Sunday 5/30 NHL Slate and DFS Gameplan

Welcome back to the Hot Shot!

There are only two games on today’s slate so I would focus on correlation as much as possible. We have no need to be scattered with so few options available.

Notable Goal Scoring Odds

Note: All odds are listed +300 or below. All odds are taken from DraftKings Sportsbook, as of the time of writing.

Main Slate – Games in Time Order

Tampa Bay Lightning (-108) at Carolina Hurricanes (-108) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total – Sebastian Aho (+143), Nikita Kucherov (+163), Brayden Point (+185), Steven Stamkos (+185), Alex Killorn (+195), Andrei Svechnikov, Vincent Trocheck (+205), Ondrej Palát (+205), Andrei Svechnikov (+215), Martin Necas (+225), Jordan Staal (+225), Teuvo Teräväinen (+240), Nino Niederreiter (+250), Anthony Cirelli (+270), Yanni Gourde (+270), Brock McGinn (+300)

Carolina was able to grab an overtime winner against Nashville in their prior series, sparing them from a game seven. They will play host game one of this series to the defending champion Lightning.

Las Vegas Golden Knights (+160) at Colorado Avalanche (-186) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total – Nathan MacKinnon (+105), Mikko Rantanen (+123), Gabriel Landeskog (+180), Max Pacioretty (+195), Joonas Donskoi (+210), Mark Stone (+210), Andre Burakovsky (+255), Brandon Saad (+270), Jonathan Marchessault (+275), Alex Tuch (+275), JT Compher (+290), William Karlsson (+290)

The Golden Knights exploded for a 6-2 win Friday night to take the seventh game of their first-round series against the Wild. However, now things certainly don’t get any easier as they head on the road to face a powerhouse in Colorado.
