We've got you completely covered. GOALIE Ben Bishop FD - $8800 DK - $8000 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 20.94 DK - 15.63 The goalie position is a bit tricky as the top goalies are either in below-average matchups, struggling, or on the road so let's start with the one I am most confident in tonight. Bishop is off to another good start with the Stars this season and enters the night with a .926 save % and after two rough starts rebounded in a huge way saving 72 of 76 shots(.947 save %) in back to back wins vs. the Avs and Preds. Tonight he and the Stars are -140 road favorites against a Ducks team that has lost seven of their last 10 games and own the 28th ranked home offense. On FanDuel, he is the second most expensive goalie making the decision very close but on DraftKings he is my favorite PTS/$ goalie as the 10th most expensive option at the position. Marc-Andre Fleury FD - $8000 DK - $8400 Opponent - LA Proj Pts FD - 20.17 DK - 14.41 Fleury fits under the category of top goalie who has been struggling as he has allowed four goals in each of his last three starts bringing his save % down to .909 for the season. I am not too concerned here as the Golden Knights are in a great spot as -260 home favorites against a Kings team that has scored two or fewer goals in six of their last eight games while ranking 28th in road offense on the season. I prefer Bishop's price on DraftKings tonight but on FanDuel, I will ride with Fleury at an $800 discount and plus matchup. **Update - Malcolm Subban is starting for the Golden Knights. I won't be using in cash games but he does make a decent GPP pivot.** Also Consider: Andrei Vasilevskiy(TB) or Jaroslav Halak(BOS) as big home favorites CENTERS Mika Zibanejad FD - $7600 DK - $7300 Opponent - NJ Proj Pts FD - 20.21 DK - 16.04 This won't be a...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 1/7/20 The new year continues with another monster slate as we get 12 games on the ice tonight including four games with a 6.5 Vegas total.

We've got you completely covered. GOALIE Andrei Vasilevskiy FD - $9000 DK - $7800 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 21.41 DK - 15.6 While there are 12 games tonight, the goalie position is a little tricky for cash games. I am going to start in Tampa where the Bolts are big -225 favorites in one of the games of the night as both teams come in red-hot with seven-game winning streaks. Something has to give, right? The good news here is that while the Canucks have been dominant at home(5th in home scoring) they have been almost a goal per game less effective on the road. For Vasi, it has been an up and down season but he has eight wins in his last 10 starts and has stopped 66 of 68 shots in back to wins on the road vs. the Hurricanes and Canadiens coming into this one. He is in play in all formats but his best value is easily on DraftKings where he comes in under $8K. Marc-Andre Fleury FD - $8000 DK - $8100 Opponent - PIT Proj Pts FD - 20.65 DK - 15.37 If you are looking for a little trip down narrative street, Marc-Andre Fleury fits the bill going up against his old team. I am not one to go down that street often and the good news is there is more to like about Fleury who is a -150 home favorite and while he hasn't been as sharp, he has won four straight and six of his last eight starts while facing over 31 shots per game. The other price of the puzzle is the Pens offense that is very thin without Sidney Crosby and now Jake Guentzel. At these prices, I will have exposure to Fleury in all formats tonight. CENTERS Brayden Point FD - $7200 DK - $5900 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 14.1 DK - 11.22 Like I mentioned above, this matchup features two teams on winning streaks but I will be leaning heavily on the home team tonight. I will start with Brayden Point...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 1/2/20 Happy New Year hockey fans. After another exciting Winter Classic game yesterday, we are back with a huge 12-game slate on Thursday. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the core plays at each position that we can build around. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NHL optimizer!

