Andrew Ladd Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

If you're looking to differentiate your lineup without fading the Islanders in a great matchup, consider taking the second line which features rookie standout Mathew Barzal, Jordan Eberle, and Andrew Ladd. They draw a juicy matchup at home against a struggling Washington team that has allowed the most high danger scoring chances among road teams over their past 25 games. This bodes well for the second line of the Islanders, who have generated the most high danger scoring chances on home ice over their past 25 games, setting the stage for a monster performance in what should ultimately be the highest scoring game of the night.

In what has the makings of a shootout in Pittsburgh, the New York Islanders deserve plenty of GPP attention this evening. While their top line centered around John Tavares will likely receive most of the attention, the trio of Andrew Ladd, Matthew Barzal and Jordan Eberle have joined forces to create a very capable secondary scoring line. While Eberle and Barzal have seen significant price increases across the industry, Andrew Ladd can still be found at quite the bargain price-point. Ladd is a guy who already has six 20+ goal seasons on his NHL resume and continues to see a healthy dose of playing time with New York's second power-play unit. With this expected to be an up-and-down affair, and with the Pittsburgh Penguins being the most penalized team in the Eastern Conference, Ladd is a fine value option in all formats.
