3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for the Two-Day 10/16/17 and 10/17/17 Slate
Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov get a solid matchup against the Red Wings. Who else should you look to stack for the NHL's two-day DFS slate?

Toronto Maple Leafs

Players to target: James van Riemsdyk, Tyler Bozak, and Mitchell Marner

We usually want to target this line at home when the Maple Leafs get to dictate matchups, but they may see a favorable one here on the road against the Washington Capitals. With the Nicklas Backstrom line likely facing off against Auston Matthews, the Leafs' second line should see a lot of Alex Ovechkin's line, which owns only a 44.6 Corsi For percentage and 3.00 expected Goals Against per 60 minutes.

The Bozak line has been solid again to start the season, with a 57.1 Corsi For percentage, 53.7 Corsi For per 60 minutes, and 3.00 expected Goals For per 60 minutes. This line also has great correlation -- they all play on the power play together and Washington has struggled on the penalty kill, which is evidenced by their 76.9 PK percentage.

Give the Toronto 2's a chance on the road, as they should see low ownership based on some of the other options available.
