Offense:
Tyler Toffoli LA ($3900-DK, $4600-FD) now has 22 points in 25 games this season, with eight shots coming in his last two games. Toffoli is on the Kings’ top scoring line and 1st-unit power play, facing the Flyers’ mid-pack defense.

Kevin Stenlund CLS ($3200-DK, $3100-FD) just got elevated to the Jackets’ top scoring and 1st-unit PP lines with Jenner and Nyquist. I like him to hit the score sheet as Florida ranks 21st defensively against wingers.
Kailer Yamamoto EDM ($2500-DK, $3000-FD) minimum-priced punt that was just called up from the AHL. He racked up 16 points in 23 games down there, and will skate on the 2nd line with Draisaitl.
Also consider: Yanni Gourde TB ($3500-DK, $3700-FD)
Defense:
Ian Cole COL ($3700-both sites) has at least one point in four straight games and the Avalanche are the biggest favorite on the board tonight.
Brett Pesce CAR ($3800-DK, $3600-FD) has two points and taken eight shots in his last three games and gets home ice against the Canadians’ porous 29th ranked defense.
Also consider: Rasmus Anderson CGY ($3400-DK, $3600-FD)
Goaltenders:
Philipp Grubauer COL ($7600-both sites)
David Rittich CGY ($7800-DK, $7600-FD)
Enjoy the New Year’s Eve action on the ice!
