New York Rangers DFS SPIN
Artemi Panarin scored a power-play goal Thursday in a 3-2 loss to Toronto. Panarin’s goal was a beauty. He wired a one-timer from the left circle off a spin-o-rama pass from Adam Fox. The Bread Man finished the season with 29 goals and 92 points. Panarin enters the postseason hot with eight points over six April contests.
New Jersey Devils DFS SPIN
Timo Meier (illness) was back on the ice for Monday’s practice, Amanda Stein of the Devils’ official site reports. As expected, Meier should be good to go for Game 1 against the Rangers on Tuesday after missing practice Saturday because of food poisoning. He produced nine goals, 14 points, 72 shots on net and 42 hits in 21 games with the Devils in 2022-23 after being acquired from San Jose on Feb. 26. Meier is projected to begin the postseason on New Jersey’s third line but still could see playing time on the top power-play unit.
