MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Sergei Bobrovsky FD - $8700 DK - $8300 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 16.35 DK - 4.25 Korpisalo got the start last night and got the win vs. the Avalanche so it is almost a certainty we will see Bobrovsky back between the pipes tonight. While the Blue Jackets are playing a back to back and third game in four nights, so are their opponents who got shutout last night against the Golden Knights. The Red Wings have also struggled offensively this season ranking 28th overall and now go into Columbus to a face the #2 home defense. Bobrovsky isn't having a Vezina-type season but has been better lately winning three of his last four starts while posting a .930 save %. All things considered, Bob is my top goalie and safe in all formats. Also Consider: Devan Dubnyk(MIN) in GPP formats CENTERS Tyler Seguin FD - $8300 DK - $7400 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 17.32 DK - 5.05 Even on a small slate, there are a couple elite options at the top of the center position and I will be leading off(sorry baseball season coming) with Tyler Seguin. He provides us with a very high floor as he sits third in the league in shots with 269(4.0 per game) and also brings a ton of upside with 36 goals(4th overall) and 62 points. The matchup may not be the best as the Ducks are a Top 5 defense on the road but are playing on a back to...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/8/18
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/8/18 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another exciting day of NHL action here at DFSR. This evening, we have a massive 12-game slate on tap for us with only two teams(BUF,PHI) playing on consecutive nights, so almost everyone should be well-rested and ready to go. There are some weak defenses to go along with some high-powered offenses hitting the ice today, so let's not waste any more time and dive right into the picks. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night. When you purchase a DFSR NHL subscription to our base hockey projections you also get access to our brand new NFL DFS suite of tools including full projections, optimal NFL lineups and our Player Lab, which includes filters to help you create NFL lineups for FanDuel and DraftKings for any format.

If you want to see the numbers behind our projections, create lineups with a single click, or research as deeply as your heart desires, click the button below to test out yourself. MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Pekka Rinne FD - $9100 DK - $8200 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 14.76 DK - 3.69 Elite goalies realize when it is time to shine and this veteran superstar is more than ready to carry his team on his back as the Preds look to make a deep playoff run again this season. Rinne is a terrific 17-1-1 in his last 19 games to go along with a stifling .928 save %, 2.29 GAA, and seven shutouts. The Ducks have been playing better of late, but they still own the league's 19th ranked offense and Rinne most recently earned a shutout against a solid Stars offense, so I'm not the least bit concerned this evening. Rinne is equivalent to a brick wall right now and he is an elite play and my top goalie in all formats. Andrei Vasilevskiy FD - $9200 DK - $8500 Opponent - NYR Proj Pts FD - 14.29 DK - 3.57 If all you are worried about when rostering a goalie is earning the 12 points on Fanduel and four points over at Draftkings for the win then this is your guy but I will warn you that he could very well allow more than a couple of goals in the process. It helps a great deal when you play for the league's #1 powerhouse of an offense, but the young tender has allowed 10 goals in...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/7/18
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/7/18 Welcome back hockey fans. After a busy night in the NHL last night, we are back with a small three-game slate tonight where no team will be playing a back to back. Let's have a look at a few options to target at each position. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night. When you purchase a DFSR NHL subscription to our base hockey projections you also get access to our brand new NFL DFS suite of tools including full projections, optimal NFL lineups and our Player Lab, which includes filters to help you create NFL lineups for FanDuel and DraftKings for any format.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Chad Johnson FD - $7600 DK - $7400 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 16.69 DK - 4.17 This slate has GPP only written all over it so for my top goalie I will be turning to Chad Johnson of the Sabres facing the Flames 11th ranked road offense. He has struggled pretty much all season with a 7-10-3 record and .898 save % but has been playing his best hockey most recently as he has won three straight games against some powerful offenses in Toronto, Tampa Bay, and Boston while giving up just five total goals(.951 save %). More good news as the Flames have been struggling lately losing four straight while scoring just six goals in that span. Even if you can't get away from cash games I would still recommend Johnson tonight. For me, I will be playing more heads to heads than double-ups. Also Consider: Jacob Markstrom(VAN) CENTERS Evgeni Malkin FD - $9100 DK - $7700 Opponent - PHI Proj Pts FD - 18.67 DK - 5.43 Even on a three-game slate, there is always a way to fit in a superstar player. Enter Evgeni Malkin who has been lights out lately with 19 points over his last 10 games with 33 shots on goal giving him a very high floor and ceiling. Tonight he gets a matchup vs. the Flyers who were red hot when Mrazek came over in a trade but have cooled off to sub-zero temperatures as they have dropped three straight while giving up 15 goals against. The good news with Malkin is that you...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/6/18
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/6/18 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another awesome day of NHL action here at DFSR. This evening, we have nine games on tap for us with only one team(DAL) playing in a back-to-back, so almost everyone should be well-rested and ready to give it all they have. Let's get this party started! Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night. When you purchase a DFSR NHL subscription to our base hockey projections you also get access to our brand new NFL DFS suite of tools including full projections, optimal NFL lineups and our Player Lab, which includes filters to help you create NFL lineups for FanDuel and DraftKings for any format.

