Players to target: Gabriel Landeskog, Nathan MacKinnon, and Mikko Rantanen
Many will be on the San Jose Sharks side of this matchup, but the Colorado Avalanche's top line will be a low-owned, high-upside option for tournaments. They've been great all season, as evidenced by their 29.9 Scoring Chances For per 60 minutes and 11 High-Danger Chances For per 60 minutes.
They will see the most time against the Joe Thornton line, who has surprisingly allowed 11.4 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes. The power-play correlation is as good as it can get for this line, as they all play on the top unit. If they're going to be overlooked on this big slate, it makes sense to get some exposure to them.
