Let’s get right into it!
2/27 NHL Stack Report
1. San Jose Sharks 1
Meier – Hertl – Barabanov (FanDuel: $20,700 | DraftKings: $15,800)
– Tonight’s late hammer is carrying a lot of value in their top line as aside from Meier who is priced extremely high, San Jose’s top line has been impressive, compared to the rest of the lineup who have been severely lacking (with one exception). Seattle has been on quite the downward spiral as of late too. They have dropped their last six game and in many of these games they gave up around 5-6 goals. San Jose’s main draw tonight is definitely their matchup. Seattle has not been good on either end of the puck ranking 27th in the league in both goals scored and goals allowed while having one of the worst shots on goal average in the entire league at 28.1. San Jose is coming into the second half of a back but if it weren’t for that, I can’t imagine the bookies having this one as close as they do. San Jose is still slightly favoured but given the weak play of their opponents lately, coupled with the point production of their top unit, the San Jose Sharks are a good place to start your GPP builds on both sites.
Ideal Defensive Partner(s): Brent Burns (FD: $6,600 | DK: $6,000)
2. New York Islanders 1
Palmieri – Barzal – Parise (FanDuel: $15,000 | DraftKings: $11,700)
– This line is way too cheap, especially on DraftKings where two of the top liners are in the $3,000 range, that’s simply unbelievable, especially against a team in the Ducks who notoriously struggle on the defensive end of the ice. The Islanders are not the most offensively gifted team but Anaheim does give up a lot of good looks and allows shots on goal at an unacceptable rate. On average, Anaheim allows over 33 shots on goal against per game, while nearly giving up three goals a game. With the way they’ve been playing right now, it’s the Islanders top line who are going to benefit from Anaheim’s defensive lapses. The great thing about this line is the versatility, they work as a full line stack, a two-man and they can be easily paired with a defenseman. On top of that, the price of these guys will really help alleviate some of the heavy price tags on the higher priced lines, such as Pittsburgh’s top line.
Ideal Defensive Partner(s): Noah Dobson (FD: $6,200 | DK: $5,800)
Honorable Mention(s): WPG1 (Stastny-Scheifele-Wheeler), DAL1 (Robertson-Hintz-Pavelski), STL1 (Saad-O’Reilly-Perron), PIT1 (Rust-Crosby-Guentzel) (MAIN CASH LINE PIT1)
2/27 NHL Goalie Tracker
Best (Goalies to Roster)
- Ilya Sorokin (FD: $7,600 | DK: $7,700)

Worst (Goalies to Target)
- Philipp Grubauer (FD: $7,100 | DK: $7,500)
Honorable Mention(s): Elvis Merzlikins
2/27 NHL Wild Card Targets
Logan Couture (FD: $6,600 | DK: $5,100)
– With 5 points out of his last five games (4 goals, 1 assist), Couture has been the only major contributor on the Sharks who isn’t on the top line. Couture has been consistently effective as of late and has regularly seen time on San Jose’s top power play unit. Despite a slight price increase on FanDuel, he is still fairly priced on DraftKings and all the same points we made about Seattle’s defensive weakness’ still apply to having some shares of Couture tonight. He can work as a one off but I prefer him in a mini-stack with defenseman Brent Burns.
Honorable Mention(s): Brady Skjei, Zach Hyman, Martin Necas, Tage Thompson, Bryan Rust
Core Four: (ALWAYS BE STACKIN’)
Center – Matt Barzal
Winger – Timo Meier
Defenseman – Noah Dobson
