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?

Boston Bruins

Matchup to Avoid: Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron, and David Pastrnak

This line had some of the best possession stats at home in 2016-17, posting a 66 Corsi For percentage, 35.9 Corsi Against per 60 minutes, and 1.7 expected Goals Against per 60 minutes.

The average DFS player probably knows this line has a ton of offensive firepower, but the numbers against them are just amazing. It's going to be tough to play even then the best offensive lines on the road against the Bruins' top unit if these three stick together.
