NHL NHL DFS Hot Shot for DraftKings and FanDuel (Dec. 30) Richard Masana 2 years ago written by Richard Masana This article focuses on 12/30 NHL Picks for both DraftKings Sportsbook and DraftKings Daily Fantasy. We analyze tournament tactics, statistics, pricing, and attempt to tackle this highly variable Daily Fantasy format so that we can gain an edge on the field at large. Full rankings for each position for both sites are available below. Thursday 12/30 NHL Slate and DFS Gameplan Welcome back to the Hot Shot for a seven-game Thursday slate! Full Game Odds/Totals and DraftKings Rankings can be found below as well as cash game considerations for each site. Three Favorite Lines Carolina One “Sebastian Aho/Teuvo Tervainen/Nino Niederreiter Two Man” There is no recent data for this line as Carolina had been wrecked by covid prior to the stoppage and Aho was one of the missing players. However, the Hurricanes played fairly well through absences and return fairly healthy with the sweetest matchup of the night, hosting a severely undermanned Montreal team. We are also getting a gift price on Aho at $6,600 and Nino Niederreiter is super cheap, which is why I listed the full line despite Niederreiter not joining the other two skates on Carolina’s top power-play unit. Florida One “Aleksandr Barkov/Anthony Duclair/Carter Verhaeghe” Much like Carolina listed above, Florida had been dealing with a huge wave of covid cases prior to the short holiday/covid induced stoppage. However, they are healthy now and this line seems way too cheap. The Panthers will be on a back-to-back, but they should have no problem getting a few goals past third-string, awful career minor league goalie Maxime Legace. At $3,600, Verhaeghe provides us some savings/value, so once again the full line is in play. Calgary One “Elias Lindholm, Johnny Gaudreau, Matthew Tkachuk” As a later game, this might be a sneaky spot for a high-quality line such as Calgary One. They are fairly priced on DraftKings and get a Seattle team that has poor defensive metrics and has been giving up a lot of goals recently, on a back to back. Over their last ten games, they are leading every other line in the NHL in terms of shot attempts for “incl. sog, missed shots, blocks shots) by a full 51 with the second most line-oriented goals in that span with nine. For tournaments, they make a perfect pairing with one of the above lines, a mix of chalk and contrarian. 12/30 NHL Game Odds and Totals Main Slate of Games – Beginning 7 p.m. ET Nashville Predators (-125) at Columbus Blue Jackets (+105) – 6 Projected Goal Total Tampa Bay Lightning (+115) at Florida Panthers (-135) – 6 Projected Goal Total Montreal Canadiens (+250) at Carolina Hurricanes (-320) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Buffalo Sabres (+165) at New York Islanders (-200) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Calgary Flames (-140) at Seattle Kraken (+120) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Vancouver Canucks (-115) at Los Angeles Kings (-135) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Philadelphia Flyers (+115) at San Jose Sharks (-135) – 6 Projected Goal Total 12/30 NHL DraftKings Individual Rankings Centers Sebastian Aho – Carolina – $7,300 Aleksandr Barkov – Florida – $6,700 Brayden Point – Tampa Bay – 7,900 Elias Lindholm – Calgary – $6,200 Elias Pettersson – Vancouver – $3,900 Wingers Filip Forsberg – Nashville – $7,100 Johnny Gaudreau – Calgary – $6,700 Andrei Svechnikov – Carolina – $6,600 Nino Niederreiter – Carolina – $4,500 Carter Verhaeghe – Florida – $3,600 Defense Alexandre Carrier – Nashville – $3,000 Mattias Ekholm – Nashville – $3,500 Erik Karlsson – San Jose – $6,600 Rasmus Dahlin – Sabres – $4,100 Brent Burns – San Jose – $6,400 Goalies Frederick Andersen/Antti Raanta – Carolina – $8,300 Ilya Sorokin – New York Islanders – $7,800 Jacob Markstrom – Calgary – $8,200 Cash Considerations Sebastian Aho, Aleksandr Barkov, Alexandre Carrier, Frederick Andersen/Antti Raanta Make sure to hop in our Expert Discord Chat for FREE!

