–It’s Thanksgiving Karma Nation–
With the holiday upon us, we give thanks for the 26 NHL teams in action today. There is a lot to consider when building your lineups, so time to introduce some value punts that can help you cash in.
-Insights and player picks for tonight’s 13 game schedule-
- Teams with greatest chance to win: BOS, TOR, TB
- Highest projected totals: FLA@WAS, CAR@NYR, EDM@COL
- Lowest projected totals: CAR@BUF, ANH@ARI, NYI@LA
Offense:
- Martin Necas CAR ($3600-DK, $3800-FD) has been a consistent point producer for the Canes with 10 points and 23 shots in his last 12 games. This game with the Rangers has one of the highest implied goal totals, and the Rangers rank next to last defensively against wingers.
- J.T. Compher COL ($3500-DK, $4500-FD) is an important part of the Avalanche offense as a top six skater and part of the second unit PP. Compher has three points, six shots, and four blocks in his last four games, and will be at home facing the Oilers is one of the top three game totals on tonight’s board,
- Brendan Lemieux NYR ($3100-DK, $3600-FD) has been a low-priced active producer for his team as well. Lemieux has seven points, taken 25 shots, and 14 blocks in his last 11 games, and gets home ice in the same high-scoring match up as Necas.
Also consider: Dillon Dube CGY ($2500-DK, $3000-FD) Daniel Carr NSH ($2600-DK, $3000-FD)
Defense:
- Mikhail Sergachev TB ($3800-DK, $4600-FD) has put together a great three-game stretch with two power-play goals on five shots and five blocks. The Lightning get home ice, and only trail Boston as the top scoring team in the NHL so far this season.
- Dante Fabbro NSH ($2500-DK, $3500-FD) gets almost 20 minutes of ice time on average, and has an assist in each of his last two games. I really like Nashville’s chances to fill the score sheet tonight versus Malcolm Subban. He is on the road, has a poor .883 save%, and gives up 3.16 goals per game.
Also consider: Brady Skjei NYR ($3400-DK, $4400-FD)
Goaltenders:
- Juuse Saros NSH ($7600-DK, $7400-FD) gets a home match up with a reeling Vegas team that has lost three straight. The Golden Knights are also without their top netminder-Marc-Andre Fleury. The Preds offense has been giving good goal support lately as they just swept St. Louis in a home-and-home series.
- Joonas Korpisalo CLS ($7700-both sites) has a price that just hasn’t adjusted to his production. Korpisao has won five of his last six starts, including a 25-save shutout over Ottawa two nights ago. Not only is this a great home match up, but the Flyers have only scored over two goals twice in their last seven games.
