Three Stars of the Night

These are our three favorites on the slate tonight, regardless of price:

  • Mikael Granlund – W – MIN ($5800 DK/$6700 FD) Over 4 shots on goal on average over the last 5 games and a great matchup against Buffalo at home.

  • Nathan MacKinnon – C –COL ($6400 DK/$6700 FD) MacKinnon has been killing it at home and Bobrovsky hasn’t been great over the past month with a .898 save percentage.

  • Erik Johnson – D – COL ($5400 DK/$4700 FD) With Barrie out, Johnson has had to step up and has been averaging over 25 minutes with 4 shots on net and over 2 blocked shots a game over the last 5 games.
