Studs and Stacks – December 1

The NHL season is in full swing, and daily fantasy hockey enthusiasts continue to get in on the action on DraftKings and FanDuel. 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: Nico Hischier
Five goals and five assists during his five-game point streak; has been great since Jack Hughes has been out, and the Devils are in a great spot tonight at home.

The Pivot: Macklin Celebrini
Second in the league in scoring and facing an average Utah defense.  Should have a good number of chances tonight.

The Low-Owned: Logan Cooley
Think most will gravitate toward the other side of this game, but Cooley has been hot recently with five goals and two helpers in his last five games.

The Value: Arseny Gritsyuk
Two goals (and 15 shots) in his last five games; L2 and PP2.

STACKS

The Full: NJ (Hischier-Meier-Bratt-Mercer)
Ten goals and 17 assists between them in their last five games; don’t mind eating the chalk in this one at all.

The Mini: SJ (Celebrini-Smith)
If I’m mini-stacking the Sharks, it’s these two…they’re L1/PP1 together and have not only four goals and six assists between them in their last five, their floor is great two (35 shots during that same stretch).
