Edmonton Two – “Ryan Nugent-Hopkins ($6,300), Zach Hyman ($6,500), Warren Foegele ($3,100)”

I wrote them up and Edmonton promptly got slaughtered by Vancouver. However, of course, they would explode over their next two games following their mention. Tonight, you have three 7 total games headlining the twelve-game slate. However, where the other two games involve more parity, Oilers vs. Flyers does not. Edmonton is currently listed as -218 money-line favorite. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins has had three points in each of his last two games (a goal and two assists in both) so for $6,300 he may give us a solid floor for a fair price. The star of the trio, Leon Draisaitl has moved up to the Oiler’s top line after putting up seven points across three games including a four-point (two goal, two assist) effort last time out against Nashville. That provides us some value through Warren Foegele who has been elevated to Draisaitl’s former spot on the second line for only $3,100. Foegele is coming off a two-point game against the Predators himself. Finally, Zach Hyman is coming off a four-point effort against the Predators as well (one goal, two assists). Both RNH and Hyman have maintained roles on Edmonton’s vaunted top power-play unit.

10/19 NHL Favorite Contrarian Line

Colorado One – “Nathan MacKinnon ($6,600), Mikko Rantanen ($6,300), Valeri Nichuskin ($3,500)”

It involves a wait until the end of the night and a lot of salary but the Avs might be worth it. Their matchup only has a six total but Colorado are massive moneyline favorites at -345. This said many east coast DFS players may pass on them as they might be asleep by game time. Their loss is our gain. It has been a solid start so far for the young Blackhawks. However, one year removed from a Stanley Cup this might be a bounceback year for the Avs. They are third in the NHL “at least the two man of Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen” in terms of full-line goals so far in the young season.

Defensemen and Goalies

Defensemen

Pavel Mintyukov – Anaheim – $3,300 – The tenth overall pick of the 2022 draft has looked great so far. He puts shots on the net and is a capable scorer but can also earn the bonus for blocked shots. Mintyukov will have plenty of opportunities as he already features on the Duck’s top power-play unit. His price is affordable on a slate we want to save every dollar.

Cale Makar – Colorado -$7,700 – He is super expensive but that’s because he’s more like a top-scoring forward than a defenseman. If going all in on Colorado One as listed above, he makes for a full correlation with them. Something tells me this might be a career year for the young star and he may go off tonight.

Goalies

Carter Hart – Philadelphia- $7,200 – If you’re fading Edmonton, Hart makes for a terrific upside tournament play and carries some leverage. That said, he is certainly not a cash play or for the faint of “Hart” if you will.

Thatcher Demko – Vancouver – $7,400 – Not the easiest matchup but this is also a watered-down Lightning squad compared to years past that Demko will match up with. He is off to a phenomenal start to the season with a 1.70 GAA and .953 SV% and you have to trust the talent.

10/19 NHL Best Bet

Vancouver ML (+120) – DraftKings – 1 Unit

Following up on the note on Demko above, this is a Tampa team missing its heart and soul in Steven Stamkos and Andrei Vasilevskiy. The Lightning’s -4 point differential is tied for worst in the Eastern Conference early on. I wouldn’t be surprised if we look back on this later this season and say “Of course, we’d take Vancouver in that spot”. For now, we just side with the plus money.
