Vegas Golden Knights DFS SPIN
Ivan Barbashev notched an assist and two hits in Saturday’s 4-1 win over the Wild. Barbashev’s point streak is up to five games (one goal, four assists). He set up Brett Howden’s second-period tally, which gave the Golden Knights a 3-1 lead. Overall, Barbashev has 42 points, 120 shots on net, 172 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 76 contests between St. Louis and Vegas. He’s looked much more effective on the latter’s top line than he did in a middle-six role with the former.
Minnesota Wild DFS SPIN
Joel Eriksson Ek logged an assist, four shots on goal, four hits and two PIM in Saturday’s 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights. Eriksson Ek has served as a playmaker to Matthew Boldy’s finisher over the last few weeks. In his last nine contests, Eriksson Ek has racked up a goal and 10 helpers. The 26-year-old center secured the first 60-point campaign of his career Saturday — he’s at 23 goals, 37 helpers, 244 shots on net, 117 hits, 40 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 76 appearances.
