1/30 NHL Stack Report

1. Colorado Avalanche 1
   Nichushkin – Rantanen – Landeskog (FanDuel: $25,100 | DraftKings: $18,900)
   – Unsurprisingly, the Aves are the favourites of the slate. They are among the league’s top tier and are going up against a Sabres side who played last night and have notoriously had goalie troubles as of late. With MacKinnon sidelined with a concussion this line’s affordability makes them an almost must play. Landeskog has seen the lionshare of points as of late, however, Rantanen has seen more success throughout the season. All in all, we see a top team against one of the league’s bottom feeders with a 4.5 implied goal total (highest on the slate by far) along with some of the best offensive stats in the league for the home side (first in shooting percentage, first in goals). Not to mention, as a team, the Avalanche are on a nine game winning streak while Buffalo has three wins in their last 7 games. In cash games, prioritize Colorado’s top line, especially Nichushkin.
   Ideal Defensive Partner(s): Cale Makar (FD: $7,500 | DK: $7,500)
   
2. Dallas Stars 1
   Robertson – Hintz – Pavelski (FanDuel: $24,300 | DraftKings: $20,000)
   – Despite an off game against the Caps last time out (they had a goal called back for offside early in the game), Dallas’ top line are still one of the best in the league this season and they will definitely prove to be a handful for Linus Ullmark and the Bruins tonight. The Stars are coming into tonight’s game with a respectable 3.0 implied goal total and I suspect that it is negatively influenced based off their last game, which was not indicative of their overall performances as of late. When these guys score they score in bunches, Hintz alone has had four multipoint games over his last five games, consistently meeting his value. His linemates Pavelski and Robertson are both scoring at over a point per game pace as well this season. (Pavelski 48 points in 41 games, Robertson 39 points in 33 games). Dallas also has an excellent record of 14-5-1 at home which compliments their four wins over their last five games. This is definitely not an easy matchup for the Stars tonight, but the production out of Dallas’ top line has been excellent and I would look to them as a nice higher end stack in tonight’s slate.
   Ideal Defensive Partner(s): Miro Heiskanen (Ryan Suter works as a salary saver) (FD: $5,600 | DK: $4,800)
   
   Honorable Mention(s): MIN1 (Zuccarello-Hartman-Kaprizov), CBJ1 (Laine-Jenner-Nyquist), BOS2 (Pastrnak-Haula-Hall)

1/30 NHL Goalie Tracker

2. Jake Oettinger (FD: $7,700 | DK: $7,600)
   Honorable Mention(s): Joonas Korpisalo

Worst (Goalies to Target)

1. Cayden Primeau (FD: $6,700 | DK: $7,500)

1/30 NHL Wild Card Targets

Matthew Boldy (FD: $4,500 | DK: $3,000) 
– Boldy hit the ground running since making his NHL debut earlier this month. The rookie winger is now seeing time on Minnesota’s top power-play unit alongside offensive juggernauts like Kaprizov and Zuccarello. Boldy has already registered two multipoint games in his young career and has put together seven points in just eight games. Boldy is steadily seeing more playing time as well, averaging around 17 to 18 minutes a game. He’s coming into tonight red hot with three points and eight shots over his last two games. Considering how low his price is, it’s hard to not lock in Boldy tonight. He works as a one off but also stacks well with his linemates on the third line (Gaudreau-Fiala) as well as his power play linemates (Zuccarello-Kaprizov-Spurgeon).
Honorable Mention(s): Alexander Beauvilier-Noah Dobson, Alex Tuch, Tyler Toffoli
