Players to target: Tanner Pearson, Adrian Kempe, and Tyler Toffoli
As DFS players, we should be rooting for Kempe to take Nick Shore's spot as the second-line center, as he did midway through the Los Angeles Kings' last game. If he does, we're looking at a very solid DFS stack against the New York Rangers. With Kempe on their line, Pearson and Toffol have posted a 60.5 Corsi For per 60 minutes and 2.9 Expected Goals For per 60 minutes.
They will likely see the Rangers' top line, which has struggled in the absence of Mika Zibanejad, posting a 39.8 Corsi For Percentage and 69.0 Corsi Against per 60 minutes. Even if Kempe isn't playing with Pearson and Toffoli at even-strength, they will all team up on the second power play unit. Give them a look in GPPs in this road matchup against a poor defensive team.