NHL NHL DFS Friday Night Forecheck for DraftKings and FanDuel (Dec. 17) allenjesse24@yahoo.com 2 years ago written by allenjesse24@yahoo.com Friday 12/17 NHL Breakdown Welcome back to Win Daily Sports’ Friday Night Forecheck! We have a nice 6 game slate tonight. There is a ton of news to keep up on throughout the day, as COVID has started to cause issues throughout the league. With that being said, please make sure to keep up with Twitter and in our Discord all day long for the latest news and updates. Let’s get into it! Good luck! Goalies Tristan Jarry – Pittsburgh Penguins: A home date against the Buffalo Sabres tonight puts Jarry in a very, very nice matchup. He should have a nice night and should be considered safe. Anthony Stolarz – Anaheim Ducks: The Ducks are in the same position as the Penguins tonight, with a home matchup against a weak opponent in the Coyotes. Stolarz has been playing very well, and this should not be too much of a test for him. Marc-Andre Fleury – Chicago Blackhawks: Flower has really been playing well over the last few weeks. He and the Hawks are at home tonight against basically an AHL roster for the Predators, as Nashville deals with injuries and COVID. This spot for MAF is real nice, and he may be ignored with the other two heavy favorites on the board. Bonus GPP Goalie Pick – Alexandar Georgiev – New York Rangers: The Rangers are slumping right now, and Vegas is hot, so this is a matchup that we are looking to catch Vegas tired a little bit. The Golden Knights played last night in Jersey, so they are on the second half of a traveling back to back. Georgiev is the only thing that has really been keeping the Rangers in games recently, so this could be a nice sneaky spot for a high upside upset. There is a good bit of risk involved in this, but the Rangers are due for positive regression at some point, and we want to catch them when that happens, not after. Lines to Build Around These lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable). Anaheim Ducks Power Play – Ryan Getzlaf/Trevor Zegras/Sonny Milano/Rickard Rakell/Jamie Drysdale: The Ducks host the lowly Arizona Coyotes tonight in what should be a very nice spot for both of the top lines. The second line is a little bit nicer looking than the first, but this unit gets you access to both of the top lines in very good spots. Pittsburgh Penguins 2 – Jeff Carter/Jason Zucker/Danton Heinen: The truth is, Pittsburgh is in the best spot on the night, up and down the roster. They get to face Malcolm Subban in net for the Sabres tonight, and he is not a very good goalie. On home ice, the Pens have been matching the Crosby line to the depth lines and using this second line for a top line matchup (loosely). Because of that, this second line is favored a little more than the top. The Crosby line and the top power play unit are all squarely in play here. Chicago Blackhawks Power Play – Jonathan Toews/Alex Debrincat/Patrick Kane/Brandon Hagel/Seth Jones: As mentioned above, because of the issues the Preds are facing with injury and COVID, they are rolling out an AHL/preseason type lineup tonight. That puts this unit in a good spot. The Preds are normally a decent penalty killing team, but without key pieces, they will be more vulnerable tonight, and will potentially take a few more penalties than normal. High Risk Lines These are plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable). St. Louis Blues 2 – Ivan Barbashev/Vladimir Tarasenko/Pavel Buchnevich/Torey Krug: The Blues host the Stars tonight in a game that should be winnable for them. However, this game feels like it could be a 2-1 defensive battle with both teams canceling each other out, which is why this line is considered high risk. Vegas Golden Knights 1 – Chandler Stephenson/Max Pacioretty/Mark Stone/Shea Theodore: The Knights have been rolling, and they come into New York tonight to face a struggling Rangers team that is now without Artemi Panarin tonight (he did not skate in the morning skate). We are going to play the hot hand tonight, and since the depth scored last night, it’s this line’s turn to do the damage. They are high risk simply because they are on the back end of a traveling back-to-back. Also, make sure you aren’t playing this line in any lineups where you are playing Georgiev. Winnipeg Jets 2 – Pierre-Luc Dubois/Kyle Connor/Evgeny Svechnikov/Neal Pionk: This second line for the Jets looks to be lining up against the top line for the Caps tonight in a plus matchup. Something to keep in mind, though, the coach for the Jets just resigned this morning, so there may be some changes in the lines and pairings for tonight. Contrarily, the Capitals are in a good spot too, as this game could be high scoring. On the Capitals side, Alex Ovechkin and his top line are always in play, but