Studs and Stacks – January 14
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: Artemi Panarin
Playing his best hockey of the season (and the quality that we’re used to seeing from him) with a seven-game point streak (two goals and 10 assists).
The Pivot: Jack Hughes
Just four helpers in his last five games, but he’s also taken 18 shots, so the floor is definitely there, and the Devils are the largest favorites on the slate.

The Low-Owned: Mark Stone
Vegas has a tough matchup defensively, but it’s a small slate, and Stone has notched seven goals and five helpers during an eight-game point streak.
The Value: Kaapo Kaako
Two goals and three assists in his last five.
STACKS
The Full: NYR (Panarin-Zibanejad-Trocheck-Lafreniere)
29 points (11 goals) between them over the past five games and might have the most upside on the slate.
The Mini: BUF (Tuch-McLeod)
Five goals and five assists in their last five games combined, and not only are they on PP2/PK1 together, it’s a nice way to get a little different from the top even strength and power play lines.
