3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 4/6/17
Vladimir Tarasenko's line is in a great spot tonight on the road against the Panthers. Who else should you stack in NHL DFS tournaments?

St. Louis Blues

Players to target: Jaden Schwartz, Alex Steen, and Vladimir Tarasenko

The St. Louis Blues get a matchup on Thursday against the Florida Panthers, who have struggled all year. The Panthers have switched up their lines a little bit, and the new projected matchups look appealing for the Blues' top line.

We should see the Nick Bjugstad line go up against Tarasenko's group, which means a lot of shots for St. Louis. When Bjugstad is paired with Reilly Smith and Jussi Jokinen, he is allowing 76.6 Corsi Against per 60 minutes and a whopping 14.5 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes.

In contrast, the Blues' top line has been a great in possession. Schwartz, Steen, and Tarasenko are averaging 68.6 Corsi For per 60 minutes, 10.5 Scoring Chances For per 60 minutes, and a 58.7 Corsi For percentage. The Panthers have one of the best penalty kills, but all the players listed above play on the top unit, and it is rare to see this much firepower on the power play when you add in Alex Pietrangelo.

Look for the Blues to go overlooked in tournaments on the road.
