Today, we’re showcasing our new Lineup Optimizer tool for tonight’s single-game slate featuring the Rangers and Oilers. Even though single-game competitions offer less variety of lineup choices, there are a handful of high-upside options worth considering at their current pricing with such talented rosters on both sides. See for yourself how the tool synthesizes value to create an optimal lineup for tonight’s matchup:

The Optimizer zeroes in on the highest-possible upside plays for a given slate, so it’s no surprise to see reigning Hart Trophy winner Connor McDavid in tonight’s optimal lineup. The tool excels in finding reasonably-priced player options that can compliment points-scoring foundation studs like McDavid. Evan Bouchard and Ryan Strome, two players having fantastic seasons, are high-upside value picks. Both have greatly boosted their offensive outputs and helped their teams to wins along the way. Bouchard in particular has developed a consistent scoring touch, so he’s an excellent play at his current pricing in the 1.5x boosted superstar spot.
