Hi Everyone!
Happy Wednesday!
Let’s take a look at today’s DraftKings NHL “Main Slate” lineup that features 6 games and starts at 7:30pm!
DON’T FORGET TO CHECK OUT OUR NHL FANDUEL “MAIN SLATE” LINEUP FOR TODAY!!!
Kicking off our lineup tonight, we’re going to be taking a look at the Washington Capitals in their home match-up against the Nashville Predators tonight.
Washington comes into this match-up with the best record in the NHL (34-11-5) and a large part of their success has been due to their outstanding offense that currently ranks 5th in goals/game (3.56).
We like the Capitals match-up against the Nashville Predators tonight who have lost three of their last four games while allowing 3.5 goals in that span. Nashville has really struggled with their goal tending this season and gets a nice match-up against Juuse Saros who comes into this game with a 2.78 GAA & .895 SV% and is coming off a tough game against Anaheim in which he allowed 4 goals in just 27 shots.
For the Capitals, we’re going to go with a 4-man stack of Nicklas Backstrom, Alex Ovechkin, Tom Wilson and John Carlson.
For our value stack tonight, we’re going to look at the Vancouver Canucks in their road match-up agianst the San Jose Sharks.
Vancouver has been playing outstanding hockey since mid-December which has helped them take the lead in the Pacific Division. Vancouver comes into this game ranked 10th in goals/game (3.24).
The match-up is a decent one against the Sharks as San Jose currently ranks 28th in goals allowed/game (3.29) and recently gave up four goals to this same Canucks team in a defeat about two weeks ago.
For the Canucks, we’re going with a 3-man stack of Bo Horvat, Tanner Pearson, and Loui Eriksson.
With our other defenseman spot, we’re going to get some value with Edmonton’s Ethan Bear in his home match-up agianst the Calgary Flames. Bear has been seeing some solid ice time as of late, even topping 25 minutes a few games ago and as he has registers at least 2 blocks shots & 2 shots on goal in each of his last three games, I like the value he brings at $3,200 tonight.
In net, we’re going with Toronto’s Frederik Andersen. Anderson hasn’t been great this year, put looked solid in his last match-up against the Predators and despite the tough match-up agianst the Stars on the road, Dallas hasn’t been great offensively this season and currently rank just 30th in goals scored/game at home at 2.60.
