STUDS
The Stud: Connor Bedard
The league’s second-leading scorer against a bad Sabres defense that just played last night.
The Pivot: Sidney Crosby
Sid has 12 goals on the season and the Wild don’t play good defense at all.

The Low-Owned: David Pastrnak
Floor is great, and while the ceiling might be capped a smidge (the Kings don’t allow goals at all), he can still pop off at any point. Great tournament play on a small slate.
The Value: Morgan Geekie
Has 12 goals on the season and continues to go overlooked.
STACKS
The Full: CAR (Aho-Jarvis-Svechnikov-Ehlers)
The Hurricanes have a tougher matchup tonight, but it’s a four-gamer, so there’s not a ton that’s off limits, and these four (plus Stankoven) are basically all of Carolina’s offense.
The Mini: PIT (Malkin-Crosby)
Minnesota’s defense can be awful at times and their penalty kill is third-worst in the league, so why not pair these two future HOFers?
