Correlated Snipe #1 – Scott Laughton – Cam Atkinson

We need to await line updates for the Flyers but they appear to be the Sharks’ next bully. The Sharks historically gave up 10 goals in each of their last 2 games losing by a total of 20-3. Even if I knew zero about hockey, one can assume that is atrocious. The Flyers are not a high flying team (pun absolutely intended), but that matters not against the Sharks. We need to be targeting the Sharks until they prove us wrong. We need to pay attention to finalized lines to see if Couturier returns or not. We know what to do, and that is take guys in the top 6 that correlate on the powerplay as well.

Correlated Snipe #2 – Sebastian Aho – Seth Jarvis
The Hurricanes are at home against the Sabres. This is a good spot because the Sabres have been super leaky defensively and have had sub-par goaltending. Carolina’s offense is starting to come along, and at home against a team that leaks scoring opportunities is a decent spot to attack. The Sabres also should be missing a 200 ft center in Dylan Cozens which should hurt them defensively. Aho is still at a nice price since he has not yet blown up yet, and Seth Jarvis has been the model of consistency.
Grinder #1 – Marco Rossi – Still too cheap on DK, as his salary has not yet been adjusted. He is getting 20 minutes a night since he earned the top line center and top powerplay unit role
Grinder #2 – Juraj Slafkovsky – Top line with Suzuki and Caufield. Scored last game with increased ice time. This youngester and former top draft pick should start being motivated to advance his career and take a step
Grinder #3 – Erik Gustafsson – Top powerplay unit and around 20 minutes a game since Adam Fox went down. My favorite defenseman play of the slate
Bankroll Grinder – A 3 leg parlay at +678. I have CAR/BUF over 6.5, MTL/TB over 6.5, and PHI -1.5. Bang!
