Welcome to the NHL DFS Man Advantage for a Monday night and we have a 5 game playoff NHL slate to break down!
Things are being done a little differently for the playoffs. The NHL crew got together and broke down tonight’s slate in video form. You can watch “What The Puck?” with me, Allan, and Keith. We break down the slate from a DFS perspective and go over the best bets for Monday’s big slate.
NHL DFS Breakdown:
New York Islanders @ Pittsburgh Penguins
This is one of the games I want to stack up on Monday. My favorite line in this game is the Penguins’ third line. I also really like the Islanders’ top line, but I would play Beauvillier with Barzal and Eberle for a power-play stack. Pittsburgh has been taking some penalties in the last couple of games, and also Komarov is useless in fantasy.
Toronto Maple Leafs @ Montreal Canadiens
With Tavares still out due to his concussion, Toronto had to switch up their second line. I think they will be a low-owned play and a way to get exposure to Leafs without having to pay up for Matthews and Marner. As for Montreal, their second line is where I want to look. If you are playing SE or cash then I would use Jack Campbell as a pivot off Fleury. Both teams have some value on D in Edmundson (MTL) and Holl (TOR) which interest me tonight as well.
Tampa Bay Lightning @ Florida Panthers
This is another stack-up game, but it will also be popular. Both of these teams’ top lines will be pay up spots but I would rather play both team’s secondary scoring. Alex Killorn is one of the best plays in this game. In this series, Killorn has 3 goals and 4 assists and makes for a good cheap one-off as well. David Savard and Radko Gudas are two of my favorite cheap d men. Both get the fringe points and give you some much-needed salary relief on this slate
Edmonton Oilers @ Winnipeg Jets
This is probably our least favorite game on the slate. I do like Hellebuyck in net for the Jets on Monday, but other than that there isn’t much to like. Who am I kidding, you gotta love both McDavid and Draisaitl in this one. This is a must-win game for the Oilers and you better believe these two will show up. I am not stacking here though, this is a one-off type of game for me.
Minnesota Wild @ Vegas Golden Knights
Fleury is the top goalie on the slate for us and it’s not close. I do think he is ok to fade in GPP’s, especially in large-field tournaments. Outside of Kaprizov and maybe Fiala, we don’t want much from the Wild side of the game. Vegas’ second line is the top play in this game, but I don’t mind the top line being a contrarian play. Of course, both Pietrangelo and Theodore are in play for Vegas as well if you are paying up on D.
