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?

Nashville Predators

Matchup to avoid: Filip Forsberg, Ryan Johansen, and Viktor Arvidsson

Similar to the first two lines in the article, this is a line that we (in general) don't want to mess with. They had an overall 59.8 Corsi For percentage last year to go along with 42.8 Corsi Against per 60 minutes.

It's hard to score points in DFS if your line has a matchup in which their shots are going to be limited, and that's exactly what Ryan Johansen and company have shown they can do.
