Anaheim Ducks DFS Spin
Anthony Stolarz allowed five goals on 39 shots in Wednesday’s 6-5 win over the Vegas Golden Knights. Stolarz got roughed up on Wednesday however the team in front of him provided enough offence to counter-act his mediocre performance. Reilly Smith scored a late goal that soured his stats even further however he still managed to pick up the victory. Stolarz is a risky play for fantasy players however with the team in front of him playing at a high level, he can be streamed if managers are in a pinch. He owns a 3-2-1 record with a 2.82 goals-against average and .919 save percentage.