If you want to see the numbers behind our projections, create lineups with a single click, or research as deeply as your heart desires, click the button below to test out yourself. MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Devan Dubnyk FD - $8600 DK - $8400 Opponent - CAR Proj Pts FD - 13.5 DK - 3.97 There are two elite tenders that stand out above the rest for me and it starts with Dubnyk, who has been absolute money this season on home-ice as he carries an 18-3-5 record to go along with a stifling .930 save % and a 2.15 GAA while playing in Minnesota. The veteran goalie has won five of his last six starts as he looks to carry the Wild on his back into the postseason. Dubnyk and the Wild are on a roll and the Hurricanes are ranked 26th offensively, so all things considered, he is a terrific play in all formats. Pekka Rinne FD - $8700 DK - $8100 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 15.7 DK - 3.93 This superstar goalie is a ridiculous 16-1-1 in his last 18 games and he just recorded his 35th of the win of the season which is second-best in the league. Also, he has a terrific .927 save % to go along with a respectable 2.32 GAA and he has won his last six games in a row. While the Stars are slightly above average offensively, they are currently going into overtime in Dallas as I am writing this, so they will be getting into Nashville very late and should be exhausted. Fire up Rinne in all formats as the Preds should cruise to an easy victory on home-ice this evening. CENTERS Nathan MacKinnon FD - $8600 DK -...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/5/18
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/5/18 Welcome back hockey fans. Monday night brings us a smaller five-game slate but with seven of the bottom 10 defenses in play, there is no shortage of top plays. Let's jump in and take a look at some of them at each position. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night. When you purchase a DFSR NHL subscription to our base hockey projections you also get access to our brand new NFL DFS suite of tools including full projections, optimal NFL lineups and our Player Lab, which includes filters to help you create NFL lineups for FanDuel and DraftKings for any format.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Ben Bishop FD - $8600 DK - $8500 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 19.19 DK - 4.8 There are a lot of juicy matchups tonight but the goalie that stands out as the #1 option is Ben Bishop. He has been a bit up and down lately giving up four or more goals three times in his last 10 starts but is coming off a 35 save win against the Blues on Saturday. He has also been money on home ice with a 20-8-2 record with an elite .930 save % and four shutouts. He will also have a great shot to add to those numbers tonight as the Stars are huge -230 favorites vs. the Senators who have lost six of their last seven games and rank 24th overall in offense. Bishop is my top option in all formats tonight. Also Consider: Triston Jarry(PIT) as a GPP pivot CENTERS **Evgeni Malkin and Connor McDavid are in terrific spots tonight but on a small slate I will be using them in GPP only and taking the discount at center to build a more balanced lineup.** Tyler Seguin FD - $8200 DK - $7500 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 16.54 DK - 4.84 On a small five-game slate the center position is loaded at the top tonight but like I mentioned above, I will be taking the discount on both sites to construct a more balanced lineup. Enter Tyler Seguin who has been red-hot over the past week and a half and enters tonight with a five-game point streak that includes three multi-point...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/3/18
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/3/18 Welcome back hockey fans. Today we have eight games in total with a five-game early slate(DraftKings) starting at 1:00 p.m. ET followed by a three-game main slate starting at 8:00 p.m. ET tonight. For the purpose of this article, I will be concentrating on the "normal" slate setup on DraftKings but the picks will carry over for FanDuel. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position on each slate. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night. When you purchase a DFSR NHL subscription to our base hockey projections you also get access to our brand new NFL DFS suite of tools including full projections, optimal NFL lineups and our Player Lab, which includes filters to help you create NFL lineups for FanDuel and DraftKings for any format.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Early Slate Jonathan Quick FD - $ DK - $8500 Opponent - CHI Proj Pts FD - N/A DK - 4.65 There are a few ways to go at goalie on the early slate but for me, the choice is Quick. He isn't having his best season overall with a 25-23-2 record but has been much better as of late winning four of his last six starts and in those six starts has allowed more than two goals just once(.944 save %). Tonight he gets a plus matchup vs. a struggling Blackhawks team that has dropped 15 of their last 20 games and rank 20th in offense on the season and also offer Quick some upside as they average 34.7 shots on goal per game. He is safe in all formats. Main Slate Antti Raanta FD - $7300 DK - $8200 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 15.73 DK - 3.93 I don't normally play cash games on a small slate like this anyway so Raanta fits right into the mold and is my top goalie on the main slate. The Coyotes are the league's worst team with a 19-24-10 record but Raanta has been terrific, specifically lately as he has won four of his last five starts with two shutouts and a .946 save %. He and the Coyotes get a great matchup tonight facing the Senators who sit near the...
