Correlated Snipe #1 – Pavel Zacha – Morgan Geekie – David Pastrnak
The last time the Bruins faced the CBJ, Brad Marchand netted a natural hat-trick. Marchand and McAvoy are both stackable in Bruins stacks, but this top line that also correlates on the top powerplay unit is where I am putting my money. The Jackets are without Zach Werenski, and have questionable goaltending at best. The Jackets often give up tons of shots, and well, Pastrnak is a volume shooter. This matchup is quite simply a mismatch where the Bruins have a noticeable edge in talent and experience. This is a high upside stack for tournaments.

Correlated Snipe #2 – Filip Forsberg – Gustav Nyquist – Ryan O’Reilly
Roman Josi is absolutely in play on the this slate and at his price, as a wonderful correlating piece to this stack. The Blackhawks are coming off of back to back wallopings from the Dallas Stars, and now they are headed to Nashville. Nashville is fighting for points in a tight playoff race, and are historically a very tough home crowd to play against. Forsberg is healthy and back in form this year, and he now has chemistry with both of his new line-mates in Nyquist and O’Reilly. Nyquist may have a Swedish hockey connection with him as well. This is my favorite stack on the slate, with the raw upside being off the charts.
Grinder #2 – Jonathan Drouin – He has a low floor, but a high ceiling. Any player that is glued to Mackinnon and Rantanen on the top line and powerplay unit has a high ceiling.
Bankroll Grinder – I have a 3 leg parlay for y’all. Nashville -1.5, Toronto/LAK over 6.5, and Ottawa/Vancouver over 6.5. I have this at a cool +550
