NHL Puck Drop 2/13

NHL Puck Drop
Saturday February 13, 2021 – 7pm Main Slate

NHL Puck Drop will be a quick list of my favorite players, line stacks and bets for single day NHL slates. This will be updated as news is released.

I mostly play cash games (Double-ups and 50/50). I use the stacks for GPPs, mostly single entry tournaments..

Players are typically in order of price on DK. Stacks are single team stacks. One strategy is to “run back” a player from the opposing team, if you think the game will be a shootout.

Betting is Moneyline unless otherwise noted.

A few thoughts
Man, I love this Boston/Islander game. The Isle have been coming on lately and Boston is struggling to get scoring from lines 2 and 3. I am going to be stacking NYI line 2 and BOS PP1. I expect this game to be a 4-3 thriller.
Everyone will be on Toronto/Montreal. Great for cash but I am fading in GPP. This will be a shootout with 2 strong offenses (and weak defenses) going H2H.
I will be playing a lot of Nashville against the Dead Things. Especially NSH Line 2.

Bucky Irving: Nets 80 all-purpose yards in loss

Mecole Hardman caught all three targets for 17 yards in the Chiefs' Week 9 win over the Buccaneers.
Hardman departed in the first quarter following a hard fall on the sidelines on a punt return, initially listed as questionable to return. He would start the second half with the team and eventually secure all three targets for a modest 17 yards. He also saw a red zone carry that was called back for offensive holding. Even so, Hardman's fantasy utility in an offense now with DeAndre Hopkins is fleeting, at best.

Justin Watson caught 3-of-4 targets for 43 yards in the Chiefs' Week 9 win over the Buccaneers.
Watson continues to play the most snaps at wide receiver for the Chiefs but took a backseat to both Travis Kelce and DeAndre Hopkins, the former of whom set a career-high with 14 receptions and the latter of whom scored twice in the overtime victory. Even so, Watson should continue to see elevated snap rates based on the currently available personnel on the roster, albeit still unlikely to return fantasy utility in the process.

Xavier Worthy failed to catch either of his two targets in the Chiefs' Week 9 win over the Buccaneers, losing 10 yards on two carries.
Worthy was far from emphasized against the Buccaneers after an early mistake cost the team seven points. Worthy appeared to score on the team's opening possession from 33 yards out but he was ultimately ruled out of bounds after failing to get both feet down in the field of play, something that appeared to come with some level of nonchalance. Instead of ensuring both feet were inbounds, Worthy caught the ball while backpedalling towards the left pylon, both heels clipping the white paint along the sideline. Head coach Andy Reid was clearly aggravated with the rookie wide receiver during his halftime interview as the team departed the field of play, something that could have influenced his usage in the second half. Cementing his fantasy dud was a failed end around in the third quarter, on which he lost 10 yards. Worthy's next opportunity to return fantasy utility comes in Week 10 against the stout Denver secondary.