We've got you completely covered. GOALIE Tristan Jarry FD - $8800 DK - $8500 Opponent - SJ Proj Pts FD - 23.29 DK - 17.49 The goalie position is absolutely loaded at the top tonight and I will start with Tristan Jarry who has put the team on his back with injuries Sidney Crosby and now Jake Guentzel. He has tallied a very impressive 8-2 record over his last 10 starts which includes three shutouts and a .939 save %. Even without Sid and Guentzel, the Pens open as -180 favorites tonight going up against a Sharks team that has been on a slide losing 11 of their last 13 games while scoring just 2.3 goals per game. He and Matt Murray have alternated starts in the Pens last four games and if Murray does get the start, I will turn elsewhere in cash games but will have exposure in GPP formats. As for Jarry, if he is in between the pipes on Thursday, he is my favorite goalie in all formats. Antti Raanta FD - $7800 DK - $8300 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 19.46 DK - 14.14 This is more of a play on FanDuel where Raanta comes in under $8K giving him excellent PTS/$ value tonight as a -180 home favorite in one of three games with a low 5.5 total. He will be facing the Ducks who own the 2nd worst record on the season, rank 21st in road offense, and have dropped five of their last seven games. For Raanta, he has worked as the backup behind Darcy Kuemper and while he has been inconsistent he is coming off a 38-save win against the Blues. I will use him as a low-owned GPP play on DraftKings and in all formats on FanDuel. Also Consider: Semyon Varlamov(NYI) in all formats in a top matchup as a -200 favorite against the Devils 29th ranked offense CENTERS Evgeni Malkin FD - $8600 DK - $7200 Opponent - SJ Proj Pts FD - 20.66 DK - 16.15 Much like the goalie position, center is absolutely...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/27/19 After a nice little three-day Christmas break, the NHL returns with a massive 11-game slate on Friday night. Let's dig in and take a look at some of my core plays at each position. Want more? Make sure to jump into chat and as I discuss line combinations and all my favorite cash, GPP, and value plays on this slate.

GOALIE Philipp Grubauer FD - $7600 DK - $8400 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 19.1 DK - 13.7 Pavel Francouz FD - $8400 DK - $8400 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 22.78 DK - 16.93 The Avalanche went into the Christmas break with the second-best record in the Western Conference and while a lot of that rests on their #1 ranked offense, the defense and goaltending have also played a huge part(#9 ranked defense). Grubauer has been the main goalie in Colorado with 21 starts but with his struggles over the last couple of weeks, we could be seeing a changing of the guard, if you will. Rookie, Pavel Francouz, has done everything in his power to win over his coach and teammates winning seven of his last eight games with a .942 save %. As -210 favorites at home vs. the Wild's 28th ranked offense, I will have exposure to whichever goalie is between the pipes but will be overweight if it's Francouz. Also Consisder: Braden Holtby(WAS), Frederik Anderson(TOR) CENTERS Auston Matthews FD - $8400 DK - $7300 Opponent - NJ Proj Pts FD - 19.08 DK - 15.45 John Tavares FD - $7800 DK - $7100 Opponent - NJ Proj Pts FD - 17.32 DK - 14.04 The Devils/Leafs game is currently(mid-afternoon Thursday) the only one on this slate with a 6.5 total and we will be concentrating on the Leafs who have the third-highest implied goal total(3.8) in the system tonight. Considering Matthews/Tavares are the 6th/8th most expensive centers on DraftKings and the 5th/9th most expensive on FanDuel, I will list them both and could even make the case to stack them together. First of all, they both give you elite shot volume averaging over three shots per game on the season and both have been red-hot lately averaging over 15 DK/17 FD points per game in their last 10. In a matchup against the Devils 29th ranked defense,...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/23/19 Welcome back hockey fans.

GOALIE Carter Hart FD - $7900 DK - $8200 Opponent - NYR Proj Pts FD - 19.79 DK - 14.44 While the Flyers have been merely average on the road(8-9-1) this season, they have been one of the best home teams in the league(12-2-4) and it starts with Carter Hart. He has an impressive 10-1-2 record on home ice with an elite .944 save % and comes in hot winning six of his last eight starts with a .936 save%. The only issue with Hart is that he doesn't face a ton of shots but of all the top goalies, he has the best form and a great shot at the win as a -175 favorite agaisnt the Rangers. All things considered(even my Flyers fandom), hart is my favorite play at the position in cash games. Connor Hellebuyck FD - $8000 DK - $8300 Opponent - MON Proj Pts FD - 21.11 DK - 15.83 Hellebuyck is coming off an impressive 31 save shutout in Minnesota on Saturday but has been very up down lately moving him to #2 in my ranks tonight. The Habs also come into Winnipeg with a Top 10 offense which adds some risk but what I like here is that the Hellebuyck faces a ton of shots(30.3 per game) while the Habs take a ton of shots(34.8) which elevates Hellebuyck's floor and ceiling. I prefer the safety with Hart in cash games but the projected shot volume for Hellebuyck has me loving him as a GPP pivot tonight. CENTERS Jack Eichel FD - $8800 DK - $8200 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 23.13 DK - 18.41 After missing one game due to an upper-body injury, Eichel returned to the lineup on Saturday night to extend his point streak to 18 games(despite the official NHL designation). What's even more amazing about the streak is that he has tallied multiple points nine times for a total of 32 points while averaging a whopping 3.8 shots on goal. The streak most definitely has life tonight as he faces a Senators team that has given up 19 goals over their last 10 games. From a raw...
