Well, Degens. March Madness isn’t just about basketball because Saturday night, we knocked in a last-second NHL banger! It took a Victor Hedman assist with 30 seconds left in regulation, but our three-for-three got there. After that cash, Standard option Underdog players are now up over 7x profit this week. And, our Insured option tailers are up just about 6x profits. In the words of Larry David, that is “pretty, pretty, pretty good.” Sunday offers up a loaded 10-game NHL slate, and the dice are still hot. So, let’s give them a roll and try to go for a second consecutive banger. Here are my three best NHL Underdog Fantasy Picks for March 24.
The Quick Pick: Daily NHL Underdog Fantasy Pick ’em Picks for March 24
Mikko Rantanen Higher Than 0.5 Assists
The Colorado Avalanche are cooking with gas in March and are on an eight-game win streak. The race is tight, but they could still be in the running for a President’s Trophy. Winger Mikko Rantanen has been on a heater and comes in with 19 points in his last nine games. Of those 19 points, 11 have come by way of the assist. Sunday’s matinee opponent are the Pittsburgh Penguins, and Mikko’s going to get looks. Let’s find an apple in Colorado for our first NHL Underdog entry on Sunday. We’re taking Mikko Rantanen to go Higher Than 0.5 Assists against the Penguins.
Sebastian Aho Higher Than 0.5 Points
The Carolina Hurricanes have won five of their last six and come into Sunday after a brutal 7-6 shootout loss. Sebastian Aho is skating with fire on his blades recently, with a five-game point streak. He also netted a hat trick his last time out and has six assists in his last five games. On Sunday, Aho and the Canes will take on the Toronto Maple Leafs. In two games against them this season, Aho has logged two three-point nights. This one should be a lay-up in this spot. So, let’s smash Sebastian Aho Higher Than 0.5 Points on Sunday against Toronto.
Jamie Benn Higher Than 0.5 Points
The Dallas Stars remain consistent in putting in excellent efforts on a nightly basis. On Sunday, they will skate into Arizona and look for their fourth straight win. Veteran winger Jamie Benn has surged lately with a five-game point streak. And, if not for a blip on the radar against the Kings, then Benn would be up to a 10-game point streak. In two previous games against the Desert Dogs this season, Benn has netted one goal. This spot feels soft enough that we can trust Jamie to make it a six-game point streak. So, let’s go ahead and take Jamie Benn Higher Than 0.5 Points and knock this second consecutive banger in!
