Analysis:

After an uninspiring 4-0 loss to the Rangers over the weekend, coach Todd McLellan will shake up his lines in the hopes of revitalizing the offense. Nieto has gone without a point in his last three games after getting off to a hot start to the season, but playing with talents like Pavelski and Thornton could help spark the youngster's production. The line arrangement isn't expected to last long-term, but Nieto might make for an inexpensive, high-quality speculative play in daily formats Tuesday.
