NHL DFS: Playoffs 4/22/23

We start the weekend with Game 3 in New York, Tampa, Seattle, and Winnipeg. Please note for DK Classic, the Main Slate is 3 games starting at 7 pm. The Rangers have a 2 game lead, while the 3 other series are tied 1-1. I really think New York will sweep the Devils and I will be starting my lineups with NYR Stacks. Even though Toronto dominated game 2, they are traditionally terrible in Tampa. I am going to list the NYR power play as my preferred stack. This is expensive, but Adam Fox and Chris Kreider should be the start of all stacks. 

Teams to Target

New York Rangers
Tampa Bay Lightning

Favorite Stacks

NYR: Krieder – Fox – Zibanejad – Panarin – Kane
TB: Point – Kucherov – Sergachev
SEA: McCann – Beniers – Eberle

Value Stacks

NJ 3: Meier-Haula-Boqvist-Severson
NYR 3: Lafreniene-Chytil-Kakko-Miller

Goalies

Igor Shesterkin, NYR
Philipp Grubauer, SEA

Showdowns

New Jersey @ New York Rangers (-145)
O/U 6

The Rangers are dominating and I don’t see where the Devils can recover in New York.

CPT: Adam Fox
Flex: Kreider, Panarin
Flex: Timo Meier

Toronto @ Tampa Bay (EVEN)
O/U 6.5

Toronto is pretty bad in Tampa, but may keep it close. 

CPT: Brayden Point
Flex: Kucherov, Hagel
Flex: Tavares, Marner

Vegas @ Winnepeg (-120)
O/U 5.5

Vegas has not played incredibly well so far and Winnipeg is great at home.  Look for the Jets to take down this afternoon game.

CPT: Kyle Connor
Flex: Dubois, Scheifele, Morissey
Flex: William Karlsson

Colorado (-155) @ Seattle
O/U 6

Seattle is playing tough and they are better at home. This is the toughest game today to judge so I will be playing multiple lineups to cover both sides. However, I do think Seattle has a slight advantage.

CPT: Jared McCann
Flex: Beniers, Eberle
Flex: Atturi Lehkonen
