Small 4 game slate here to attack. We stack hard here at the army when it comes to NHL, well, because, that’s how you win money; and we enjoy money here at the DFSarmy. So, let’s stack hard, be decisive, and make strong moves to create the highest upside possible on such a small slate.
Correlated Snipe #1 – Nathan Mackinnon – Mikko Rantanen – Valeri Nichushkin
You can always add Cale Makar to Colorado stacks. The Avalanche are at home against the Ducks who have been sliding a bit, and are on the second night of a back to back. The Avalanche should be facing Lukas Dostal who has had a nice start to the year, but had a shaky last game. This top line is reunited and is also on the top powerplay unit. They compliment each other beautifully and have as high of upside as any team in the NHL. The Pepsi Center will be a-rocking, and the young Ducks may get blitzed.

Correlated Snipe #2 – Leon Draisaitl – Zach Hyman
Typically I would stack Edmonton with McDavid’s line, but I don’t think he is fully healthy. Draisaitl and Hyman are clicking and also correlate on that top powerplay unit. The Oilers are at home and getting on the right track. The Kraken have been bad at everything to start the year, and that includes defense and goaltending. The new look Oilers had a good first game, and will look to apply that offensive firepower at home against the Kraken. Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Evan Bouchard are also viable Oilers if fully stacking this game.
Grinder #1 – Alex Killorn – Still top line and top powerplay unit for the Ducks. Too cheap at this price to pass up in cash games.
