NHL DFS: 2/27/23

Only 5 games on the Monday before the trade deadline. Make sure you double-check all your lineups before lock. The one lopsided game tonight is Vancouver at Dallas. The Stars should handle this fairly easily and put some goals up. The other 4 games are evenly matched. The highest implied total is Detroit at Ottawa. Detroit is playing well and fighting for a playoff spot, so I like them to win this game. The late game is a battle of the cellar with Chicago at Anaheim. Patrick Kane did not make the trip because of his pending trade to the Rangers, so I like the Ducks.

The Eagles drafted Mukuba in the second round this year. He was competing with Sydney Brown for one of the starting safety roles when he suffered a shoulder injury in late July. He later picked up a groin injury upon returning. Mukuba is likely slated for a backup role early in the year, but his draft capital should get him more opportunities to take over as a starter as the year progresses.
