Blue Line Special: Mikhail Sergachev 2+ Points (+450 FanDuel)

Yes! Finally! Our first multi-game slate means our first opportunity to attack the Chicago Blackhawks with a defenseman. Not only does our model love the Utah Hockey Club tonight, but it particularly loves Sergachev on his new team against the second-worst defensive team in the NHL. The Blackhawks allowed opposing blue-liners to be a +193 against them last season. Additionally, Sergachev has had multi-point efforts in four of his last seven appearances versus Chicago. For our first Blue Line Special, let’s go big and put a half unit on him doing it again.

If you have any questions or see a late injury or line change, don’t hesitate to message me @thewonkypenguin on Twitter, and I’ll make sure to update the post/projections accordingly. NHL Player Props is often an overlooked market, but it can be extremely profitable on a daily basis. Good luck!
