Alex Stalock Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

If you're looking to differentiate your lineup from the masses that will likely be rostering Schneider or Smith, consider taking Alex Stalock, who will get the nod in place of starter Devan Dubnyk tonight. With a 4-2-1 record which includes a solid .927 SV% in seven games at home, Stalock has the luxury of playing on one of the league's best defensive teams as Minnesota allows the fewest scoring chances on home ice this season. In what projects to be a tight, physical game with few goals exchanged between both teams, Stalock has the potential to carry you to the top of a GPP with the plethora of low percentage shots he'll likely face tonight.

With the Wild playing last night and Devan Dubnyk drawing in, look for Stalock to be back between the pipes in the second night of the back-to-back. He draws the easier matchup with the Canucks in town, as Vancouver remains a below average offense in virtually all offensive metrics besides Boeser/60. Do not let the fact Minnesota is playing a second consecutive night deter you as it is typically overrated as to how much it impacts skaters and Stalock did not play yesterday. The Wild have the third lowest high-danger shot attempts allowed rate at 5v5 and they do not allow a volume of overall chances, culminating in the third lowest expected goals allowed rate at 5v5. Stalock has been a steadfast backup as evident by his .914 all-situation save percentage, so he should be able to handle the Canucks and their low volume, low quality offense.

If you're looking to differentiate your lineup from the masses that will likely be rostering Hellebuyck or Grubauer, consider taking Alex Stalock, who will get the nod in place of starter Devan Dubnyk tonight. With a 4-2 record which includes a solid .933 SV% in six games at home, Stalock has the luxury of playing on one of the league's best defensive teams as Minnesota allows among the fewest scoring chances per game on home ice this season. In what projects to be a tight, physical game with few goals exchanged between both teams, Stalock has the potential to carry you to the top of a GPP with the plethora of low percentage shots he'll likely face tonight.

If you're looking for value at goalie tonight, consider taking Alex Stalock, who will get the nod in place of the injured Devan Dubnyk. A matchup against a potent Maple Leafs team may seem risky, but Toronto's offense has struggled in the absence of Auston Matthews; entering tonight's game averaging just 1.8 goals per game over their last 5 contests. Despite allowing 31 shots on goal per game this season, Minnesota has allowed the fewest scoring chances on home ice, making Stalock a sneaky option to target at a lower than expected ownership percentage.

If you're looking to differentiate your lineup from the masses that will likely be rostering Lundqvist or Howard, consider taking Alex Stalock, who will get the nod in place of starter Devan Dubnyk tonight.
