5 Matchups to Avoid in NHL DFS

Mikael Backlund and the Calgary Flames second line was great at limiting shots and scoring chances last year. What other matchups should we avoid in NHL DFS?

There are a few lines that we want to avoid in NHL DFS in terms of stacking against them. While anything can happen in hockey, it's usually a suboptimal play to roster a lot of players against a great 5-on-5 possession line. We can identify these great possession lines using stats from corsica.hockey, like Corsi For percentage, expected Goals Against, and many more.
