3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 2/17/17
Vincent Trocheck's line is in a nice spot against the Ducks. Who else should you look to target in your NHL DFS contests?

Florida Panthers

Players to target: Jussi Jokinen, Vincent Trocheck, Reilly Smith, and Aaron Ekblad

The Florida Panthers will be up against the Anaheim Ducks on the road, which is usually not a desirable spot. However, this line should have a favorable matchup against Ryan Getzlaf's line. It has been a tough season for Getzlaf possession-wise. He has posted an individual Corsi For Percentage of only 49.1, down from 55.1 last season.

This Panthers line has been their best offensive line lately, accounting for 13 points in their last three games. The advanced numbers affirm their offensive dominance as well -- 62.7 Corsi For per 60 minutes and a 54.8 Corsi For Percentage.

The second line will also transfer over to the second power play unit in five-on-four situations with Aaron Ekblad. They should have increased chances tonight, as the Ducks are tied for the fourth-most penalties taken in the league.

While this game might not feature a ton of goals like the other two games, the second line for Florida will mostly avoid shutdown center Ryan Kesler, giving them a better chance at a solid offensive performance.