tonight, the second line looks a little better and could be sneakier (Nicklas Backstrom/Conor Sheary/T.J. Oshie). Honorable mentions: BUF1, STLPP, VGK2, WSH2, PIT1, NYRPP Value Options – DraftKings Center: Dylan Strome ($3400) – Chicago Blackhawks Wing: Kaapo Kakko ($3100) – New York Rangers Defense: Brian Dumoulin ($3000) – Pittsburgh Penguins Value Options – FanDuel Center: Ryan Getzlaf ($5400) – Anaheim Ducks Wing: Jason Zucker ($4300) – Pittsburgh Penguins Defense: Brian Dumoulin ($3800) – Pittsburgh Penguins Cash Considerations – DraftKings Sidney Crosby – C – Pittsburgh Penguins Kyle Connor – W – Winnipeg Jets Seth Jones – D – Chicago Blackhawks Anthony Stolarz – G – Anaheim Ducks Cash Considerations – FanDuel Sidney Crosby – C – Pittsburgh Penguins Kyle Connor – W – Winnipeg Jets Seth Jones – D – Chicago Blackhawks Anthony Stolarz – G – Anaheim Ducks Make sure to hop in our Expert Discord Chat for FREE!

NHL NHL DFS Hot Shot for DraftKings and FanDuel (Dec. 16) Richard Masana 2 years ago written by Richard Masana This article focuses on 12/16 NHL Picks for both DraftKings Sportsbook and DraftKings Daily Fantasy. We analyze tournament tactics, statistics, pricing, and attempt to tackle this highly variable Daily Fantasy format so that we can gain an edge on the field at large. Full rankings for each position for both sites are available below. Thursday 12/16 NHL Slate and DFS Gameplan Welcome back to the Hot Shot for a ten-game Thursday slate! With these larger slates, I highly advise passing on full three-man lines but instead going with pairs of two-man stacks as the goal is to attempt to capture the top scorers on the night across multiple games. Full Game Odds/Totals and DraftKings Rankings can be found below as well as cash game considerations for each site. Three Favorite Lines Tampa Bay One “Steven Stamkos/Ondrej Palat Two Man” Tampa Bay comes in a slate high -250 favorite against the hapless Ottawa Senators. As a result, it makes sense to start our builds off with a two-man that features the core pair of top-line skaters for this team at the moment. Stamkos and Palat also share a correlation on the top power-play unit. Vegas One “Max Pacioretty, Mark Stone and Chandler Stephenson” This line has been very hot and Mark Stone is dramatically underpriced at only $5,500. Over the last ten games, they are crushing every other line out there with an NHL-high twelve full-line goals during that span. For a team from out west visiting the east coast, they are strong favorites at -165 and should add to their recent production tonight. Los Angeles Two “Victor Arvidsson, Phillip Danault, Alex Iafallo” This one is a bit off the board, but their 108 SATF over their last ten games puts them fourth in the NHL during that span. They are sizable underdogs in Florida, but as the six total suggests, goals are expected all around here. As far as the Kings’ side of the equation, it is only reasonable to expect the production to come from the second unit. 12/16 NHL Game Odds and Totals Main Slate of Games – Beginning 7 p.m. ET Ottawa Senators (+200) at Tampa Bay Lightning (-250) – 6 Projected Goal Total Los Angeles Kings (+175) at Florida Panthers (-205) – 6 Projected Goal Total Philadelphia Flyers (-135) at Montreal Canadiens (+120) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Carolina Hurricanes (-105) at Detroit Red Wings (-115) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Vegas Golden Knights (-165) at New Jersey Devils (+145) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Boston Bruins (-105) at New York Islanders (-115) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Colorado Avalanche (-105) at Nashville Predators (-115) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Buffalo Sabres (+250) at Minnesota Wild (-320) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Columbus Blue Jackets (+165) at Edmonton Oilers (-195) – 6 Projected Goal Total Vancouver Canucks (+110) at San Jose Sharks (-130) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total 12/16 NHL DraftKings Individual Rankings Centers Steven Stamkos – Tampa Bay – $7,400 Nathan MacKinnon – Colorado – $9,500 Tim Stuetzle – Ottawa – $3,000 Elias Pettersson- Vancouver – $4,000 Leon Draisaitl – Edmonton – $8,900 Wingers Max Pacioretty – Vegas – $8,800 Mark Stone – Vegas – $5,500 Jonathan Huberdeau – Florida – $7,600 Ondrej Palat – Tampa Bay – $4,600 Victor Arvidsson – Los Angeles – $5,200 Defense Erik Karlsson – Sharks – $6,200 Victor Hedman – Tampa Bay – $7,400 P.K. Subban – New Jersey – $3,400 Rasmus Ristolainen – Philadelphia – $3,200 Alex Pietrangelo – Vegas – $6,600 Goalies Anton Khudobin – Dallas – $8,300 Cash Considerations Mark Stone, Tim Stuetzle, the cheap defenders ranked above, Steven Stamkos Make sure to hop in our Expert Discord Chat for FREE!

