3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 2/14/17
Tyler Bozak and his linemates -- James Van Riemsdyk and Mitch Marner -- have big upside in what should be a high-paced matchup against the Islanders. Who else should you stack tonight in NHL DFS?

Toronto Maple Leafs

Players to target: James van Riemsdyk, Tyler Bozak, and Mitchell Marner

The top three lines are in play for the Toronto Maple Leafs as this should be one of the highest-scoring games on the slate. However, the second line has the best correlation because they all play together on the second power-play unit. This matchup against the Islanders just 8 days ago turned into a 6-5 game, and there's reason to believe we will see a lot of goals in this one, as well, as it boasts a nice 5.5-goal over/under.

Van Riemsdyk, Bozak, and Marner have been making DFS players money all year, posting 66.3 Corsi For per 60 minutes and 10.7 Scoring Chances for per 60 minutes. They struggled in the road meeting against the Islanders last week, but at home, they should get matchups against the Islanders' second and third lines. Brock Nelson's line is allowing 60 Corsi Against, and Alan Quine's line is giving up 65 Corsi Against.

With a matchup like this, the Leafs' second line is in position for a lot of shots and scoring chances. They won't come at a discount, but the upside here makes the steep prices worth it.
