Well, well, well, degens. The Quick Pick’s Sunday NHL Underdog entry closed your week with a mini-bang after going two out of three. It is Monday, and that means three things: it’s a new week. It is President’s Day. And there are 10 games on the slate, with eight being in the daylight! So call your boss and tell them you’re not going to make it because you’ve got a daytime banger to build. And, if they ask what that is, just hang up the phone, trust me. Here are my three best NHL Underdog Fantasy Picks for February 19.
The Quick Pick: Daily NHL Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for February 19
David Pastrnak Higher Than 0.5 Assists
The Boston Bruins will be playing in a 1 PM matinee game against the battle-tested Dallas Stars. So when you need some heavy lifting done, you call on the veterans who’ve done it before. David Pastrnak has 34 goals and 45 assists this season and has tallied three assists in his last three games. The opportunities for the Bruins may be slightly fewer than usual with a good Stars defense. Therefore, let’s trust David Pastrnak to get in on the action and setup a goal for his club. Press the Higher Than 0.5 Assists for David Pastrnak against the Dallas Stars on Monday.
Patrick Kane Higher Than 0.5 Assists (1.2x Odds)
Ah, yes, good old Patrick Kane. I’ll put my personal beef aside on President’s Day and lean on the veteran winger in this spot. The Red Wings travel to Seattle and play at 3:30 PM EST. Kane is up to nine goals and 13 assists since signing with the Red Wings back in early December. He will also skate into Monday’s game, riding a four-game point streak. Included in that streak is a stretch of tallying an assist in each of those games. So, if you’re giving me extra sauce at 1.2x odds on a guy with a hot hand, I’ll gladly devour it. Go ahead and mash Patrick Kane Higher Than 0.5 Assists against the Seattle Kraken.
Martin Necas Higher Than 0.5 Points
Last but not least, our third NHL Underdog entry on President’s Day will be playing in one of the two 7 PM EST matchups. Carolina welcomes the Blackhawks to town, and we’re going to be going with centerman Martin Necas. He now has seven points across his last five games, and that puts him up to 38 points on the season. The Canes are stacking wins here in February, and when they win, Necas usually gets in on the action. Let’s lean on the man from the Czech Republic and take Martin Necas Higher Than 0.5 Points against Chicago.
