The BIG News
- Coming off a loss last night, I’d keep a close eye on the Tampa Bay Lightning lines during pre-game warmups. At the end of their game against the Rangers, Point-Palat-Johnson were skating together for a shift or two. Pat Maroon is also out. Cory Conacher and Alexander Volkov were recalled from the AHL. Both are the bare min on DraftKings.
- No Landeskog or Rantanen for the Avs tonight. Full PP1 correlation for COL1. New lines:
- Kadri-MacKinnon-Donskoi
- Burakovsky-Jost-Compher
- Nichushkin-Kamenev-Megna
- Nieto-Bellemare-Calvert
- New middle six for the Panthers:
- Hoffman-Boyle-Connolly
- Vatrano-Malgin-Hawryluk
- New lines for the Kings. Full PP1 correlation for LAK2. Tyler Toffoli is a healthy scratch.
- Grundstrom-Kopitar-Carter
- Iafallo-Kempe-Brown
- Clifford-Lizotte-Wagner
- Prokhorkin-Amadio-Kovalchuk
- New top line for the Blues with no Tarasenko for a while. Sammy Blais moves up to the top line with Schenn and Schwartz.
- Victor Hedman is questionable for tonight’s contest against the Devils. Watch line rushes. Upgrade McDonagh, Sergachev is he can’t go. Sergachev was on the top PP unit in Hedman’s absence last night.
- Cale Makar split time on the top PP unit with Samuel Girard last game. It looks like he’s back on the top-unit for now.
The Medium News
- Nikita Gusev is out for the Devils. Jesper Bratt moves on to NJD2.
- Colton Parayko is up on the top Blues PP unit.
