3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 3/27/18
Connor McDavid and the Oilers' top line is in a great spot on Tuesday night. Who else should you stack in NHL DFS?

Nashville Predators

Players to target: Ryan Johansen, Filip Forsberg, and Viktor Arvidsson

The Nashville Predators' first line will get a solid matchup against the Minnesota Wild, who have been burned in their last several meetings against the Preds in Nashville (allowing over 3.5 goals per game there). Overall, Minnesota has yielded 3.44 goals per night on the road and has just a 77.5% penalty kill away from home. It's safe to say the Johansen line is rolling as they have combined for eight real-world points in the last week.

The Predators are one of the more dominant teams in the league on home ice, averaging 3.35 goals per game in the split, which includes Arvidsson's 1.2 points per contest at home since January 1st. The Mikko Koivu line does yield 34 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes and roughly 12 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes on the road. Nashville has lost three games in a row, and there is two schools of thought -- either this is a get-well game or this could be a dicey contest versus a possible playoff opponent.

Lastly, it is also "Forsberg Tuesday." In 18 Tuesday games this season, Forsberg has recorded a real-world point in 15 of them. He also averages around 1.2 real-life points per game at home on Tuesdays.
