Florida Panthers

Players to target: Jussi Jokinen, Vincent Trocheck, and Reilly Smith

After the huge outing from the Philadelphia Flyers' top line on Tuesday night, most will be looking to go right back to that line in DFS tonight. However, the better tournament option here is the Florida Panthers' second line of Jokinen, Trocheck, and Smith. They are the team's best possession line and should face the Flyers' top line for about 50% of their ice time.

Like the Bozak line, the Flyers' top line featuring Claude Giroux and Wayne Simmonds is talented offensively, but they allow more than their fair share of shots and scoring chances to opposing teams (64.8 Corsi Against per 60 minutes and 10.8 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes).

The Panthers' second line continues to improve in possession and are up to 64.2 Corsi For per 60 minutes and a 54.7 Corsi For Percentage. Trocheck should be able to continue his breakout season tonight with help from his linemates, who all skate together on the second power-play line, which is led by Aaron Ekblad. You won't have to break the bank on this line either, as they are only a collective $16,600 on FanDuel.
