Players to target: Evgeny Kuznetsov, Justin Williams, and Matt Niskanen

We have seen Kuznetsov's line explode many times during the season, and in a matchup tonight against the Philadelphia Flyers, this could be another one of those instances. The Flyers are struggling mightily, losing five out of their last seven games. Their goaltending has been inconsistent, and either Michal Neuvirth or Steve Mason should get peppered with shots against one of the best teams in the league in the Washington Capitals.

Kuznetsov, Williams, and Marcus Johansson have been the best possession line for the Caps with 55 Corsi For per 60 minutes, a 54.3 Corsi For Percentage, and a 60.7 Scoring Chances For Percentage. They will likely see a lot of Claude Giroux and the top line for the Flyers, who are allowing 65.6 Corsi Against per 60 minutes and 11 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes.

While Marcus Johansson (top power-play unit with Alex Ovechkin) makes for a good play, the power-play correlation of Kuznetsov and Williams with Niskanen on the second unit will likely be lower owned than a full second-line Caps stack.
