New York Rangers

Welcome to the Saturday Slapshot, where I’ll go through the top NHL DFS Goalies and Stacks on DraftKings and Fanduel. 

It’s Saturday and that means we have plenty of games to navigate through.  The NHL schedule makers have blessed us with a very manageable 9-game slate of NHL DFS.  This slate packs a lot of punch.  We have some teams in great spots and we also have some games that are going to be boring that we can cross of our list from the starts.   

Let’s dig in and make some money!

NHL DFS Goalies

Alex Lyon vs. Ottawa Senators

Alex Lyon has been playing some great hockey of late.  Over the last 3 weeks, Lyon has started 4 games for the Red Wings.  In those 4 starts, he’s been exceptional.  He’s posted a save % of .959, while allowing just 1.25 goals per game.  He’s going to have his hands somewhat full tonight vs. an above-average Ottawa Senators offense. 

That said, I like this spot for him and so does Vegas as the Red Wings are -130 favorites in this one.  With a price tag of $7.8k, I’ll be all over Lyon in both GPP’s and Cash games.  He has 4 straight games of at least 15 DK points.  Look for him to make it 5 straight games as he continues to play stellar hockey this season.

Juuse Saros vs. Toronto Maple Leafs

The matchup isn’t the best for Juice tonight, but the price tag is and so is his play of late.  At just $7.1k on DK tonight, we’re getting a goalie that is extremely inexpensive and one that is playing lights out right now.  Apart from his 1 start vs. Minnesota at the end of November, Saros 7 games over 13 DK points in his last 8 games.  He should face a barrage of shots tonight against a Leafs team that is taking around 30 shots on goal per game. 

There is plenty of upside for Saros tonight at this price.  Even if he lets in a couple of goals, it’s not going to kill us at this price point.  He’s one of the best value goalies on this slate.  With all that being said, he’s reserved strictly for GPP’s tonight. 

Other goalies: Thatcher Demko and Cam Talbot 

NHL DFS Stacks – Main

Detroit 1 (Dylan Larkin, Robby Fabbri, Lucas Raymond) vs. Ottawa Senators

This is an absolute smash spot for the Detroit Red Wings tonight.  The Senators have been giving up around 3 goals per game over the last couple of weeks.  In net for them tonight will be Joonas Korpisalo.  Korpisalo has been statistically one of the worst goalies over the past few weeks.  He’s only played 2 games over the last 3 weeks, but those 2 games have been awful.  He’s allowed 9 goals over those 2 games with a save % of just .850.  This is the type of goalie that we need to target when he’s in net.

This top line for Detroit is where most of the scoring comes from.  Over their last 5 games, this trio has combined for 8 goals and 10 assists.  That’s the type of production I love to see and he should really help us get to the top of the leaderboards with the matchup that they have.  Outside of Larkin, this line is also very affordable. 

Both Fabbri and Raymond are in the low $5k range this evening.  They are also the most productive of the 3, making them my priority tonight.  You can certainly add in Larkin, but Fabbri and Raymon are my core with this line.  Expect this line to have a solid night against a Senators team that isn’t solid defensively right now.  

Rangers 2 (Artemi Panarin, Vincent Trochek, Alexis  Lafrenière) vs. Seattle Kraken

The New York Rangers head south tonight to take on the Capitals in the nation’s capital.  This second unit for the New York Rangers has been a money maker for me this season as they’ve been one of the most productive lines in all of hockey on a consistent basis.  They’ll get a strong matchup tonight vs. a Capitals team that has given up 3.50 goals per game over the last couple of weeks.  They are also giving up well over 30 shots on goal per game.

Artemi Panarin is the star of the show with this line.  He’s been solid all year and is on pace to have his first 100-point season of his career.  He’s already up to 16 goals on the year and pacing to have his first 40-goal season of his career as well.  The Breadman is so far making a strong case for the Hart Trophy. 

Alongside him will be Trochek and Laf.  Both guys are playing some amazing hockey and have reveled playing alongside Panarin.  Look for this line to continue their torrid play in a great matchup vs. an aging Capitals team. 

