New Jersey Devils

Players to target: Taylor Hall, Travis Zajac, and Kyle Palmieri

The Devils are in a similar matchup to that of the Oilers. They get the Colorado Avalanche tonight on home ice. Colorado, like the Coyotes, struggles in puck possession (45.5 Corsi For Percentage) and the penalty kill (78.2). The difference is that this trio will cost you much less on FanDuel and will presumably be lower-owned in tournaments. The Devils are a -210 favorite, which is one of the highest on the night, but most DFS players will likely look at the -265 Penguins and -235 Oilers, who are both perceived as better offenses.

This Devils' line is the only New Jersey line with above a 50 Corsi For Percentage (at 53.8), and they are getting a bunch of scoring chances (11.7 per 60 minutes). The Avalanche are last in the league at goals against per game at 3.4, so the Devils should be able to generate scoring chances. The Avs' top two lines are allowing 9 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes, and the second line is allowing 61.5 Corsi Against per 60 minutes.

Hall, Zajac, and Palmieri all play on the first power-play unit and should have multiple chances as the Avs have been short-handed the third-most times in the league. Hall and Palmieri are two great plays tonight, and a Zajac ($4,400) addition will get you exposure to assists -- if Hall and Palmieri can do the goal scoring -- with some salary relief.