NHL NHL DFS Friday Night Forecheck for DraftKings and FanDuel (Dec. 10) allenjesse24@yahoo.com 2 years ago written by allenjesse24@yahoo.com This article will focus on NHL Daily Fantasy picks for both FanDuel and DraftKings. Using advanced hockey metrics, slate analysis, and line by line evaluation, this article will point you towards what we think are the best plays for the night! Good luck! Friday 12/10 NHL Breakdown Welcome back to Win Daily Sports’ Friday Night Forecheck. We have a bit of a larger slate to break down tonight, with 7 games on the slate. There is an awful lot to like about this slate, so you will want to spread out your exposure to some big pieces tonight. Good luck! Goalies Darcy Kuemper – Colorado Avalanche: The Avalanche are the biggest home favorites on the board tonight, in what should be a rough game for the opposing Red Wings. Kuemper has finally turned it around slightly and hasn’t been as bad as he was earlier in the season. The trends are saying play him tonight at home against the Wings. The shot upside won’t be terrible, but it’s not the best, either, so this ends up being a cash play that probably isn’t great for GPP. Thatcher Demko – Vancouver Canucks: The Canucks have a nice matchup tonight at home against the Winnipeg Jets, who have been having trouble scoring on the road, scoring just 2 goals per game over their last five roadies. Demko has really stepped it up over the last couple of weeks, and this is a fantastic spot for him. Igor Shesterkin – New York Rangers: Igor joined the Rangers’ morning skate this morning, indicating that it is possible he can come back tonight for a road tilt against the Sabres. CHECK THE NEWS throughout the day, and if he does play, he becomes a top option tonight. Please note, only play the Rangers goalie tonight if it is Igor – you do NOT want Georgiev. If Georgiev gets the start, you can consider Mackenzie Blackwood in this spot instead. Bonus GPP Goalie Pick – Tristan Jarry – Pittsburgh Penguins: Jarry has just been playing way too well to ignore him. As long as he gets the start tonight against the Caps, he is a great play, as the Pens have been limiting scoring on the road, thanks to Jarry. Lines to Build Around These lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable). Florida Panthers Power Play – Aleksander Barkov/Sam Reinhart/Sam Bennett/Jonathan Huberdeau/Aaron Ekblad: The Panthers roll into Arizona where they should absolutely destroy the Coyotes tonight. The Coyotes are a mess of an organization right now, and truthfully, there is opportunity up and down the lineup tonight for massive upside for the Panthers. This top power play unit gives you access to the top two scoring lines, and should be heavily considered for cash. The second line has a slight edge in the matchups tonight, but you can’t deny the top line here either. Colorado Avalanche Power Play – Nathan MacKinnon/Nazem Kadri/Gabriel Landeskog/Mikko Rantanen/Cale Makar: Speaking of a team with massive opportunity tonight, the Avalanche play host to the Detroit Red Wings tonight and Thomas Greiss in net. The Red Wings on the road have given up 3.8 goals against per game over their last five road games, and the Avalanche have scored a whopping 6.2 goals per game over their last five home games. Get exposure to the top line tonight. Logan O’Connor, should he remain on the top line, becomes a fantastic value