Other stacks I like tonight:

Buffalo 1 and 2 vs. Montreal

Montreal 1 vs. Buffalo

Toronto 1 vs. Nashville

LA 1 and 2 vs. Islanders

Blues 1 vs. Chicago

TB 1 and 2 vs. Seattle

Value D

Cam York – $4.2k

Mikhail Sergachev – $4.7k

Alexander Romanov – $3.7k

Colton Parayko – $4.3k

Ben Chiarot – $3.3k

Mattias Samuelsson – $3.2k

NHL DFS Summary

We have a solid slate tonight. I didn’t mention them in my top stacks, but I love this spot for Los Angeles tonight.  Especially the second line of Danault, Fiala, and Moore.

Welcome to the Saturday Slapshot, where I’ll go through the top NHL DFS Goalies and Stacks on DraftKings and Fanduel. 

It’s Saturday and that means we have ourselves a nice slate to look forward to.  NHL has blessed us with a very manageable 9-game slate of NHL DFS.  This slate has a little bit of everything.  We have a cross-town rivalry between the Rangers/Devils and we also have some lopsided matchups such as the Bruins vs. Canadiens.  There should be plenty of scoring on this slate. 

Let’s dig in and make some money!

NHL DFS Goalies

Jonathan Quick vs. New Jersey Devils

As a Rangers fan growing up, this game might have some extra meaning for Jonathan Quick.  Rangers and Devils have long been rivals and these guys typically turn into slug fests.  I’m expecting this game to be on the lower end of the scoring range, at least from the Devils side of things.  At just $7.6k on DK tonight with Quick, we have a very affordable goalie who for all intents and purposes has been brilliant for the Rangers. 

Through 6 games played, Quick is posting a .928 save % and just a 1.98 GAA.  These are some of the best numbers of his long and illustrious career.  The Rangers have had a long layoff so there might be some rust on defense, but I still think that Quick brings his A-game today and shuts down the Devils.  Keep an eye on the status of Shesterkin though on this one because there’s a chance he returns tonight. 

Karel Vejmelka vs. Winnipeg Jets

If you read most of my articles, you know that I have an affinity for the Coyotes netminder in Karel Vejmelka.  He’s someone that always comes in on the cheaper end of the salary spectrum, but someone that normally performs rather well.  Even in the toughest of games.  Vejmelka almost always faces a ton of shots and that 35-save bonus is almost always in play for him.  He’s in a little bit of a rough stretch as he’s lost 6 straight. 

Even with losing that many in a row, he’s still in double-digit DK points in 3 of them.  And has only been negative once.  At his price, we’re looking for double-dights on DK and that is definitely doable against a Jets team that is averaging around 30 shots per game.  He’s always risky, but there’s definitely some reward with him.  GPP only. 

Other goalies: Igor Shesterkin, Tristan Jarry, and Ilya Samsonov

NHL DFS Stacks – Main

Rangers 2 (Artemi Panarin, Vincent Trocheck, Alexis Lafreniere) vs. New Jersey Devils. 

Before the mini-break that the Rangers had, this line was on absolute fire.  They should continue with their strong play tonight against a Devils team that has had some poor goaltending.  Over the last 2 weeks, the Devils have given up 4 goals per game.  Of all the teams playing tonight, that is tied for the second most. 

They should have Vitek Vanecek in goal tonight and on the year he just hasn’t been very good.  He’s posted a sub .890 save % and a 3.30 GAA.  He can be had tonight and it will be music to my ears as the Rangers score a bunch of goals on him.

Since putting Trocheck with this line, they have been brilliant.  They have a combined 4 goals over the last 5 games but most importantly, they are firing at all costs.  They also have a combined 60-shot attempt on goal.  That’s the most of any line playing tonight.  The leader of this line is Artemi Panarin.  He’s been a beast this season for the Rangers with 8 goals and 16 assists.  He’s well on his way to his first 100-point season with the New York Rangers and his career. 

Alongside him, I plan on locking in both Trocheck and Lafreniere.  I said it early in the year, he’s going to have a monster season.  He’s currently on pace for 41 goals which would annihilate his career high of 19.  Love this line for a pair of goals tonight. 

