STUDS
The Stud: Jason Robertson
Tied for third in goals (20) and second in shots; could easily go with Rantanen here, but the floor/ceiling combo is lovely with Robertson.
The Pivot: Nikita Kucherov
Two goals and eight assists in his last five games, and the Battle of Florida is always a good one.

The Low-Owned: Artemi Panarin
Still averaging a point a game and the Rangers are in a good spot.
The Value: Luke Evangelista
Five goals in his last five games.
STACKS
The Full: DAL (Rantanen-Robertson-Hintz-Johnston)
Nashville has allowed the seventh most goals in the league and the Stars have scored the third most while having the second-most effective power play.
The Mini: WPG (Connor-Vilardi)
Together on L1/PP1; the former has an eight-game point streak (four goals and eight assists) and the latter a six-game streak of his own (five goals and three assists).
