Welcome to the daily fantasy hockey picks article for DraftKings, FanDuel, and DraftPot for Thursday, November 19, 2015. We have 9 games tonight with only 1 team(WSH) playing on back to back nights and 2 teams(ANH, STL) playing a 3rd game in 4 nights. There are some tremendous value plays tonight which makes easier to roster the high priced stars. In daily fantasy hockey it seems to take a lot longer for salaries to rise on low end values. On the flip side it also takes a long time for the high end players salaries to drop making some players unplayable.

Lets now dig in to the matchups and find some core plays for Thursday night.

GOALIES

Jake Allen - St. Louis Blues *PROBABLE*
DraftKings - $7,300 FanDuel - $9,800 DraftPot - 6.20 DPPG
After a win last time out his price has dropped on DraftKings $200 and makes a great play in any format tonight. The Blues are the biggest favorites on the board tonight at home vs. the Sabres who are ranked 25th in offense.

Roberto Luongo - Florida Panthers vs. ANH *CONFIRMED*
DraftKings - $7,700 FanDuel - $8,700 DraftPot - 4.66 DPPG
He has picked up wins in 3 of his last 4 games with a shutout and has a .926 save % on the season. The Panthers are at home tonight vs. the Ducks who are struggling to score and pickup wins on the road. Luongo makes a great pick in any format tonight.

Also Consider - Tukka Rask - Boston Bruins

CENTER

Kyle Turris - Ottawa Senators vs. CBJ
DraftKings - $6,200 FanDuel - $6,900 DraftPot - 2.70 DPPG
He sits at the top of both the FanDuel and DraftKings projections and is a great value on DraftPot. He has been on a cold spell lately after a great start to the season and should be used in GPP's only tonight.

Joe Pavelski - San JOse Sharks @ PHI
DraftKings - $7,500 FanDuel(RW) - $8,700 DraftPot(RW) - 4.38 DPPG
He is a RW on both FanDuel & DraftPot and makes a fantastic play in any format. He has been very consistent on the season with 18 points in 18 games with a +10 rating. The Sharks travel to Philadelphia on Thursday night for a tilt with the Flyers who are ranked at the bottom in goals allowed per game.

Also Consider Ryan Johansen - Columbus Blue Jackets

WINGERS

Alex Ovechkin - Washington Capitals vs. DAL
DraftKings - $9,600 FanDuel(RW) - $9,900 DraftPot - 5.10 DPPG
With his recent 3 game scoreless streak he should come in low owned tonight which makes it a great time to jump on board in GPP's. He has huge upside with the amount of shots he takes. He averages 28.5 CF/60 in all situations and plays the entire powerplay as the trigger man.

Brendon Gallagher - Montreal Canadiens vs. ARI
DraftKings - $5,900 FanDuel(RW) - $5,700 DraftPot - 3.90 DPPG
He presents the cheapest exposure to the Habs top line and makes a great cash game play tonight. If you are playing GPP's, he also makes a great line stack with Pacioretty & Plekanec. He is currently riding a 5 game point streak and sits with 17 points on the season.

Melker Karlsson - San Jose Sharks @ PHI
DraftKings(C) - $3,700 FanDuel(LW) - $3,800 DraftPot - 1.45 DPPG
He is an unbelievably cheap value play across the industry since joining the top line. Playing with Big Joe and Little Joe has increased his value and it's only a matter of time before the cost goes up. He picked up 2 points in his first start on the top line and should be in for more production tonight vs. a bad Flyers team.

Also Consider - Phil Kessel - Pittsburgh Penguins

DEFENSE

Shayne Gostisbehere - Philadelphia Flyers vs. SJ
DraftKings - $2,700 FanDuel - $3,000 DraftPot - .50 DPPG
As a life long Flyers fan it has been a very tough year. The injury to Mark Streit has opened a door to a young blue chip prospect and he has already shown he is ready to produce at the highest level. He has 2 points in his first 2 games including a PP goal and has 6 shots and 2 blocks. He is the quarterback on PP and is told to take a ton of shots. The upside is huge at these prices.

Brent Burns - San Jose Sharks @ PHI
DraftKings - $7,100 FanDuel - $7,300 DraftPot - 4.90 DPPG
On the other side of the ice is a great GPP play in Burns. His price is sky high but the production is there to back it up. He has 14 points so far this season and is averaging 17.9 CF/60 which is Top 30 in the NHL. The Sharks face the Flyers tonight in a potential barn burner.

Also Consider - Kevin Shattenkirk - St. Louis Blues