Vancouver 1 (Elias Pettersson, Ilya Mikheyev, Conor Garland) vs. Seattle Kraken

The Seattle Kraken just haven’t been very good defensively of late.  Over the last couple of weeks, they have given up 4 goals per game and around 13 high-danger chances per game.  Both are among the worst out of all the teams playing tonight.  The Vancouver Canucks should be able to get a few goals past him tonight and I like this top line for Vancouver to do someone the damage.  I would not blame you one bit for dropping down the second line of Miller and Boeser.  I just like it here at the top just a little bit more.

The main focal point of this top line is Elias Pettersson.  He’s the star of the show and the star I plan on locking in with this stack.  Over his last 5 games, he’s found the back of the net twice and helped with 4 others for 6 points.  He should easily add to that total tonight in an easy matchup vs. a bad defensive team.  I plan on pairing him mostly with Ilya Mikheyev.  On the year, Mikheyev has 6 goals and 3 apples for 9 points.  He should also be able to add to the total tonight.  Again, I have no problem with dropping down the second unit for the Canucks tonight.  They should also have a strong game and will come in both cheaper an at a lower ownership %. 

Other stacks I like tonight:

Boston 1 and 2 vs. Montreal

Calgary 2 vs. Islanders

Pittsburgh 1 and 2 vs. Carolina

Winnipeg 1 vs. Arizona

LA 1 vs. St. Louis

St. Louis 1 and 2 vs. LA

Value D

Nikita Zadorov $2.8k

Neal Pionk $3.7k

Brendan Dillon $3.2k

NHL DFS Summary

We have a solid slate tonight.  I didn’t mention them in my top stack, but the Bruins are in a great spots tonight and should score a ton of goals vs. Montreal and Jake Allen.  That said, I really love the Rangers tonight against a Devils team that just isn’t as good defensively this year as they have in the past.

Welcome to Between the Benches, where I’ll go through the top NHL DFS Goalies and Stacks on DraftKings and Fanduel. 

This Sunday we have ourselves a larger than normal slate as the NHL has given 4 games to make ourselves some NHL DFS money.  This slate has a couple of really lopsided games as the Rangers will take on the Blue Jackets and the Ducks get the Sharks.  There should be plenty of offense to go around and I’ll surely be stacking my favorite team.

Let’s dig in and make some money!

NHL DFS Goalies

Jonathan Quick vs. Columbus Blue Jackets

As long as he gets a clean bill of health, Jonathan Quick should be between the pipes for the Rangers tonight.  He’s a little pricier than I normally like to use on my goalie, but he’s been rock solid for the team he grew up rooting for.  Quick has so far played in 5 games for the Rangers this season.  He’s been in dougle-digit DK points in all but one of them and that was his initial start.  His GAA is a measly 1.77 and has a .935 save %. 

He should be able to keep in line a team that has been scoring just 3 goals per game over the last couple of weeks.  The Rangers have been rock solid on D and that means that Quick should be getting some easy shots to push away.  Quick and the Rangers are massive favorites in this one so he should see that Win bonus. 

John Gibson vs. San Jose Sharks

John Gibson is on pace to have his best season since all the way back in 2016.  His GAA are the lowest it’s been since that season and his save % of .921 is the highest it’s been since 2017.  This is a much better Ducks team than last year and there’s a strong possibility that they sneak into the playoffs this year. 

The Ducks get a great matchup in this one and are nearly -200 favorites.  Gibson too is a little more than I normally pay for him but there’s definitely upside with him tonight with the potential for a shutout and a win vs. the worst team in the league.  Lock and load with our friend Gibson tonight. 

NHL DFS Stacks – Main

Ranges 2 (Artemi Panarin, Vincent Trocheck, Alexis Lafreniere) vs. Columbus Blue Jackets

This Rangers has looked amazing to start the season.  I’m not just saying that because I’m a die-hard Rangers fan, but because they actually look really good.  Only the Knights and the Bruins have started out the season better than the Rangers.  They’ll get a tasty matchup vs. a Blue Jackets team that has struggled over the last couple of weeks. 

Over the last 2 weeks, the Blue Jackets have given up 4 goals per game and close to 15 high-danger chances a game.  They’ll have Elvis Merzlikins in net and he’s a goalie that when the matchup dictates it, I love to pick on. 

