Minnesota Wild DFS SPIN
Filip Gustavsson will guard the road goal Wednesday versus Dallas, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. Gustavsson has a record of 11-7-1 this season to go along with a 2.26 GAA and a .922 save percentage. He has won four of his past six outings, having allowed just 11 goals on 172 shots. The Stars rank ninth in the league this campaign with 3.35 goals per game.
Dallas Stars DFS SPIN
Radek Faksa provided an assist, two shots on goal and two hits in Monday’s 3-2 shootout win over the Ducks. Faksa set up a Nils Lundkvist tally in the first period. With three goals and a helper over his last seven games, this has been one of Faksa’s best stretches of the season. The 29-year-old defensive center is at 11 points, 50 shots on net, 61 hits, 49 blocked shots, a plus-5 rating and 27 PIM through 52 contests overall. Barring a more significant spike in offense, he doesn’t offer much for fantasy managers.
