In this article, we spotlight today’s top NHL DFS studs and stack recommendations, focusing on high-upside players and synergistic line combinations that can elevate your lineups. Whether you’re targeting cash games or GPPs, these picks are designed to maximize value and exposure. Let’s dive into the matchups and identify the key players to target.
STUDS
The Stud: Kirill Kaprizov
Four goals and two assists in his last five games and the Wild get one of the best matchups on the slate against a sub-par Sabres defense.
The Pivot: Jack Eichel
Love the floor (four shots per game average) and the ceiling (31 points, tied for fifth in the league), and the Sharks’ defense isn’t that good.

The Low-Owned: John Tavares
Tavares has been great all season (12 goals and 16 assists in 23 games), partially due to Mitch Marner being gone and partially due to Auston Matthews missing time; however, even with Matthews back, he’s still playing extremely well and the Leafs have a good matchup.
The Value: Luke Evangelista
L1 and PP1; goal and four assists in his last three games.
STACKS
The Full: WPG (Connor-Scheifele-Vilardi)
Love the spot for Winnipeg tonight, and they always seem to go a bit overlooked.
The Mini: VGK (Eichel-Stone)
These two linemates have been reunited after Stone came back a couple of games ago from a lengthy injury and they’ve picked up right where they left off.
