Players to target: Rick Nash, Kevin Hayes, and Mats Zuccarello
This line has 9 combined points in their last two games and could add to that total tonight even in a tough matchup on the road in Columbus. They aren't a high-volume shooting trio by any means, but they have 2.8 expected Goals For per 60 minutes, so they are getting good chances at even-strength.
Zuccarello and Nash will both play on the power play, making Brady Skjei or Kevin Shattenkirk great options to complete a four-man stack. This projects to be the higher scoring game of the two on the slate, so why not take a chance for a line that has been clicking and a team that has the third-ranked power play in the NHL?
