SLATE PREVIEW
We have 10 games on the DFS slate tonight with five games starting at 7 p.m. EDT. The Kings and the Golden Knights both played Sunday, and the Avalanche, Coyotes and Flyers play tomorrow.
All advanced statistics are courtesy of Natural Stat Trick.
GOALIES
Alexandar Georgiev, NYR vs. BUF ($8,600): Playing the Sabres provides a high floor and a low ceiling. The Sabres are last in the league with 2.03 goals per game, and they've won just six games. However, they rank 27th with 27.9 shots per contest, meaning Georgiev's upside is hampered a bit. It's worth the peace of mind if you can find some value plays elsewhere.
Alex Nedeljkovic, CAR at CLS ($8,100): It should be Nedeljkovic's turn in the blue paint again. The 25-year-old enters Monday's game ranked fourth in the league with a .926 save percentage, sitting behind Andrei Vasilevskiy, Marc-Andre Fleury and Philipp Grubauer. Good company. Meanwhile, the Blue Jackets' defense-focused scheme leaves them 27th over the last 10 games with 1.85 xGF/60 at even strength.
Connor Hellebuyck, WPG at VAN ($7,700): The Jets' defense has some holes in it, and Hellebuyck has had some tough outings as a result. But the Canucks' offense hasn't generated many chances in March. In fact, the Canucks rank 29th in the league with just 1.72 xGF/60 at even strength in March.
VALUE PLAYS/ONE-OFFS
Martin Necas, CAR at CLS ($4,900): Necas has contributed 10 points in the last 10 games, and now he's getting time on the top line because Teuvo Teravainen (upper body) is on injured reserve. Eight of his 21 points have been on the power play this season, and the Blue Jackets' putrid PK (74.2 percent) sets him up well Monday.
Jesse Puljujarvi, EDM at MON ($4,100): We often get priced out of Oilers stacks because of how inflated Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl's salaries are. However, Puljujarvi provides DFS players a piece of McDavid's line at a bargain. He does plenty right himself, and he's put up eight points and 38 shots over the past 18 contests.
Oliver Wahlstrom, NYI at PHI ($3,500): Over the last month, Wahlstrom has proven his first-round pedigree, compiling 12 points -- six on the power play -- over 15 games. He maintains a steady shot volume, too, and his knack for scoring with the man advantage should work in his favor against Philadelphia's 26th-ranked PK (74.2 percent).
LINE STACKS
Avalanche 
at Coyotes 
Nathan MacKinnon (C - $9,000), Mikko Rantanen (W - $8,000), Gabriel Landeskog (W - $6,900)
This is one of the priciest stacks you can get tonight, but winning a DFS tournament will be impossible if they hit their ceiling. This line is red-hot right now, too, contributing 11 goals and 16 assists across the past five games. They'll have a good opportunity to come through Monday. In the month of March, the Coyotes have allowed 2.64 xG/60 -- the second-most in the league.
Rangers 
vs. Sabres 
Ryan Strome (C - $5,900), Artemi Panarin (W - $7,600), Colin Blackwell (W - $3,000)
The Rangers predictably received an immediate boost when Panarin returned to the lineup, as it allowed them to distribute their firepower across the top nine. Panarin has put up seven points over five games since his return, while Strome and Blackwell have combined for eight. The Sabres are helpless at this point, too, so the upside is massive.
Wild 
vs. Ducks
Victor Rask (C - $2,800), Kirill Kaprizov (W - $6,000), Mats Zuccarello (W - $6,300)
Rask and Zuccarello are having career resurgences because of their newfound chemistry with Kaprizov. The trio has combined for nine goals over the past six games, and they've fired 50 shots on net in that stretch. The Wild will get the benefit of playing one of the worst defensive teams in the league, and it doesn't look like John Gibson (lower body) will be ready yet either.
DEFENSEMEN
Adam Fox, NYR vs. BUF ($5,200): Fox is on a three-game point streak with just one of those points coming with the man advantage. The 23-year-old has now recorded 18 points through 29 games, and he provides a steady floor in the form of shots and blocked shots. Quarterbacking PP1 with Strome and Panarin makes him a solid addition to the aforementioned Rangers stack.
Quinn Hughes, VAN vs. WPG ($4,600): I'm still high on Hellebuyck's prospects tonight, but I'm willing to hedge against him with Hughes' price point this low. The 21-year-old has recorded 28 points -- 14 on the power play -- through 35 games, and his ice time stays around the 23-minute mark. The risk-reward here is quite intriguing.
Rasmus Andersson, CGY at OTT ($4,100): The Senators are in a turbulent goaltending situation, and it looks like Filip Gustavsson -- who made his NHL debut last week -- will get the start. The Senators' defense won't provide the newcomer much support, as they have allowed 2.4 xG/60 in March -- the sixth-most in the league. That provides a solid opportunity for Andersson on the first defensive pairing and PP2.
Jake Bean, CAR at CLS ($2,800): Bean has recorded 10 points through 20 games, and half of those points were on the power play. He'll take aim at the Blue Jackets' 27th-ranked PK (73.3 percent) on Monday, so he comes at a bargain if you're targeting some of the more expensive pieces in this slate.
