Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/9/17 Happy Saturday daily fantasy hockey fans. We have a big 12-game slate today with one afternoon game featuring the St. Louis visiting Detroit to face the Red Wings but we will be concentrating on the 11-game main slate for fantasy purposes. There are four teams(CBJ, NYR, NJ, VEG) playing on  back to back, two other teams(CGY, OTT) playing their third game in four nights and on top of that, the Flames and Islanders are also playing their fourth game of the week(Isles having played all four on the road). Let's now jump in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position and don't forget to grab a copy of my cheatsheet in the comments and chatroom. 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 Jonathan Quick FD - $8800 DK - $8300 Opponent - CAR Proj Pts FD - 17.97 DK - 4.49 Quick continued his hot streak on Tuesday night vs. the Wild as he picked up his fifth straight win while allowing two or fewer goals in each game. He has been a huge reason the Kings sit as the #1 defense this season and the only real issue lately with rostering him in GPP formats is the limited upside as he has only faced an average of 25 shots over the last 10 games. That could change tonight as the Hurricanes come to town and lead the league with an average of 35.1 shot on goal per game but rank way down in 25th when looking at overall offense. The Kings are -145 favorites and all things considered, Quick can be considered in all formats. Martin Jones FD - $8800 DK - $8200 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 14.75 DK - 3.69 Aaron Dell FD - $7900 DK - $8000 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 15.31 DK - 3.83 It honestly doesn't matter who starts...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/8/17 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another exciting day of NHL action here at DFSR. Today, we have five games in total, which isn't a big slate by any means, but there are some nice picks in store for us, so let's get started, 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 Cory Schneider FD - $8300 DK - $7900 Opponent - CBJ Proj Pts FD - 16.42 DK - 4.1 Let's start off with a veteran tender who has always been a good and sometimes great goalie, but he's been a victim of playing on some awful teams for most of his career. This year has been a huge exception so far as the Devils just passed the Blue Jackets for first place in the Metropolitan Division after defeating them 4-1 in Columbus two nights ago with Schneider stopping 41 of 42 shots. Well, tonight is a rematch between these two teams and the Devils have a good shot of sweeping the home and home series as the Jackets are ranked 24th in offense(2.75 goals per game) and Schneider is 4-1-1 with only two goals allowed in his last two games and 11 in his last six. Lock him and load him in all formats folks. Braden Holtby FD - $9100 DK - $8200 Opponent - NYR Proj Pts FD - 13.82 DK - 3.45 While he is a great goalie playing at home this evening, Holtby has a very tough matchup as the Rangers are ranked 6th offensively while scoring 3.33 goals per game. This means that he should go under the radar today which makes him a very attractive GPP play as he is 4-1 in his last four games with a .932 save % in his last two victories. Look for the Capitals' surging offense to give Holtby some goal support this evening and he could help you win a tournament...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/7/17 Welcome back to another exciting night of daily fantasy hockey. After a smaller four-game slate last night we are gifted with a much larger nine-game slate tonight. There are three teams(CGY, PHI, OTT) playing the second of a back to back game on the road and third game in four nights and while there are five Top 10 offenses in action, there are also seven of the Top 10 defenses going. Let's dive in and break down the top picks 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.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Jonathan Quick FD - $8800 DK - $8100 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 14.76 DK - 3.69 Quick has returned to top form after struggling for some time and has won five straight starts and while he didn't face 30 shots once in that time stopped 118 of 125 shots for an elite .944 save percentage. Tonight he gets an elite matchup vs. the Senators who after snapping their seven-game losing streak got back to their losing ways dropping their last game 5-0 to the Jets. They rank mid-pack offensively but have only scored 15 goals over their last nine games(1.7 per game) going into Wednesday night in Anaheim and will now be playing a back to back in Cali facing the league's #1 defense in the Kings. Quick is an excellent core play in cash games and can also be considered in GPP formats. Andrei Vasilevskiy FD - $9300 DK - $8300 Opponent - COL Proj Pts FD - 15.79 DK - 3.95 If you are at all concerned about the lack of shots and upside for Quick, may I interest you in Andrei Vasilevskiy? He has been tremendous lately winning seven of his last 10 games with an elite .943 save % while facing an average of 31.7 shots per game. Tonight, Vasilevskiy and the Bolts are huge -260 favorites as the...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/6/17 Welcome back daily fantasy hockey fans. After a busy night in the National Hockey League last night, we are back with a smaller four-game slate with just one team(ANH) playing on a back to back. Let's dive 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.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Frederik Andersen FD - $8600 DK - $8200 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 15.64 DK - 3.91 I actually feel rather comfortable rostering this Danish netminder today as the Flames are ranked 18th offensively while scoring only 2.89 goals per game and they have been playing some awful hockey lately with only two wins in their last seven games. Andersen is third in the league with 15 wins and first with three shutouts and after his last five games were on the road with a 3-2 record and 12 goals against, he returns to his home barn this evening in which I predict it will be a lopsided game in the Leafs favor. Fire Andersen up with confidence in all formats my friends. Also Consider: Braden Holtby (WSH) GPP formats only. CENTERS Auston Matthews FD - $7900 DK - $7900 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 16.51 DK - 4.72 While everyone and their ancestors will be all over Connor McDavid tonight(which isn't a bad idea), I like pivoting to this guy at cheaper prices against the Flames and their eighth-worst defense(3.26 goals allowed per game) who have allowed 12 goals in their last two games. Yikes! Although he didn't record a point last game, the young star fired four shots on goal to give him 20 in his last six games and he was on a four-game point streak prior to that. Matthews has been offering the safety for cash games and the upside that we are looking for in our GPP lineups this evening....
