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.

Betting
BOS/NYI – Over 5
VAN +118

Steelers NFL Draft grades 2024: Pittsburgh takes WR Roman Wilson after picking two OL; full list of picks
All the Steelers picks and draft news in one place
(Apr 26 -- CBS Sports)

Roman Wilson to Pittsburgh
The Steelers drafted Michigan WR Roman Wilson in Round 3 of the NFL Draft. It took Wilson until his fourth season to lead Michigan in receptions or receiving yards. But his 2023 campaign was impressive. Wilson tallied a 48-789-12 receiving line, accounting for 25.1% of the team s receiving yards and half of the receiving TDs. Wilson caught 71.6% of his targets on a 13.9-yard average target depth. That led to a huge 11.8 yards per target. Wilson ranked 29th in yards per route and 22nd in Pro Football Focus receiving grade among 286 qualifying WRs. The 5 11, 185-pounder played 65% of his snaps in the slot last year and figures to primarily stick inside as a pro. But don t mistake him for just a short-range target. Wilson regularly won deep at Michigan last year and blazed a 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the Combine. He also has one of the most reliable pairs of hands in this year s WR class, dropping only one of 50 catchable targets last season, per PFF. The Steelers lost 136 targets via trade/free agency. Wilson should handle a chunk of those alongside George Pickens. While QB play is a question mark for 2024, the Michigan product is firmly in play as a late-round stash.

MarShawn Lloyd finds low upside spot
The Packers drafted USC RB MarShawn Lloyd in Round 3 of the NFL Draft. Lloyd tore his left ACL in fall camp of his freshman season at South Carolina in 2020 and carried just 64 times in 2021. He emerged as the backfield leader in 2022, tallying 111 carries for 573 yards and nine TDs. Lloyd then headed west to USC and turned in a career year. Although he shared the backfield with fifth-year senior Austin Jones, Lloyd ripped off 820 yards and nine TDs on a huge 7.1 yards per carry. He took 15.7% of his carries for 15+ yards the best rate among this year s top-25 RB prospects. And he ranked third in Pro Football Focus Elusive Rating among all 157 FBS RBs with 100+ carries. Lloyd confirmed that dynamism by earning a strong 8.62 Relative Athletic Score at the Combine, highlighted by a 4.46-second 40 time at 5 9 and 220 pounds. Lloyd is relatively unproven as a pass catcher and comes with durability concerns after also missing time with a thigh injury and broken left arm dating back to high school. Unfortunately, he landed on a Packers team with Josh Jacobs under contract through the 2027 season. While Lloyd should eventually work ahead of A.J. Dillon, the rookie is off the redraft radar.
