Tampa Bay Lightning DFS SPIN
Steven Stamkos scored a goal with an assist in Friday’s 8-2 road win against the Hurricanes. Stamkos got the Lightning on the board in the second period with a power-play marker. He added a secondary assist on the man advantage on the final goal of the evening. The Tampa Bay captain finished with three shots on goal, one hit and won six of 11 faceoffs in 18:05 of ice time. He has scored a goal in four straight games, racking up seven points during the span.
Colorado Avalanche DFS SPIN
Cale Makar notched an assist and blocked three shots in Saturday’s 3-1 win over the Flames. Makar’s eight-game point streak ended Friday in Minnesota, but he was able to pick up his league-leading 25th helper in Saturday’s outing. He helped out on a Nathan MacKinnon tally in the second period. Makar is up to 30 points — one of five players in the league at that threshold — and he’s added 48 shots on net, 36 blocked shots and a plus-18 rating over 20 appearances.
