Nico Hischier Finally Lights Lamp and It Counts

Nico Hischier had a few goals disallowed in the early going this year. However, down 1-0, Hischier took a beating and looked very hurt. Yet, he soldiered on and found a way to score on the power play. That power-play goal tied the game at 1 and paved the way for the overtime heroics. Hischier […]

Nico Daws Shines for New Jersey in Unexpected Start

Nico Daws was pressed into duty after the ineffectiveness of Scott Wedgewood on Thursday against Washington. For the first 20 minutes, New Jersey fell behind 1-0 but Daws stood tall.

Conor Garland One to Watch for Vancouver Canucks

The […]

Thatcher Demko Expected to Start in Net Against Seattle

Thatcher Demko will likely get the nod on Saturday night as the Vancouver Canucks travel down to Seattle to face the Seattle Kraken. The goaltender has two wins on the season in four decisions - one loss and one post-regulation defeat. Demko has looked good in the early going with a 2.66 goals-against-average and a […]

Aric Almirola Could Move Up At Kansas

While Aric Almirola has plenty of risks, he did finish 13th or better in three of his previous four results at Kansas. 2017 even saw him end up 9th which was a +16 place differential. The Stewart Haas Racing driver could have the Kevin Harvick build in use for Sunday too. Though he has never […]

Bubba Wallace One To Avoid At Kansas

Bubba Wallace has seen Kansas not be all that kind to the racing driver. As a matter of fact, the 23XI Racing driver has never finished better than 18th. That 2020 Fall race was his best place differential at +6. He starts 27th and could move up a little but even that seems not so […]

Alex Bowman Has Place-Differential Possibilities At Kansas

Alex Bowman is the one Hendricks Motorsports Racing driver that has been forgotten some. Bowman will start the Sunday afternoon race at Kansas from the 25th position. The No. 48 car has four top-ten results in his previous seven races. That translates to an average finish of 9.86. That is right near Kyle Larson's 9.6. […]

Erik Jones A More Intriguing Option At Kansas

Erik Jones begins this Kansas race from the 17th position on Sunday afternoon. That may be good news based on his 10.14 average finish. That includes five top-ten results in his previous seven races on the 1.5-mile speedway. The risk lies in the fact that with the Richard Petty Motorsports driver ended 25th during the […]

Daniel Suarez Likely To Fall At Kansas On Sunday

Daniel Suarez and Trackhouse Racing have the Spring race at Kansas kind of figured out. However, when the leaves fall and the weather changes, so do the fortunes. Suarez has ended up outside the top-20 all four times. Suarez has never led a lap on the track but worse, the No. 99 car likely intrigued […]

Matt DiBenedetto Does Have DFS Upside At Kansas

Matt DiBenedetto and his time with Wood Brothers Racing is almost at an end. However, one of his best results of the season was a fourth-place at Kansas. Lost in the shuffle is this. DiBenedetto finished in 15th (2019 Fall race). Then, there was the 12th last Fall. In that race, the No. 21 driver […]

Austin Dillon Unlikely To Be Much Of A Factor

Austin Dillon may just finish right around where he starts on Sunday. The Richard Childress Racing driver begins 14th. Most of his results have been ranging from 10th-17th since 2017. Dillon typically does not get too close to the front either. In his career, the No. 3 car has led just six laps. Again, the […]

Kurt Busch Could Lurk Around Top 10 At Kansas

Kurt Busch had a bit of a lost time the past two races on the Kansas track. He started 28th this Spring and still ended up in the top-15. The No. 1 driver had three top-tens before an engine issue in the 2019 Fall race. The Chip Ganassi vehicle does carry some good speed. However, […]

Tyler Reddick Starts Outside Top 10 On Sunday At Kansas

Tyler Reddick begins the Kansas race from the 12th position on Sunday afternoon. The Richard Childress Racing driver finished 25th in the only Fall race for the No. 8 car. He has two top tens during the early races though. That explains his 13.5 average finish overall. What does one make of limited data? That […]

Kevin Harvick Expected To Finish Well At Kansas

Kevin Harvick and Kansas just seem to go together. Harvick was struggling early this season mightily, came to the track, did not lead a lap, yet finished second. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver enjoys these low-wear tracks but particularly this one. This is a driver that has led the second-most laps over the previous three years […]

Christopher Bell A Long Shot At Kansas Motor Speedway

Christopher Bell cannot be automatically counted out at Kansas but is realistically a long shot on the track. He finished tenth last year during the Fall race. The two "early" races have seen less fruitful results for the Joe Gibbs Racing driver. Also, the chances he leads a lap coming from the tenth position looks […]

William Byron Has Good Numbers At Kansas

William Byron has favorable results at Kansas. While he has not won or come all that close, the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver could factor into the "Chase" somewhat. Byron has four straight top-ten results on the track. His best finish was fifth during the Fall 2019 race. There is only one time where Byron has […]

Joey Logano Has Mixed Numbers Everywhere At Kansas

Joey Logano needs to win or hope for Martinsville. His blown engine last week has created this situation. The No. 22 Ford driver won just last Fall on the Kansas speedway. His Mustang has been excellent on this track at times and not so good. He also won in 2015 and nearly did in 2016. […]

Martin Truex Jr. May Be A Risk At Kansas

Martin Truex Jr. has consistently finished in the top 10 on the Kansas track. He has six top-10 finishes and a win over the past three seasons. The problem may be that his Furniture Row racing car was must faster on this low-wear track than his current Joe Gibbs car. The No. 19 can contend, […]

Chase Elliott Is The Most Consistent Driver At Kansas

Chase Elliott needs a very good to great result at Kansas. Would a win be ideal? Absolutely. The No. 9 car has won once in the past three seasons. Also, he has the best average finish among all drivers at 6.00. This includes five top-10 finishes, and all five of those are sixth-place results or […]

Kyle Busch A Threat To Win Hollywood Casino 400

Kyle Busch has been one of the best Joe Gibbs Racing drivers not to win the Fall race at Kansas. Over the past three Fall races, the younger Busch has finished no worse than fifth. It is odd though that the No. 18 car has only led four laps during that entire span. However, he […]

Brad Keselowski A True Wild Card At Kansas On Sunday

Brad Keselowski has five top-six finishes in his last six races on the Kansas speedway. That includes a win in 2019. The only problem is that the Team Penske driver has had his share of issues too. The last two Fall races have seen Keselowski lead less than ten laps and have dropped later in […]

Ryan Blaney Looks Strong Heading To Kansas

Ryan Blaney and his Team Penske car have to be considered a threat to win at Kansas on Sunday. Now, Blaney becomes interesting (starts second on metrics) if he continues to use the Brad Keselowski build. Blaney has three top-tens during the past four Fall races at Kansas, That includes a third in 2017. Expecting […]
