GOALIE Ben Bishop FD - $8500 DK - $7900 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 18.53 DK - 4.63 With all the top skaters on this slate and no clear goaltender in an elite spot, I will be taking the value route tonight with an(IMO) underpriced option in Ben Bishop. The win totals aren't where we would like them as he hasn't received much help offensively this season but went into the All-Star break with a 16-12-2 record and a .921 save %. He came out of the break hot as well making all 30 saves en route to a shutout of the Sabres on Tuesday. Tonight, he will be at home again as -135 favorites to the Wild who did go into the break hot but do rank outside the Top 20 on offense overall. Bishop is my top goalie and a great play in all formats. Also Consider: Matt Murray(PIT) who is a huge -250 home favorite against the Senators and provides big upside facing just over 33 shots per game on the season   CENTERS Evgeni Malkin FD - $8400 DK - $6300 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 17.08 DK - 4.97 The Penguins are my top priority tonight as they get an elite home matchup against the Senators who rank dead last in defense and have been even worse on the road allowing over four goals per game. What jumped off the page immediately when analyzing this slate was the price on Malkin on DraftKings as he sits in the low $6K range, $1,500 less than Crosby. Malkin has even out-produced Crosby lately as he comes in with 13 points(3 on PP) in his last 10 games with 31 shot on goal for an average of 4.5 DraftKings/16.1 FanDuel points per game. All things considered, Malkin is a core play for me on DraftKings while I will likely split he and Crosby on...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 1/31/19 Welcome back hockey fans.

Philadelphia Flyers @ Boston Bruins The first game of the night gives us a battle between two Eastern Conference teams in different positions when looking at the current playoff picture. The Bruins are just one point out of third in the Atlantic division and lead the wildcard standings while the Flyers are way down in 13th in the East. The Bruins are big favorites in this one and it makes sense as they own the second-best home record(17-7-2) in the East thanks to a Top 5 overall defense while the Flyers sit outside the Top 20 in both offense(22nd) and defense(28th). The Flyers have been much better as of late as they are riding a five-game win streak but offensively, I will be looking towards the Bruins for the most part unless you want to play the contrarian game in GPP formats. David Pastrnak FD - $8100 DK - $7800 Opponent - PHI Proj Pts FD - 18.08 DK - 5.52 Pastrnak is easily my top play on this slate as he checks off all the boxes. I already talked about the terrific matchup as he faces a Flyers team that ranks 28th on defense and while he has been up and down lately he does come in with points in five of his last six games with 33 shots over his last 10 games. He is a player you can feel comfortable paying up for in all formats as he provides a high floor with an elite 11.9 shots/60 and 21.5 iCorsi/60 and a high ceiling averaging 9.6 scoring chances per 60. If you are stacking, my first choice is Patrice Bergeron at center or Brad Marchand at winger and you can also stack him with Jake DeBrusk who has been skating with that trio on the top powerplay unit. David Krejci FD - $5500 DK - $5000 Opponent - PHI Proj Pts FD - 10.62 DK - 3.06 On a small slate, we are going to need some...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 1/23/18 Welcome back hockey fans. Tonight we have another small slate with just six games on the schedule and it also marks the last slate before the All-Star Break. Let's dig in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position and then be sure to grab a copy of my DFS NHL Cheatsheet where I highlight all my top plays. Want even more?

