LSU vs. Clemson in the CFP National Championship game a sures us of one thing: The Tigers will be national champions. Beyond that, though, it’s a game with two star QBs, two great RBs, tons of talented WRs, and lots of points certainly waiting to be scored. That means that putting together a DraftKings Showdown lineup provides a ton of different DFS approaches to making picks for the final game of the college football season.The approach we’ve taken is to put almost all our chips in on LSU. Besides Clemson’s Travis Etienne, it’s the Joe Burrow and Co. show. Nasir Adderley Jersey Clemson will provide a stiffer test than Oklahoma did, but there should still be playing of aerial succe s for LSU.DIVISIONAL ROUND NFL DFS: | | DraftKings Showdown National Championship DFS Picks: LSU vs. ClemsonCaptain (1.5x price, 1.5x points): WR Ja’Marr Chase, LSU ($12,900)Chase was LSU’s best receiver during the regular season, but it was Justin Jefferson who got all the semifinal love with his four touchdown catches in the first half. We’ll take a shot that Chase steps back into his leading role at a much better value than Jefferson for the title game.FLEX: QB Joe Burrow, LSU ($12,800)What fun would it be to make this lineup with the Heisman Trophy winner and likely No. 1 pick in Justin Herbert Jersey the 2020 NFL Draft? That’s right — no fun. I’d have no problem paying down here to play Trevor Lawrence instead, but in a lineup I’m inclined to make LSU-heavy, might as well go for Burrow.SATURDAY NFL DFS LINEUPS: | FLEX: RB Travis Etienne, Austin Ekeler Jersey Clemson ($9,400)Etienne is our only Clemson representation. LSU had a solid defense this season, and it seems like if one team gets slowed down in this one, it will be Clemson. Etienne is still too talented and will see solid touch volume regardle s of the scoreline, so he’ll produce enough for playing him to be worth it.FLEX: WR Terrace Marshall Jr., LSU ($6,800)LSU’s third receiver occasionally pops for a big play or finds the end zone. With how much LSU will sling it around in this one, expect Marshall to get his fair share of targets, too.SUNDAY NFL DFS LINEUPS: | FLEX: WR/TE Thaddeus Mo s, LSU ($4,200)Mo s is listed as a WR on DraftKings but really fills the starting TE role for LSU. Randy Mo s’ kid caught a touchdown in the semifinal and has at least four catches in three of LSU’s past four games, so there’s a decent floor here.FLEX: K Cade York, LSU ($3,800)The only players you can feel good about this cheap in college DFS contests are the kickers, because at least you know they’ll play. With so much LSU offense here, we Isaiah Spiller Jersey ‘ll polish it off with York.
It turned out to be a good week for fans of NHL ownership drama, after all.
A few days after the Coyotes’ four-year me s was officially resolved, the New Jersey Devils’ situationfor sale but still owned by Jeff Vanderbeek, who [url=https://www.nhledgestore.com/tommy-wingels-jersey][b]Tommy Wingels Jersey[/b][/url] also owns $230 million in debtis squarely in the spotlight. On Thursday, the story, via Forbes, was that the NHL was prepared to seize control of the team nobody bought it by the start of the season. The footnote, though, was that at least two groups were highly interested.
One of them, according to Philadelphia radio host Howard Eskin [url=https://www.nhledgestore.com/tim-schaller-jersey][b]Tim Schaller Jersey[/b][/url] , is close to a deal.
Okey dokey. It’s worth noting that Eskin has been drastically wrong about two high-profile NHL scoops he’s gotten in the last yearone was that the season would be canceled because of the lockout. The other: Sidney Crosby wouldn’t play in 2013 because of concu sion-related i sues. Neither of those happened.
Eskin’s report is most largely relevant because of reports by Tom Gulitti of the Bergen Recordand Rich Chere of The Star-Ledger, who cover the Devils better than anyone. Gulitti [url=https://www.nhledgestore.com/david-pastrnak-jersey][b]David Pastrnak Jersey[/b][/url] wrote on Friday, citing a source close to the proce s, that the sale could be wrapped up “quickly.” From Chere: “(Officials) with close knowledge of current negotiations say the Devils could be sold within the next several days and almost certainly within the next two months.”
Neither specified that it was Harris’ group, though. The other most prominent bidder is led by Philadelphia lawyer Andrew Barroway, who has already helped Vanderbeek pay $30 million of bills, according to Chere.
Sodone deal. Quickly. Several days. The next two months. Barroway. Harris. Regardle s, it seems like the team will be sold, and soon.
Any deal for the Devils will keep the [url=https://www.nhledgestore.com/danton-heinen-jersey][b]Danton Heinen Jersey[/b][/url] team in Newark and include the operating rights to the Prudential Centerand Vanderbeek’s debt payments are due soon.
The Edmonton Oilers made a bad trade, then an OK one with an asterisk.
A bit after trading for Matt Hendricks, a fourth-liner [url=https://www.ramsmaster.com/Taylor_Rapp_Jersey.NFL][b]Taylor Rapp Jersey[/b][/url] with a bad contract , the Oilers acquired goalie Ben Scrivens from the Los Angeles Kings for a third-round draft pick. Scrivens replaces Devan Dubnyk, who headed to Nashville in the Hendricks trade.
Scrivens, like Dubnyk, is a pending free agent, but he’s probably an upgrade; Dubnyk was an average starter on a terrible team before this season, [url=https://www.ramsmaster.com/Robert_Woods_Jersey.NFL][b]Robert Woods Jersey[/b][/url] but Scrivens, 26, has a .917 career save percentage and should at least be a top-notch backup/1A option for the next few years. He joins Ilya Bryzgalov as Edmonton’s presumed goalie duo.
Still, the move really only works out for Edmonton if they can sign Scrivens, and they sold low on Dubnyk to acquire a player whose [url=https://www.ramsmaster.com/Bryce_Hager_Jersey.NFL][b]Bryce Hager Jersey[/b][/url] four-year, $1.85 million cap-hit contract makes him e sentially worthle s. They didn’t need to do it for salary-cap reasons, either.
The Kings e sentially cleared space for AHL goalie Martin Jones to back up Jonathan Quick full time; their current return on Jonathan Bernier, who they traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in the offseason, is winger Matt Frattin, a second-round pick and a third-round pick.
The biggest bummer in the deal, though, is that Scrivens’ wife, Jenny, is a California native [url=https://www.ramsmaster.com/Nickell_Robey_Coleman_Jersey.NFL][b]Nickell Robey-Coleman Jersey[/b][/url] . She seemed to be having a pretty good time at home.