The Rangers’ second unit has been by far their best unit of the year.  Even though they’ve lost Chytil for a little bit, there hasn’t been any loss of productivity as Trocheck has filled in admirably.  This line is anchored by Panarin.  He’s having one of his finest seasons and over his last 5 games, he has 10 points thanks to his 4 goals and 6 assists. 

I’ll look to definitely pair him with Laf as Laf is finally coming into his own this season.  Over his last 5 games, he has 5 points.  At just $4k tonight, he’ll allow us some payroll flexibility.  This line should be extremely productive this season vs. a bad Blue Jackets team.

Anaheim 2 (Mason McTavish, Alex Killorn, Ryan Strome) vs. San Jose Sharks

While the Sharks have finally won a couple of games, they are still a really bad team that has given up more than 5 goals per game over the last couple of weeks.  They are bleeding shots as they’re giving up very close to 40 shots on goal per game over their last 6. 

The Sharks are a team that I will continue to stack against any chance I get.  Especially when they have a goalie like Mackenzie Blackwood who has a GAA of 4 this season and a save % below .900.  He’s struggled in net and will continue to struggle against a much improved Ducks team.

This line is ready for a breakthrough.  Over their last 3 games, this line has 34 shot attempts.  Although they only have 1 goal together, they are due if they continue to try to put as many pucks on the net as they currently are.  This line is also a really solid value and is going to allow us to fit in those expensive Rangers I want tonight. 

Mason McTavish leads the way for this line with 6 points over his last 5 games.  3 of those points were goals so we have some upside with him.  He’s also putting a ton of shots on net as he’s averaging 4 shots on goal per game over that stretch.  I’ll look to lock in Killorn next to him.  He’s only played in 3 games so far this year but his last was his best as he recorded a pair of assists.  I like this line for a pair of goals tonight. 

Other stacks I like tonight:

Dallas 1 vs. Minnesota

Vancouver 1 and 2 vs. Montreal

Rangers 1 vs. Columbus

Value D

Erik Gustafsson $4.2k

Cam Flower $4.4k

Thomas Harley $3.3k

NHL DFS Summary

We finally have a decent sized slate on a Sunday night.  This slate has some potential blowout games with the Rangers and Ducks expected to score a ton of goals.  I plan on loading up on both teams tonight.

Welcome to Between the Benches, where I’ll go through the top NHL DFS Goalies and Stacks on DraftKings and Fanduel. 

It’s Tuesday and for those that follow the hockey schedule, you know this means we have a massive slate on our hands.  While all NHL teams are in action tonight, we are blessed with 26 teams playing on tonight’s main slate.  We’ll have plenty of options to stack, pick a goalie, and also some great value defensemen that will open up salary to get our favorite stacks. 

Let’s dig in and make some money!

NHL DFS Goalies

Filip Gustavsson vs. Edmonton Oilers    

We should see our good ole friend Filip  Gustavsson in between the pipes tonight for the Minnesota Wild.  So far this season we’ve seen a little bit of everything from Gustavsson.  We’ve seen a 41-save shutout, a game where he gave up 7 goals and a game where he got the OT loss while also giving up 5 goals.  So yeah, we’ve seen polar opposite performances from him in the young season.  I really like this spot for him though this evening. 

He’ll be facing off against an Edmonton team that will be with their star, Connor McDavid.  That puts a huge dent into the offensive power that the Oilers can possess.  If we look past the top line of Edmonton, they have little that should scare us.  Look for Gusty to rebound tonight and bring back some of that opening-night magic. He’s also only $7.9 on DK. 

Igor Shesterkin vs. Calgary Flames

Another goalie that has seen some inconsistent play this season is Igor Shesterkin.  He’s put together 2 gems and 2 duds.  With a date against the Calgary Flames tonight, I like his chances of returning to the glory land that saw him put up 21 DK points vs. the Coyotes and 19 vs. Buffalo.  He’s one of the top goaltenders in the league and I fully expect him to have a monster night as the Rangers continue their swing through the North West corner of North America. 

