3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 3/30/18
New York Rangers
Players to target: Mika Zibanejad, Chris Kreider, and Jesper Fast
The New York Rangers' first line will get a solid matchup against the Tampa Bay Lightning, who have been burned in their last several meetings against the Panthers. Overall, Tampa has allowed 3.48 goals per night on the road since February 1st and has just a 75.8% penalty kill on the season. It's safe to say the Zibanejad line is rolling as they have combined for 10 real-world points in the last week alone.
The Tampa Bay bottom six does yield 35.4 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes and roughly 14 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes on the road. The Lightning took a loss last night, and the likelihood of a high-scoring game is elevated here. The last two meetings between these two teams produced 15 combined goals and an average of nearly 70 shots.
Does the pressure get to Tampa, though? Do they remember they are playing the Rangers? There are as many as four stacks you could potentially use from this game alone. The Kreider line just represents the best matchup.
