MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIES Braden Holtby FD - $9700 DK - $8600 Opponent - CAR Proj Pts FD - 19.19 DK - 4.8 After Grubaeur picked up the shutout win in Washington's last game, we should see Holtby back in net tonight vs. the Hurricanes. He should be well rested as he hasn't made more tan two straight starts since the beginning of January. He has been very consistent since the calendar flipped to 2017 as he has won 12 of his last 14 starts with three shutouts. Tonight the Caps and their #1 defense get a matchup vs. the Canes and their 17th ranked offense. Although the Canes have won three straight, they really struggle on the road(7-14-6) scoring more than two goals just once in their last eight road games. Holtby is safe in all formats. Matthew Murray FD - $9200 DK - $7700 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 18.95 DK - 4.74 If you are looking for a little saving at the goalie position tonight, get Murray in your lineups in an elite home matchup. He should also be well rested as Marc-Andre Fleury got the start and win in the Pens last game. Murray is the clear #1 option in Pittsburgh despite a few struggles pre All-Star break. He obviously didn't let those struggles get to him as he came out of the break winning two straight games, stopping 65 of 70 shots he faced....
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/6/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/6/17 Hello, hockey fans and welcome to a tiny three-game slate in the NHL world. There are some high scoring games expected today and none of the teams are playing in back-to-back games. Let's get 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.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIES Cory Schneider FD - $8300 DK - $7600 Opponent - BUF Proj Pts FD - 16.67 DK - 4.17 Most tiny slates are suited for GPP's only and today is definitely no exception. You will not see me write the word safe today, which is rare for me because I'm mainly a cash game player. But I've also had experience with a GPP or two before. Let's start off with my favorite goalie for today's slate. Schneider has won two of his last three starts. Last time out, he stopped 31 out of 32 shots in Columbus en-route to a 5-1 victory for the Devils. New Jersey scored five goals in one game? Oh my goodness! The Sabres are actually a much better offensive team on the road, as they rank 15th in the league in goals scored. Schneider is still a good goalie, he just plays on a below average team. I'm looking for him to shut the door on the Sabres this evening and I believe that he is our best bet for a win and possibly a shutout. CENTERS John Tavares FD - $8300 DK - $7600 Opponent - TOR Proj Pts FD - 19.17 DK - 5.5 Auston Matthews is going to be very popular tonight and with good reason. The Leafs have been scoring a ton of goals lately, but they've also been letting in goals like nobody's business. The Leafs also spread their ice time out fairly evenly throughout their top three lines, so it can be painful at times from a DFS perspective. The Islanders don't do that. They have one good line and it is lead by none other than...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/5/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/5/17 Hello DFSR fans and welcome to a tiny three-game slate in the NHL. The Super Bowl is on today, of course, so all three games are being played early. We have some great plays lined up for you, so let's dive right in. 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! GOALIES Henrik Lundqvist FD - $8700 DK - $8000 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 17.99 DK - 4.5 Today looks to be a decent day for choosing a goaltender. When it is a tough day, I will say that I give you the best of the worst option. Well, today it is more like the best of the best and my top choice is the future Hall of Famer King Henrik. The Rangers welcome the Calgary Flames and their below average 19th ranked offense to town today and New York is currently listed as -150 favorites according to Vegas. Lundqvist hasn't had the best year so far by his standards, but he stood on his head last game in Buffalo as he turned aside 36 of 37 shots for the victory. He also should have plenty of support today, as the Rangers are ranked #2 on offense. King Henrik is a great play in all formats today. Also Consider: Al Montoya or Carey Price (MTL) CENTERS Jeff Carter FD - $7700 DK - $7200 Opponent - WAS Proj Pts FD - 14.1 DK - 4.32 There are those times where he have to choose a guy no matter who he is up against on a certain day. Today is one of those days, because Carter and the Kings travel to D.C. to face the Capitals and their #1 ranked defense. Carter has three goals and 16 shots on goal in his last two games. Yes, you read that correctly. That is eight shots per game. Yesterday in Philly, Carter scored the...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/4/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/4/17 Welcome to another huge day of daily fantasy hockey. Saturday brings us a split slate with three afternoon games 10 games on the main state later tonight. Let's dig in and take a look at some of the top values from the projection system. 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! GOALIES Early Slate Ondrej Pavelec FD - $7800 DK - $8000 Opponent - COL Proj Pts FD - 15.79 DK - 3.95 The early slate is a bit of a mess at goalie with the top two guys(Holtby & Price) facing each other today. The Jets are the biggest favorites(-160) of the three early games which has me leaning Pavelec. To be honest, I would only recommend playing GPP's in the early slate as Pavelec just doesn't ring those "safety" bells to me. Despite being on the road, he gets a great matchup vs. the Avalanche who rank dead last in both offense and defense and have been terrible at home(5-18-1) all season long. Main Slate Pekka Rinne FD - $9100 DK - $8100 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 18.7 DK - 4.67 Looking at the 10 game main slate, there are two big favorites(SJ/NSH), both at home in great spots to come out victorious and produce the top goalie of the night. I lean Rinne over Jones for two reasons. First of all, the Sharks rank third overall in shots against and Jones has only seen around 26 shots per 60 minutes which really limits the floor on a night to night basis. Second, Rinne is coming off a 31 save shutout of the Oilers and now faces a struggling Red Wings team playing on a back to back night. Also Consider: Martin Jones(GPP) CENTERS Early Slate Mark Scheifele FD - $7900 DK - $6500 Opponent - COL Proj Pts FD - 13.58 DK...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/3/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/3/17 Hello and welcome to a nice cozy five-game NHL slate at DFSR. It looks like a fairly tough day today from a safety standpoint, but there are some nice matchups that we can take advantage of. Edmonton is the only team playing in back-to-back games and it is also their third game in four nights. Let's not waste any more time and dive right into today's 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.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIES Thomas Greiss FD - $8700 DK - $7600 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 15.19 DK - 3.8 You know it is going to be a tough day at the position when a New York Islanders goalie is the top choice and especially while playing on the road. Playing in cash games today is not advisable, but I'm stubborn and I will still have my share of 50/50 and double-up lineups. I couldn't believe how amazing that Greiss has been until I read his stats last night. The German netminder is 5-0-1 in his last six games with an outstanding 1.32 goals against average, a .955 save percentage and two shutouts. Tonight the Islanders travel to Detroit to play the Wings and their not so good 24th ranked offense. Greiss shouldn't be a popular pick today because Detroit is a slight favorite as of now. All I know is that he is going to be the only goalie that I use today in all formats and you should strongly consider him as well. Also Consider: John Gibson (Ana) (GPP) CENTERS John Tavares FD - $8300 DK - $7200 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 17.53 DK - 5.49 On a full slate, we could probably put another center in the top spot (depending on the players available,) but Johnny T is an easy choice for me today as he and the Islanders play Detroit and their 20th ranked defense.
