3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 3/29/18
The Oilers' top line is in a prime time spot on Thursday night. Who else should you stack in NHL DFS?

Edmonton Oilers

Players to target: Connor McDavid, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, and Ty Rattie

The Edmonton Oilers' top line will get a good matchup against the Vancouver Canucks, who allow 3.41 goals per game with a home penalty kill of 76%. Vancouver is 21st at home in shots allowed at 32.6 per game, and they have an expected shooting percentage allowed of 10% when the Bo Horvat line is on the ice. The only concern may be pace. Vancouver plays at the fifth-slowest pace in the league over the entire season but is middle of the pack over the last month.

This line should match up well against the Horvat line, which has yielded nearly 36 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes and almost 11 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes in the past month. McDavid historically has averaged more than a real-world point per game against Vancouver, and he could continue that trend tonight.

Finally, Edmonton's top line is one of the hottest in the league over the past several days, producing a total of 22 real-world points in their last five games.
