Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/15/17 Welcome back daily fantasy hockey fans. This Friday we get a smaller five-game slate that includes four teams(BUF, NJ, TOR, SJ) playing on back to back nights with three of those teams(BUF, NJ, TOR) also playing their third game in four nights. It is also of note that the Maple Leafs have played all three of those games on the road this week so there could be some fatigue there. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Kari Lehtonen FD - $7400 DK - $7500 Opponent - NJ Proj Pts FD - 15.14 DK - 3.78 The goalie position is a bit tricky tonight as you can see with my two choices but Lehtonen has already been confirmed to start tonight and provides a ton of salary relief on a small slate. He is making his 10th start of the season and has been solid lately winning two straight and has only allowed more than two goals in a game three times all year. The Devils do rank 10th overall in offense but have somewhat fallen off lately averaging just 2.7 goals per game over their last 10 games and should be without their best player, Taylor Hall, once again on Friday. Martin Jones FD - $8500 DK - $8400 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 15.52 DK - 4.13 I will start off by saying that Jones has not been good lately giving up four or more goals in four straight games while being outplayed big time by backup Aaron Dell. With Dell getting the nod on Thursday night, it will be Jones getting another shot to snap out of the slump tonight and with his recent play and the Sharks on a back to back on the road, this makes him a possible low-owned GPP play. What I...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/14/17 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another exciting day of NHL action here at DFSR. Today, we have a massive 12-game slate in store for us with a few top offenses to go along with some weak defenses, so let's not waste any more time and get started with some picks. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Brian Elliott FD - $7800 DK - $7700 Opponent - BUF Proj Pts FD - 14.36 DK - 3.59 After surviving a very lengthy losing streak that ended a couple of weeks ago, the Flyers have now pulled off four straight wins with this guy allowing only seven goals in those four games. The veteran tender gets an easy matchup tonight against the Sabres and their league-worst offense that scores only 2.16 goals per game. Vegas currently has the Flyers listed as -180 home favorites and Elliot is the 23rd most expensive goalie on FanDuel and 15th on Draftkings, so with all of these things considered, he is my top goalie in all formats. Andrei Vasilevskiy FD - $9500 DK - $8400 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 13.65 DK - 3.41 This young Russian goalie is having one heck of a year so far and with his recent shutout in St. Louis, he became the first goalie to reach 20 victories and he boasts a sensational .933 save % to go along with four shutouts. Tonight's opponent, the Arizona Coyotes, are also awful offensively as they score only 2.24 goals per game, which is second worst in the league. Because Vasilevskiy is on the road, I prefer him in GPP's this evening, but I wouldn't be surprised if he earned his second shutout in a row against a bad Coyotes squad. Also Consider: Carey Price (MTL) GPP's only CENTERS Brayden Point FD - $5800 DK - $5900 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 13.68 DK...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/13/17 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another day of NHL action here at DFSR. Today, we have a small four-game slate in front of us with only the Ottawa Senators playing in a back-to-back scenario, so there will some rested teams ready to put on a show. Let's get started with some picks, shall we? 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 Henrik Lundqvist FD - $8600 DK - $8000 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 15.4 DK - 3.85 I have a personal rule that states that I do not use a visiting goalie in cash games unless I absolutely have to. Well, this is one of those rare occasions where there are three road favorites and one slight home favorite for the four-game slate, but I am not even considering using Halak against the Stars. Enter King Henrick who is 6-1 with a no-decision in his last eight games and he earned a shutout against the Sens in New York on November 19th. The Senators, who are 1-8-1 in their last ten games(five losses in a row) just lost to the Sabres and now they get to travel back home and play again tonight. They are ranked 23rd offensively(2.71 goals per game) while scoring zero goals in three of their last five games, so lock and load King Henrik in all formats this evening folks. Also Consider: Tuukka Rask (BOS) CENTERS Tyler Seguin FD - $8100 DK - $7600 Opponent - NYI Proj Pts FD - 14.69 DK - 4.38 Center is a nasty position today, but it's a small slate and we will take what is given to us. This superstar center has only a single assist in his last four games, but during that time, he has fired an insane 25 shots on goal and he leads all centers with 132 shots this season. Seguin is as safe as anyone in the league...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/12/17 Welcome back hockey fans. The week rolls on with a big nine-game slate on Tuesday with four teams(COL, WSH, FLA, CAR) playing their second of a back to back. Let's jump right in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position and don't forget to grab a copy of my daily cheatsheet listed in the comments and the chatroom.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Sergei Bobrovsky FD - $8800 DK - $8200 Opponent - EDM Proj Pts FD - 15.62 DK - 3.9 On the surface, this is somewhat of a dangerous spot as the Oilers offense ranks middle of the pack and has scored four or more goals in five of their last 12 games but hear me out. First of all, the Blue Jackets are big -170 favorites at home as the Oilers will be finishing off a three-game road trip and this is also their game in four nights. Then consider they will be facing a Blue Jackets team that ranks 3rd overall in defense and one of the best goalies in the league in Sergei Bobrovsky who has won seven of his last 10 games with an elite .938 save % and three shutouts. Roll with Bob in all formats. Marc-Andre Fleury FD - $7800 DK - $7800 Opponent - CAR Proj Pts FD - 15.86 DK - 3.97 Fleury was activated off injured reserve on Sunday and is set to take back his #1 role between the pipes for the Golden Knights. He gets a nice spot tonight vs. the Carolina Hurricanes who rank 23rd overall on offense and have been struggling lately losing seven of their last nine games(not counting Monday night game) while scoring just an average of 2.3 goals per game. They will also be playing the second of a back to on the road after a late game in Anaheim...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/11/17 Welcome back hockey fans. On a normally quiet day in fantasy hockey, we get a decent six-game slate that includes five Top 10 offenses and five bottom 10 defenses giving us a ton of options to help build our lineups. Let's dig in and take a look at a few of the top options at each position and don't forget to grab a copy of my cheatsheet in the chat or comments section.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Henrik Lundqvist FD - $8600 DK - $8100 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 15.84 DK - 3.96 There are currently no odds out for this game at the time of writing this article but Lundqvist is my top goalie on a slate with limited options to get excited about. He once again got off to a slow start this season but like he has so many times, has bounced back nicely getting the Rangers back into the race before Christmas. He has only picked up a win in six of his last 10 starts but has been above average with a .932 save % while facing just shy of 31 shots per game. He is getting to face a dangerous Stars team at the right time as they have struggled over the last week dropping three straight games while scoring just five goals. Fire up King Henrik in all formats. **Update - Ondrej Pavelec is making the start for the Rangers. This gives the slate a little more of a GPP feel and I now trust Hellebuyck the most** Connor Hellebuyck FD - $7700 DK - $8300 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 15.04 DK - 3.76 I have been a fan of Hellebuyck all season and he has delivered with a 15-3-4 record but will be a GP only play tonight as he has struggled recently. He has won five of his...
