The NHL season is in full swing, and daily fantasy hockey enthusiasts continue to get in on the action on DraftKings and FanDuel.

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: Nathan Mackinnon
League’s leading scorer facing the team allowing the most goals in the league.
The Pivot: Nikita Kucherov
Two goals and 11 assists in his last five games, and it’s no surprise that his heating up is directly correlated to the Bolts taking off.

The Low-Owned: Kirill Kaprizov
Not sure about how low-owned he’ll be, but as there are maybe higher-profile options, there could be some leverage here; six goals and an assists in his last five games and is third in the league in goals with 17.
The Value: Easton Cowan
Up on PP1 with the big boys.
STACKS
The Full: MIN (Kaprizov-Boldy-Eriksson Ek-Zuccarello)
Wild offense (especially the power play) is very good and the Oiler defense has been bad; also, most may go to Edmonton’s offense as they’re higher profile and Minnesota’s D isn’t that good, either.
The Mini: TB (Kucherov-Hagel)
10 goals and 15 assists between them in their last five games.
