The Slapshot – Jan 23rd

SENATORS

Stuetzle, Batherson, Greig

Here come the Senators with high scoring games of late and the fantasy friendly Habs on the schedule.

OILERS, SABRES, RANGERS …

I am putting all of these teams into a single category here.  They’ll all be up against favorable opponents but have some high prices on their studs which make building around them a stack a difficult proposition.

  • Edmonton:  It will be hard to imagine the Blue Jackets having enough puck possession tonight to limit Edmonton’s upside, and the Oilers PP is definitely scoring, which should point us to someone on the defense possibly contributing (Bouchard, Nurse).  The best overall play is Zach Hyman – $8400, and the best value pick here is Warren Foegle.
  • Buffalo:  A ton of low scoring games of late for Buffalo & maybe that’s been them just hating playing at home where they are shoveling snow all day long before the games.  Going out to California is gonna give them a burst.  There’s too much juice to not like this game….   Thompson, Skinner, Tuch for Buffalo.
  • Rangers:  Sharks are on B2B.  Rangers got going late in Anaheim.  Panarin scores.
