NHL
3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 3/1/16
The St. Louis Blues power play is in for a big night on Tuesday. What other stacks should you look to target?

New York Islanders

Players to Stack: Frans Nielsen, Kyle Okposo

FanDuel Price: $12,300
DraftKings Price: $11,400

Nielsen and Okposo play together on the Islanders' second line, but they're also on the top Power Play line and are second and fourth on the team in shots on goal.

They're up against a Canucks team tonight that is giving up above league-average fantasy points to forwards at all three positions. They're also allowing the 10th most goals against and 12th highest Corsi Against per game. Vancouver's confirmed starter between the pipes tonight is Jacob Markstrom, who has given up five goals in each of his last two games and has a .917 Save Percentage and 2.57 Goals Against Average on the year.

The Islanders are one of the stronger offensive teams in the league, ranking ninth in Corsi For per game, eighth in goals for per game and 10th in Power Play percentage, and Okposo and Nielsen play big roles in the offense.

As I mentioned, they're among the team leaders in shots on goal, and they play especially well on the Power Play, where Okposo has a 7.9 and Nielsen has a 7.4 on-ice goals for per 60 minutes and Okposo sports 4.3 relative Corsi For percentage while Nielsen has a 4.2.
