NHL Puck Drop

By Brewery Mark

COVID Update:
The NHL has postponed all Carolina Hurricane games through Jan 23.
Many Washington Capitals players have been placed on the covid list including Alex Ovechkin.

NHL Puck Drop will be a quick list of my favorite players, line stacks and bets for single day NHL slates. This will be updated as news is released.

I mostly play cash games (Double-ups and 50/50). I use the stacks for GPPs, mostly single entry tournaments..

Players are typically in order of price on DK. Stacks are single team stacks. One strategy is to “run back” a player from the opposing team, if you think the game will be a shootout.

Betting is Moneyline unless otherwise noted.

Feel free to send me question on Twitter: @brewerymark @draught4upside

Initial Thoughts
Stack Montreal/Vancouver and Ottawa/Winnipeg.
St Louis should easily handle LA
You have to play Tyler Toffoli. He is too cheap for the massive production he is having right now. I dud game is coming but I will play him anyway.

Carey Price – MON

Shea Weber – MON
Mike Reilly – OTT
Justin Faulk – STL
Ben Chariot – MON

Centers

Steelers Have 1st-Round Grade On Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart
The Steelers have a first-round grade on Ole Miss quarterback Jaxson Dart, according to Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, though that does not mean they’ll prioritize the position over other needs in next week’s draft. Instead, Dulac writes, Pittsburgh will likely target a defensive lineman or even a running back with their first-round pick. […]

The Athletic's Mike DeFabo believes the Steelers won't draft Alabama QB Jalen Milroe if he's available at pick No. 21.
DeFabo notes in a recent article that Milroe "has generated a lot of buzz in Pittsburgh," and highlights comments made on The Herd with Colin Cowherd, who said an executive told him the Steelers "really like" Milroe. According to DeFabo, however, he's "hearing the exact opposite." The Steelers beat writer goes so far as to predict the team wouldn't take Milroe if he "is sitting there in the third round." The Steelers are in need of a quarterback, again, and the Aaron Rodgers saga doesn't appear to be getting resolved any time soon. Assuming there's a prospect they like in the draft, the Steelers feel like a near lock to take a shot on a signal-caller at some point, but DeFabo's bold prediction suggests Milroe is nowhere near the team's radar. We'll see how things play out in the coming days, with the draft just days away.
