NHL DFS: 3-21-24

It’s Thursday and that means a massive 11-game Main Slate. There is a lot tp digest on this slate, as we are heading into the last few weeks of the regular season. For my money, we are going to focus on Vancouver, Tampa Bay, Edmonton, and Carolina. All bt Tampa are at home, but they draw the lowly San Jose Sharks.

Vancouver with a whopping 4.1 implied goal total leads the way and will be the foundation of my builds for tonight. If you can afford them, Edmonton (3.8) is home against Buffalo. 

The basic strategy I am taking tonight is to play Power Play units for the top teams and fill in from there. With so many games, the best chance of winning big is a multi-goal game from top players and this is the easiest to get exposure.

Good luck and join me in Discord!

Titans hope to manage Tony Pollard better in 2025
OC talks importance of mixing in other backs Titans OC Nick Holz: Feels like RB Tony Pollard is in a good place heading into the season, but we'll have to get other backs in the mix, whether it's Julius Chestnut or Kalel Mullings. Team doesn't want to overload Pollard and wear him down. (TennesseeTitans.com - Jim Wyatt) FF Today's Take: Forgive fantasy managers for being skeptical after Tennessee said similar things last year, only to ask him to handle 301 touches across 16 relatively meaningless games. At least until Tyjae Spears (ankle) is ready to come off IR, Pollard's handcuff will likely be Mullings since the team rarely used Chestnut in a similar spot last year. Mullings is probably worth a stash in 14-team leagues, but he will likely remain off the radar in 12-teamers.

Jaguars listed Travis Hunter as a starting wide receiver and backup cornerback on their Week 1 depth chart.
The Jaguars had initially listed Hunter as a starting wide receiver and backup cornerback at the beginning of preseason and continue to do so ahead of Week 1. Though not much stock should go into these early depth charts, camp usage indicates Hunter will be primarily an offensive player, with secondary usage on defense. Head coach Liam Coen said the Jaguars are evaluating Hunter's Week 1 usage due to missed time for an upper body injury. The rookie No. 2 overall pick is still slated for versatility, but fantasy managers can expect to get his offensive production at the WR3 level to start with.
