3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 1/16/18
Vegas Golden Knights
Players to target: Reilly Smith, William Karlsson, and Jon Audy-Marchessault
The Vegas Golden Knights are on the road against the banged-up Nashville Predators, who will be without Filip Forsberg and likely sans Viktor Arvidsson, too. Ryan Johansen will see a lot of time against this line for the Knights, and he was struggling with Arvidsson ever since Forsberg got injured, posting 31.6 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes and 13.3 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes.
The Karlsson line has some of the very best possession numbers this season, tallying up a 58.4 Corsi For Percentage, 35 Scoring Chances For per 60 minutes, and 13.3 High-Danger Chances For per 60 minutes. They are all on the top power-play unit, as well, and Nashville has been short-handed the most times in the NHL this season. You'll have to pay a top-tier price for them on FanDuel, but they are an elite line in a good road matchup that may go under-owned.