play. Vancouver Canucks 1 – Bo Horvat/Jason Dickinson/Nils Hoglander/Tyler Myers: The Canucks, as mentioned earlier, face the Jets at home tonight, and on home ice against the Bruins, this top line hard matched the Pastrnak/Bergeron/Marchand line. We can expect them to do the same tonight, creating a very, very, very juicy matchup against the Jets’ top line. On top of that, Eric Comrie is expected to be in net for the Jets, and he has not played in a while. His numbers aren’t amazing, so this line definitely has a good chance to be very sneaky tonight. The Jets top line rates: 38.33 shots against/60, 3.36 goals against/60, 3.97 expected goals against/60, 32.95 scoring chances against/60, and 18.16 high danger chances against/60. These are inflated numbers, and the Canucks top line (without Dickinson) is generating: 40.27 shots for/60, 0.92 goals for/60, 2.92 expected goals for/60, 38.9 scoring chances for/60, and 13.73 high danger chances for/60. High Risk Lines These are plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable). Vegas Golden Knights 1 – Chandler Stephenson/Max Pacioretty/Mark Stone/Shea Theodore: The Golden Knights host the Flyers tonight, in what should be a lopsided contest. The Flyers are a team who came out of the gate looking good, but have severely plummeted into being a very bad team. They are sporting some of the worst defensive rates in the league, and the Golden Knights should have their way against them. This top line is in a very good spot tonight, in a top six matchup that provides plenty of opportunity. Pittsburgh Penguins 1 – Sidney Crosby/Evan Rodrigues/Kasperi Kapanen/Kris Letang: The Pens and Caps is always a premier matchup, pitting Crosby vs Ovechkin, and a lot of eyes will be on this matchup tonight. Ovechkin is having a better season than Crosby, of course, as he chases history. However, the top line for the Pens is in a good spot tonight. They run risky without Jake Guentzel, but that just means you can have this line at a discount. New York Rangers 1 – Mika Zibanejad/Chris Kreider/Kaapo Kakko/Adam Fox: The top line for the Rangers is in a really good spot tonight against Buffalo. The Rangers seem like they have been a little quiet recently, and they seem due for a multi-point, slate breaking game. This is the spot where that could happen. Always consider playing Zibanejad/Panarin/Fox as a three-man in the Rangers look as well. Honorable mentions: VGK2, NSH1, NJDPP1, WSHPP, WPG1, PIT2, NYR3, BUF1 (if Georgiev starts) Value Options – DraftKings Center: Bo Horvat ($4500) – Vancouver Canucks Wing: Kasperi Kapanen ($3100) – Pittsburgh Penguins or Logan O’Connor ($2800) – Colorado Avalanche Defense: Erik Johnson ($3200) – Colorado Avalanche or Brian Dumoulin ($3300) – Pittsburgh Penguins Value Options – FanDuel Center: Bo Horvat ($5600) – Vancouver Canucks Wing: Kasperi Kapanen ($4400) – Pittsburgh Penguins Defense: Tyler Myers ($3800) – Vancouver Canucks or Brian Dumoulin ($3600) – Pittsburgh Penguins Cash Considerations – DraftKings Mika Zibanejad – C – New York Rangers Mikko Rantanen – W – Colorado Avalanche Aaron Ekblad – D – Florida Panthers Darcy Kuemper – G – Colorado Avalanche Cash Considerations – FanDuel Mika Zibanejad – C – New York Rangers Mikko Rantanen – W – Colorado Avalanche Aaron Ekblad – D – Florida Panthers Darcy Kuemper – G – Colorado Avalanche Make sure to hop in our Expert Discord Chat for FREE!

