Dallas Stars DFS SPIN
Roope Hintz notched a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Monday’s 4-1 win over the Jets. Hintz set up a Miro Heiskanen insurance tally in the third period. Through three contests, Hintz has two goals and three assists, with his helper Monday going as his first power-play point of the year. The 25-year-old center has added five shots on net and a plus-4 rating while playing well in his usual top-line role.
Toronto Maple Leafs DFS SPIN
John Tavares leads the Maple Leafs in scoring with five points, including four assists, in five games. He has points in all four games the team has played this season. Number 91 has gotten off to a hot start this season. His assist Monday against the Coyotes made him the fifth-highest scorer in the NHL since he joined the league. It was also his 900th point, which makes him the 12th active player list to hit that milestone. The milestones will likely continue for Tavares — he’s eight goals shy of 400 (392) and 47 games from the 1,000 mark on his career.
