Winnipeg Jets DFS SPIN
Kyle Connor scored a goal on five shots, went plus-2, added two hits and blocked three shots in Tuesday’s 5-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 1. Connor broke a 0-0 tie with a goal just 1:24 into the second period. The 26-year-old had four goals and three assists over the last 10 games of the regular season, but he’s capable of producing at a better rate. He had 32 tallies and 49 helpers in 82 contests, narrowly missing his third campaign with a point-per-game pace.
Vegas Golden Knights DFS SPIN
William Karlsson scored a goal on two shots and added five hits in Tuesday’s 5-1 loss to the Jets in Game 1. Karlsson got the Golden Knights on the board at 15:49 of the second period, but that was it for their offense. The center enjoyed a productive 2022-23 with 53 points in 82 regular-season games, though he was limited to a goal and seven assists over the last 12 contests to close out the campaign. The 30-year-old should remain on the second line at even strength and receive playing time in all situations.
