Welcome to WinDaily’s newest edition of the NHL Stack and Track! In this article, the 1/16 NHL Stack and Track, we will look at the top NHL stacks at each price range and rank the best and the worst goalie spots to target in tonight’s nice 13-game slate.
1/16 NHL Stack Report
- Washington Capitals One $$$
Ovechkin – Backstrom – Wilson (FanDuel: $19,900 | DraftKings: $18,900)
– Last time these two teams faced off Washington got destroyed. It wasn’t close and it was a complete statistical anomaly. Given the last result, ownership on Washington’s top two lines may take a hit and that provides us with the perfect opportunity to pounce. The stats still give Washington the edge, they will come in tonight with a chip on their shoulder and they will have a much more successful goalie for them in between the pipes.
Ideal Defensive Partner: John Carlson [Kempny also viable] (FD: $7,100 | DK: $7,300) - Tampa Bay Lightning Two $$
Johnson – Cirelli – Stamkos (FanDuel: $17,600 | DraftKings: $15,700)
– Stamkos will most likely spend a majority of his ice-time alongside his even-strength linemates who both hold significant value and lower the overall price of the line. Stamkos can also be played alongside his power-play linemates if deciding to go all-in against Minnesota. Tampa has won 11 of their last 12 games and is tied for third in the league for goals per game. This line has the hot hand coming into Minnesota tonight and given that the top line will hold higher ownership, this line can provide a lower owned option for GPP plays.
Ideal Defensive Partner: Mikhail Sergachev (FD: $4,700 | DK: $4,200) - Florida Panthers Two $
Acciari – Trochek – Connolly (FanDuel: $14,200 | DraftKings: $14,300)
– Continuing with the overall theme of this article, this line appears to be the smarter play despite most likely holding significantly lower ownership compared to Florida’s expensive top line. Kopitar has done a solid job at shutting down but the Kings have overall been unable to find the back of the net while letting in an average of over 3 goals against per game. On top of this, the Kings have been awful on the road and Florida has been extremely successful at defending the fort and rookie goalie Chris Driedger has had an excellent start to the season winning five of his first seven games.
Ideal Defensive Partner: Riley Stillman [Risky] (FD: $3,500 | DK: $3,300)
Honorable Mention(s): Nashville Predators Two, Vegas Golden Knights Two
1/16 NHL Goalie Tracker
Best
- Ilya Samsonov (FD: $8,200 | DK: $8,300)
- Chris Driedger (FD: $7,100 | DK: $8,000)
- Semyon Varlamov (FD: $7,800 | DK: $8,400)
Honorable Mention(s): Marc-Andre Fleury, Andrei Vasilevskiy
Worst
- John Gibson (FD: $7,700 | DK: $7,200)
- Jonathan Quick (FD: $7,100 | DK: $7,100)
- Craig Anderson (FD: $7,200 | DK: $7,100)
Honorable Mention(s): Martin Jones, Mackenzie Blackwood (or whoever the Devils Start in goal)
1/16 NHL Wild Card of the Day
Conor Garland (FD: $3,500 | DK: $4,500)
– Garland has benefitted tremendously from playing alongside former MVP and first overall selection Taylor Hall. In his past two games Garland has four points (2G, 2A) and seven shots with two blocked shots and an average of 17 minutes of ice-time over those two games. He is hot and hasn’t received quite enough traction to end up on most people’s radars. Tonight, Garland and the Yotes face off against the Canucks who rank among the bottom of the league in goals allowed per game (19th in the league) and allow even more shots against per game. (27th in the league)
Honorable Mention(s): Lindell, Ryan, Girard
Game Stack of the Day:
TOR1/CGY1
