Florida Panthers

Players to target: Jussi Jokinen, Vincent Trocheck, Reilly Smith, and Michael Matheson

In a matchup against the Arizona Coyotes, the Florida Panthers second line featuring Trocheck is in a great spot. Trocheck will center Smith and Jokinen in a likely matchup with the Coyotes' top line of Max Domi, Christian Dvorak, and Radim Vrbata. Dvorak's line is brutal defensively, allowing 67.2 Corsi Against per 60 minutes, a 44 Corsi For percentage, and 12.1 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes.

On the other hand, Trocheck's line has been great all year, and it is reflected in their possession stats (62.2 Corsi For per 60 minutes, 54.9 Corsi For percentage). Not only should they generate a lot of shots at even-strength, but they will all play on the second power-play unit.

With Aaron Ekblad (neck) out, look for Matheson ($3,200 on FanDuel) to quarterback the second power-play unit. This line is cheap, has a ton of correlated upside, and allows you to get in another top stack on the night, making them a great tournament option.
