Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/22/18 Welcome back hockey fans. I am excited to finally be back writing hockey after a week away at the Daytona 500 and a huge thanks to my partner in crime, Ryan Couckuyt, who filled in for me while I was gone. Tonight, we have a big 11-game slate with three teams(CGY, OTT, DAL) playing back to back and five teams(OTT, CGY, LA, NSH, WAS) playing a third game in four nights. 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. 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. It’s a set of tools well beyond anything we’ve ever had, and something we feel will help our users *ahem* tackle the NFL season.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Frederik Andersen FD - $8700 DK - $8100 Opponent - NYI Proj Pts FD - 18.67 DK - 4.67 I will be taking on some risk with my goalies tonight and it starts with Frederik Andersen. The risk is the fact the Islanders have a Top 10 offense this season even on the road but I am not too concerned as Andersen has been playing terrific lately. He has won five of his last six starts and has gone 7-2 in his last 10 games played with two shutouts and an elite .934 save %. On top of that, he has huge upside thanks to seeing over 36 shots against per game. The Leafs are huge -225 favorites tonight and will counter the Islanders with a Top 10 home defense. Roll out Andersen in all formats. Antti Raanta FD - $7500 DK - $7300 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 15.74 DK - 3.94 The risk in this pick is the fact that the Coyotes sit in the basement of the NHL with just 17 wins and 44 points on the season. There is, however, a lot to like about Raanta tonight and it starts with the fact he has been playing at a near elite level recently. Over his last nine starts, he has gone 6-2-1, with a .938 save %...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/21/18 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another day of NHL action here at DFSR. We have a tiny three-game slate in store for us this evening, but it shall not be short of excitement as always, so let's get started with some 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! GOALIE Marc-Andre Fleury FD - $8700 DK - $8400 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 15.35 DK - 3.84 Let's start things off with the veteran tender who has won three of his last four games while allowing eight goals during that span. Fleury has had a terrific season so far as he comes into this one with a 19-7-2 record to go along with a stifling .932 save %, two shutouts, and a 2.07 GAA. The Flames own the 21st ranked offense while the Golden Knights are ranked second defensively and these teams have already met once this season in Calgary with Fleury allowing only two goals in a 4-2 Vegas victory. All things considered, Fleury is a solid play and my top goalie in all formats.   CENTERS Erik Haula FD - $6400 DK - $6300 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 12.48 DK - 3.55 It is a tiny slate, so our options are thin this evening, but this guy is no slouch by any means as he centers the #2 line and the #1 powerplay unit for the Golden Knights and their 2nd ranked offense. In his last three games, the veteran has a goal, an assist, and 12 shots, so he has a decent amount of safety an upside that we are looking for in all formats against the Flames and their 15th ranked defense. Stack with: David Perron, James Neal Derick Brassard FD - $6100 DK - $5000 Opponent - CHI Proj Pts FD - 11.85 DK - 3.42 This guy has been one of the few bright spots...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/20/18 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another exciting day of NHL action. Today we have nine games on tap with the action starting at 7 pm et. There are a few potentially high scoring games in store for us, so 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.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Connor Hellebuyck FD - $8200 DK - $8300 Opponent - LA Proj Pts FD - 20.33 DK - 5.08 The Jets are enjoying a storybook-like season and this young man has played a huge role in their success as he has a 31-8-8 record and is 22-3-2 at home with five shutouts, a .928 save %, and a 2.11 GAA. The Jets have outscored their opponents 13-3 in their last two games with this guy being between the pipes for both and the Kings own the league's 18th ranked offense, so with all of these things considered, Hellebuyck is an elite play and my top goalie in all formats. Alex Lyon FD - $7300 DK - $8100 Opponent - MON Proj Pts FD - 17.95 DK - 4.49 The Flyers acquired Petr Mzarek from the Wings yesterday, but he won't be ready yet, Brian Elliot is on the IR and Michael Neuvirth is now injured, so it's next man up for the Flyers. I would probably mention my 12-year-old nephew who plays goal for the AA Brandon Wheat Kings here because the Canadiens are just plain awful this season and they're ranked dead last in goals scored on the road with only 2.18 per game. Lyon allowed only one goal on 26 shots in relief of Neuvirth during a 7-4 victory over the Rangers last game, so in GPP formats, Lyon looks like a terrific pivot option today. Also Consider: Keith Kinkaid(NJ) GPP formats only CENTERS Auston Matthews FD - $7900 DK - $7400 Opponent - FLA Proj Pts FD - 16.02 DK -...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/19/18 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another day of NHL action here at DFSR. Today, we have six games in total with both sites splitting their slates into three games for each and Fanduel is offering an all day slate as well. The first game starts at 1 pm et. and it looks like it is going to be an interesting day, so let's take a look at 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 EARLY Braden Holtby FD - $8900 DK - $8400 Opponent - BUF Proj Pts FD - 14.38 DK - 3.6 Philipp Grubauer FD - $7700 DK - $8300 Opponent - BUF Proj Pts FD - 14.94 DK - 3.74 It is difficult to gauge who is going to start this game as this will be the Capitals' first game of a back-to-back, so make sure that you check who is starting tomorrow before you set your lineups. Either goalie hasn't been great lately, but the other options for this slate aren't pretty, to say the least. The Sabres don't really know how to score goals as they're ranked dead last in the league in offense with 2.40 goals per game and they're even worse at home with 2.25 per game. The Capitals are simply on a different level than the Sabres, so on a tiny-slate like this, the Capitals' goalie looks like the best option in all formats. Also Consider: Jaroslav Halak(NYI) GPP formats LATE Pekka Rinne FD - $8800 DK - $8400 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 20.1 DK - 5.02 I recommended this guy last game and the Predators started their backup, but it looks like they will be going with Rinne today as they are about to face the Senators, who are just plain bad at hockey and they own the league's 24th ranked offense. The veteran workhorse has been terrific this...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/18/18 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another day of NHL action here at DFSR. Today, we have seven games in total and while I will be concentrating my writing solely on the main slates on both sites, below each position, you will find a couple of players listed as solid plays for the early slate. 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.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Connor Hellebuyck FD - $8200 DK - $8400 Opponent - FLA Proj Pts FD - 17.93 DK - 4.48 After this young man and the Jets destroyed the Avalanche 6-1 on Friday evening, they welcome the Florida Panthers to town, who will be playing on a back-to-back after playing very late in Calgary on Saturday. Even though the Panthers have scored a few goals lately, they still rank 15th overall in offense and 22nd while playing on the road. Hellebuyck has been sensational this season as he boasts a 30-8-8 record and he's been almost unstoppable at home with a 21-3-2 record, a .928 save %, a 2.12 GAA, and four shutouts. The Jets are currently listed as -195 favorites, so with all of these things considered, "Helly" is an elite play and my top goalie in all formats. Curtis McElhinney FD - $7700 DK - $8100 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 15.25 DK - 3.87 After the Jets' tender, things go way downhill here today, but everyone and their pets will be all over Hellebuyck for the main slate, so let's take a look at this guy, who is about to play the Red Wings and their lowly 26th ranked offense. The Leafs' elder backup has played well this season as he has a 6-4 record with a stifling .932 save % and he has allowed only two goals in his last three games to go along with a shutout. The Leafs can score goals and...