We've got you completely covered. GOALIE Carey Price FD - $8600 DK - $8200 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 14.97 DK - 3.74 Price was very inconsistent early on this season going 7-7-4 in his first 18 starts but has been coming on strong as of late. He has won three straight and six of his last nine starts while allowing just 15 goals and recording an impressive .948 save %. There is no line on this game at the moment but the Habs should end up heavy favorites as they are in a great spot at home against a Coyotes team that is playing on a back to back and third game in four nights on the road while ranking 28th overall on offense. All things considered, Price is my top goalie in all formats. Also Consider: Marc-Andre Fleury(VGK) in GPP formats as he has been elite at home with a 15-5-3 record, .923 save %, and five shutouts   CENTERS Ryan O'Reilly FD - $6900 DK - $6600 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 15.38 DK - 4.47 At the center position, I will be going with a more balanced approach tonight and it starts with the red-hot Ryan O'Reilly. He enters tonight with points in five straight and 12 of his last 14 games and has also provided some safety averaging over 20 minutes of ice-time and 3.2 shots per game in that span. The Ducks do rank 12th overall on defense but have given up over 34 shots per game and have struggled mightily losing 13 of their last 15 games. At a price under $7K, I will have sharers of O'Reilly in all formats. Stack with: Vladimir Tarasenko, Patrick Maroon Max Domi FD - $5800 DK - $5500 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 11.93 DK...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 1/22/19 Welcome back hockey fans. Not our usual big Tuesday night slate with just five games on the schedule but there is definitely no shortage of good plays from a DFS perspective. Let's jump in and take a look at a few of them at each position. Then be sure to check out our all-new optimizer tool where you can create up to 50 lineups.

GOALIE David Rittich FD - $8200 DK - $8200 Opponent - CAR Proj Pts FD - 13.86 DK - 3.46 The goalie position is ugly tonight on this five-game slate but we can't just leave it blank so buckle up! The Flames are the biggest favorite(-180) on the slate and despite this being the highest total(6.5), David Rittich stands out as the top goalie option. He has been easily the best goalie for the Flames with an 18-4-4 record, 2.49 GAA, and .917 save % and has been even better on home ice from a win/loss perspective as he has yet to lose in regulation(8-0-4) in the Saddledome. Carolina has been better as of late winning eight of their last 11 games but do rank 27th in overall offense and have been slightly worse than .500 on the road. Rittich is my top goalie in all formats tonight but can't say I am in love it pushing me more in a GPP direction tonight.   CENTERS Connor McDavid FD - $9100 DK - $8000 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 19.53 DK - 5.72 I haven't mentioned McDavid much this season as I have been on a value train at the center position as of late. Tonight with the lack of high-end goaltending and lack of high-end centers I think it is crucial to get McDavid in our lineups. He is an absolute beast and comes in with 14 points in his last 10 games and is one of just six players who have topped 70 points on the season. He has also seen a bit of an uptick in shots lately with 30 in those last 10 games and also leads all forwards on this slate with 22.8 minutes of ice-time per game on the season. To top it off, he gets a terrific matchup against the Red Wings who have given up nine goals in their last two games and...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 1/17/19 Welcome back hockey fans. Thursday brings us seven games on the schedule with just one team(BOS) playing on a back to back but they also join the Blues and Wild as teams playing a third game in four nights.

GOALIE Robin Lehner FD - $8500 DK - $8300 Opponent - NJ Proj Pts FD - 18.74 DK - 4.68 I never in a million years would have thought of leading off an article with an Islanders goalie but here we are. Lehner is having a tremendous season and has been a major reason why the John Tavaresless Islanders sit third in their division at the moment. He comes into tonight red-hot with a 9-1 record over his last 10 games with an elite .951 save % and with that now leads the league in both GAA(2.16) and save %(.928) and only sits further down the list in wins(13) as he splits time with Thomas Greiss. Tonight, he and the Isles get a terrific matchup as -150 home favorites against a Devils team that is 5-16-3 on the road while scoring just 2.5 goals per game. The decision is a bit closer on DraftKings where Lehner is the most expensive option but on FanDuel he is a lock for me in cash games as the sixth most expensive option at the position. Devan Dubnyk FD - $8800 DK - $7700 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 19.52 DK - 4.88 I will preface this write up by saying Dubnyk is not having his best season as he is currently sitting with his lowest save %(.911) since the 2013-14 season. What brings him into the fold tonight is the matchup as the Wild are -180 home favorites as the struggling Ducks come to town having lost 12 straight games while scoring just 20 total goals(1.7 per game). As the third most expensive goalie on FanDuel, Dubnyk is easily just a GPP option tonight but...