We can rarely get a goalie of Shesterkin’s magnitude for less than $8k on DK, and that’s what we’re going to be dealing with tonight as his price is just $7.9k.  I’ll take my chances with Shesty as the Flames are scoring less than 3 goals per game on the young season. 

Other goalies: Ilya Sorokin ($7.3k on DK) and Anthony Solarz ($8.2k on DK)

NHL DFS Stacks – Main

Florida 1 (Aleksander Barkov, Evan Rodrigues, Sam Reinhart) vs. San Jose Sharks

The Florida Panthers get the advantage of not only playing at home tonight but also playing against the winless San Jose Sharks.  The Sharks have so far been a mess this season, losing 4 of their first 5 games.  The only point they have so far is thanks to an OT loss.  They have struggled both on offense and defense as they are scoring just 1.4 goals per game and allowing nearly 4 goals per game.  Most importantly, they are giving up a ton of high-danger chances at 18 per game.  It’s going to be tough to win games when you are giving up that many high-danger chances.  In net for the Sharks will be Mackenzie Blackwood who has been awful to start the year as he has a GAA of 3.89.

My love for this line starts with Sam Reinhart.  Reinhart has been playing some amazing hockey to start the season.  He’s scored a goal in 4 of his team’s first 5 games and has essentially been shooting at will as he has been averaging nearly 4 shots on goal per game.  Having him paired with Barkov this season has been a blessing for him. 

Speaking of Barkov, while he’s only found the back of the net once so far this season he does have 6 helpers for the team lead.  Look for this line to dominate tonight and for Reinhart to continue his exceptional play to start the year.  Can he make it 5 straight games with at least 20 DK points?  I sure hope so because he’ll be a lock in my lineups tonight.

Detroit 1 (Dylan Larkin, Alex DeBrincat, Lucas Raymond) vs. Seattle Kraken

The Detroit Red Wings offense has started out the season on absolute fire. Through their first 6 games of the year, they are averaging 5 goals per game.  That is by far the most of any team so far on this young season.  A big reason why they have been scoring has been the play of the newest shiny weapon, Alex DeBrincat.  The former Senator and Blackhawk have been playing some amazing hockey so far.  Through his first 6 games, DeBrincat is already up to 12 points thanks to his 8 goals.  He’s had multiple goals in 4 games so far this season, including a hat trick in his last game against Calgary. 

I love the idea of pairing DeBrincat with Larkin tonight.  While Larkin only has 3 goals so far on this young season, he does have 8 assists.  These 2 players have been great together so far and although the Kraken are a bit stingy on defense and not the sloppiest of teams, they can be had and these 2 having home-ice advantage tonight should help them continue with the momentum they have built thus far.  Adding Lucas Raymond to this line gives us nice value as he’s only $4.2k.

Rangers 2 (Filip Chytil/Artemi Panarin/Alexis Lafreniere) vs. Calgary Flames

I’ve given 2 expensive lines so it’s only fair I give a cheapy.  Well, the line is cheap for the most part after Panarin.  While Panarin is the start of this line, I really like both Chytil and Lafreniere (Laf).  To say that Laf has thus far been a disappointment would be an accurate statement.  Something we need to remember is that he’s only 22 and is finally coming into his own.  He’s been playing much better this season and is a solid value for us tonight if you go with an expensive line to start.  At just $3.2k on DK, he’s someone who should see plenty of opportunities to score tonight while paired with Panarin.  Chytil himself is also a solid value at $4.3k.  Both of these kids can easily find the net tonight against the Flames. 

Other stacks I like tonight:

Tampa 1 or 2 vs. Carolina

Montreal 3 vs. Jersey

Jersey 1 vs. Montreal

Boston 1 and 2 vs. Chicago

Minnesota 1 and 2 vs. Edmonton

Value D

Jacob Trouba – 4.2 blocks per game

Mario Ferraro – 6 shots plus blocks per game over last 5

Jacob Slavin – 5 shots plus blocks per game over last 5

Matt Roy – 5 shots plus blocks per game over last 5

NHL DFS Summary

This is a massive slate that can take us in multiple directions.  I plan on going heavy with both the Red Wings and Panthers tonight.
