The Slapshot – Wed, Feb 24th

 

TEAMS TO TARGET TONIGHT / STACKS

Colorado Avalanche

Mackinnon & Rantanen + Makar

A great pivot IMO off Toronto who will likely be chased again after finally not doing well for once.  Toronto is facing Calgary again who I feel matches up well with them and Colorado gets a Minnesota team they’re much deeper and more talented than on their home ice.  Good spot to get a MacKinnon slate winning game.

St. Louis Blues

O’Reilly, Perron, Kyrou, Krug

What a world 2021 is, we are stacking Blues and Kings yet again.

 

Key Skaters

CENTERS

  • Nathan MacKinnon … Dominates the Wild
  • Sean Couturier
  • Ryan O’Reilly
  • Anze Kopitar … 14 ppg in 3 games vs Blues so far this year.

WINGS

  • Matthew Tkachuk … Starting to see good players who started off slow break out of slumps.  Same is coming from Tkachuk who will get the SOG bonus and a goal tonight.
  • Mikko Rantanen / Andre Burakovsky
  • Rickard Rakell — Good value at only $4300
  • David Perron
  • Phil Kessel

DEFENSE

  • Cale Makar
  • Pick a Flyers Defenseman, any Flyers defenseman.  That’ll do   So look here for value with guys like Gustafsson, Sanheim or … no, do not play Robert Hagg….  He sucks.
  • Oliver Ekman-Larsson
  • Torey Krugg (VInce Dunn for value)

 

GOALIES

Carter Hart – 7800

I really don’t mind taking a reduced price Carter Hart when he is at home.  The young goalies splits have been massive at home and also when facing Boston and not facing Boston.

Darcy Keumper – 8000

 

LINE LOCK OF THE NIGHT:    MacKinnon – Rantanen – Burakovsky

STUD ONE OFF:    Matthew Tkachuk

VALUE ONE OFF:   Phil Kessel

FAVORITE BETS:   Avs/Wild OVER 5.5
