pacioretty, Evgenii Dadonov or both (all dependent on how much salary you have available). I would strongly recommend considering Eichel for your lines tonight as you are getting a very important value piece which wont be around in future slates, take advantage of it while you can.
Honorable Mention(s): Tyler Toffoli, Evgenii Dadonov, Troy Terry

Core Four: (ALWAYS BE STACKIN’)

Centre – Jack Eichel

Winger – Matt Boldy

Defence – Tony DeAngelo

Goalie – Jacob Markstrom
