With only five games on the NHL schedule for Saturday, March 21, the focus turns to the matchup between the St. Louis Blues and Vancouver Canucks. The Blues, led by center Robert Thomas, winger Dylan Holloway, and rookie winger Jimmy Snuggerud, are poised to take advantage of Vancouver's porous defense and goaltending.

Why it matters

The Canucks are one of the worst defensive teams in the NHL, ranking last in goals against average and penalty kill percentage. This presents an opportunity for the Blues' top offensive players to have a productive outing and provide valuable fantasy points for DraftKings lineups.

The details

The Blues' top line of Thomas, Holloway, and Snuggerud has been clicking lately, with Thomas recording 12 points this month and Holloway tallying seven goals and seven assists in his last 11 games. The rookie Snuggerud has also contributed 21 points in the last 17 games. Against a vulnerable Canucks defense, this line could have a big night.