NHL NHL DFS Hot Shot for DraftKings and FanDuel (Dec. 9) Richard Masana 2 years ago written by Richard Masana This article focuses on 12/9 NHL Picks for both DraftKings Sportsbook and DraftKings Daily Fantasy. We analyze tournament tactics, statistics, pricing, and attempt to tackle this highly variable Daily Fantasy format so that we can gain an edge on the field at large. Full rankings for each position for both sites are available below. Thursday 12/9 NHL Slate and DFS Gameplan Welcome back to the Hot Shot for a ten-game Thursday slate! With these larger slates, I highly advise passing on full three-man lines but instead going with pairs of two-man stacks as the goal is to attempt to capture the top scorers on the night across multiple games. Full DraftKings Rankings can be found below as well as cash game considerations for each site. With the biggest favorite on this slate, the Blues, carrying a money line of only -170, there is a greater degree of parity than usual across many of the slate’s top options. Three Favorite Lines Toronto/Tampa Game “A pair of Two Man Stacks from either Team like William Nylander/John Tavares, Auston Matthews/Wayne Simmonds, Ondrej Palat/Steven Stamkos, etc.” This game involves two great goaltenders and particularly with some of Tampa Bay’s injuries, on its face, you think low scoring. However, the numbers tell a different story as Tampa has been a lock for three or four goals regardless of opponent lately and Toronto has been playing in some fast-paced shootouts. Picking out a line here is sort of tough as both teams really spread the wealth so to speak. Ultimately this game should exceed the lofty six total. St. Louis Two 2 Man “Vladimir Tarasenko and Brayden Schenn” The first line is cheap as well but aside from Pavel Buchnevich, they have not really been producing and only Ryan O’Reilly features on the top power-play unit. As mentioned above, St. Louis is the biggest favorite on the slate here. Previously, Buchnevich was paired with Tarasenko skewing the data sample but assuming Schenn can compensate somewhat, we get a bit more exposure to the top power-play unit and the team’s best player in Tarasenko going this route. Chicago One “Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, Brandon Hagel” This shouldn’t be a very high-scoring line but this line is fairly cheap and if any team is scoring here, it’s probably the Blackhawks. Chicago has won its last six games visiting Montreal, whereas the hosts arrive in poor form, having dropped their last four. I think they will have some extra incentive to score and grab the win for Quebec native Marc-Andre Fleury who will be seeking his 500th career win in the net. 12/9 NHL Game Odds and Totals Main Slate of Games – Beginning 7 p.m. ET Tampa Bay Lightning (+115) at Toronto Maple Leafs (-135) – 6 Projected Goal Total Anaheim Ducks (-115) at Columbus Blue Jackets (+105) – 6 Projected Goal Total Chicago Blackhawks (-130) at Montreal Canadiens (+110) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Nashville Predators (-105) at New York Islanders (-115) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Detroit Red Wings (+150) at St. Louis Blues (-170) – 6 Projected Goal Total Carolina Hurricanes (-105) at Calgary Flames (-115) – 5.5 Projected Goal Total Boston Bruins (+105) at Edmonton Oilers (-125) – 6 Projected Goal Total Winnipeg Jets (-110) at Seattle Kraken (-110) – 6 Projected Goal Total Minnesota Wild (-145) at San Jose Sharks (+125) – 6 Projected Goal Total Dallas Stars (-135) at Los Angeles Kings (+115) – 5 Projected Goal Total 12/9 NHL DraftKings Individual Rankings Centers Auston Matthews- Toronto – $9,300 Ryan O’Reilly – St. Louis – $4,600 Yanni Gourde – Seattle – $5,100 Pierre Luc-Dubois – Columbus – $6,200 Roope Hintz – Dallas – $6,900 Wingers Vladimir Tarasenko – St. Louis – $5,400 Kirill Kaprizov – Minnesota – $7,600 Alex DeBrincat – Chicago – $6,600 Pavel Buchnevich – St. Louis – $4,100 Jordan Eberle – Seattle – $4,900 Defense Erik Karlsson – Sharks – $4,700 Adam Boqvist – Columbus – $2,900 Ryan Suter – Dallas – $3,100 Jamie Oleksiak – Seattle – $3,400 Josh Morrisey – Winnipeg – $3,700 Goalies Anton Khudobin – Dallas – $8,300 Ilya Sorokin – Islanders – $7,700 Cash Considerations Vladimir Tarasenko, Pavel Buchnevich, Erik Karlsson, Adam Boqvist, Auston Matthews Make sure to hop in our Expert Discord Chat for FREE!
