The Playoffs Slapshot – 4/21

It’s always hard to sweep in the NHL playoffs and home ice isn’t always what you want it to be.  So the two series tonight that are in game two could be ones to go opposite with the Jets winning the first home game and the Stars taking G1 on the road in Colorado.  So your best upset tonight would be the Blues over the Jets, but honestly I don’t see the Blues getting one tonight, and the Stars getting game two to even things up with the Avs.  This really is do or die IMO for the Stars.

DALLAS STARS

Hintz – Dadanov – Granlund

OILERS / KINGS

EDM:  Draisaitl – Arvidsson

LAK:  Danault – Moore

 

CENTERS

Like playing 3 centers tonight.

  1. Pierre-Luc Dubois – Favorite one off to score
  2. Roope Hintz
  3. Leon Draisaitl

WINGS

  1. Viktor Arvidsson
  2. Patrik Laine
  3. Mikko Rantanen
  4. Jordan Kyrou
  5. Evgenii Dadanov – I like going DAL1 just because of their value.  One goal and you’re good here with just having two of them (Hintz/Dadanov)
  6. Anthony Beauvillier – Value

DEFENSE

  1. Jakub Chychrun
  2. Brandt Clarke
  3. Thomas Harley
  4. Neal Pionk
