Enormous slate tonight. We need to stay true to our convictions, even if there are several good spots. If you need multiple lineups do that, but we know what what works. What works is signing up with the Army and getting in my discord. What works is being in a community that strategizes with positivity. Random note before my stacks, the Kraken goalie vs the Sharks is the chalkiest goalie on the slate. The goalie against the Sharks pretty much always will be for this entire year.
Snipe #1 – Connor Bedard – Seth Jones
The Blue Jackets have abysmal goaltending, and as a consistent viewer of their games, they give up tons of odd-man rushes per game. If Bedard gets 1 or more odd-man rushes, he has slate breaking upside. A quick strike team vs a team that can’t even convert successful line changes is a recipe for upside. Seth Jones isnin a revenge game spot, and is just a way better player than people give him credit for. Tons of minutes, every situation, and a high floor and ceiling for the PP quarterback in Jones. The Blackhawks are invested in Bedard and Jones forever, and they will be on the ice together for a large portion of the time, even though Jones isn’t a winger. I really like this skinny stack on this gigantic slate.

Snipe #2 – Dylan Strome – Alex Ovechkin
Ovechkin is going to continue to score, this is the most known thing in the NHL. If he is healthy, he is going to be a volume shooter, and he is going to score. We are getting him at a slight discount from his career price in DFS. Strome is his center right now on his line, and on the powerplay. If we are predicting Ovechkin to shoot and score, we are gambling on Strome passing him the puck. Also, the Sabres have struggled in goal as well as defensively to start the year. No one is liking the Capitals stacks so far this year, which means they are a good contrarian GPP build.
Grinder #1 – Casey Mittlestadt – Cheap, Washington is pretty mid defensively and in net, and Tage Thompson is on IR. Mittlestadt is being asked to step his game up and is on the top line for the Sabres. 19’ish minutes a game, and a ton of offensive potential.
Grinder #2 – Alex Killorn – Top line and powerplay unit for the Ducks who are in a good spot at home vs Montreal. Montreal can be leaky at times, and the Ducks are in need of a righting of the ship. Cheap price for the upside.
Bankroll Grinder – I have a +580 three leg parlay for you guys. CHI/CBJ over 6.5, NYI/PHI under 6, and COL/VAN over 6.5. There yall go.
