3 Daily Fantasy Hockey Stacks for 10/17/17

Edmonton Oilers

Players to target: Patrick Maroon, Connor McDavid, and Kailer Yamamoto

With Leon Draisaitl out for this game, rookie Kailer Yamamoto will play on the top line with McDavid and Maroon, an enviable place to be. In his first game playing on the top line with the Edmonton Oilers, Yamamoto notched 6 shots on goal and an assist. This line was truly dominant in that game, finishing with a 68.1 Corsi For percentage.

McDavid will always see some ownership, but the lack of name-brand talent on his line may keep this stack lower-owned than it should be tonight. Carolina allows over 10 High Danger Corsi Against per 60 minutes while Edmonton leads the NHL in that category. We may see people go elsewhere tonight on a big slate with many options, but fading McDavid's line is a very risky operation tonight.
