The Slapshot – Dec 18th

PANTHERS

Bennett, Tkachuk, Verhaeghe

I think this line has the most upside tonight

RED WINGS

Dylan Larkin, Patrick Kane, Gostisbehere or Walman

The Wings will draw an Anaheim team playing 3 in 4 nights on a B2B on the road.  The Ducks swiped one in Jersey and I wouldn’t put any faith in them winning two in a row here against a banged up but still good Detroit team.

The Wings are playing well, have Dylan Larkin back and should get production from their D-Men tonight, so I would want to focus there with Walman/Seider being top ranked but Ghost is on PP1 so attacking a Ducks PK on a B2B is also a good build here.
