Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/11/17 Welcome back for another night of daily fantasy hockey. There was a lot going on last night and if that Vegas game didn't get your blood pumping, I am not sure what will. After an emotional pre-game ceremony, they came out absolutely flying, scoring four goals in the first period and beating the Coyotes 5-2 to extend their winning streak to three to begin the new franchise. Tonight we get a smaller five-game slate but it's not short of some juicy matchups. Let's dig in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Jonathan Quick FD - $9000 DK - $8200 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 17.05 DK - 4.26 Tonight I will be siding with both California teams goaltenders and it starts with Jonathan Quick who is a -140 favorite as the Flames come to town. He has impressed to start the season winning both starts, allowing just one goal with a .983 save % and one shutout. He now faces a Flames team that routinely ranks in the middle of the pack when looking at offensive numbers and his playing their third game in five days and second on the road in California. Quick is my #1 option in all formats today. John Gibson FD - $8300 DK - $8300 Opponent - NYI Proj Pts FD - 17.33 DK - 4.33 John Gibson has been a little more inconsistent to start the 2017/18 campaign as he has gone 1-1-1 with a 3.05 GAA and .906 save % but he gets a plus matchup and is a great GPP play. He faces an Islanders team that struggled on the road last year and has already lost their first game away from the Island this season. They have also struggled offensively with just over 2.5 goals per game and when looking for upside...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/10/17 Welcome back for another night of daily fantasy hockey. The first week of the NHL will conclude tonight and it has been an exciting one, to say the least. The scoring has been up so far and we have already witnessed six hat tricks including two from superstar Alex Ovechkin who did it in back to back games to open the season. It will be hard to top that action but tonight's seven-game slate gives s some hope. Let's jump in and take a look at the top picks for tonight. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Ben Bishop FD - $8700 DK - $8300 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 18.27 DK - 4.57 The Stars had a scare in the first game of the season as Bishop was hit in the mask with a puck and suffered a concussion. He ended up only missing one game, making it through the concussion protocol flawlessly, and is expected to be back in between the pipes tonight at home. It is a tough night for goalies and Bishop and the Stars are currently the biggest favorites at -160 over the Red Wings. Roll him out in all formats tonight. Marc-Andre Fleury FD - $8100 DK - $7800 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 16.63 DK - 4.16 I am not sure anyone saw the expansion Vegas Golden Knights starting the season off undefeated but here we are. If there is one player who has been the key thus far it would be netminder Marc-Ande Fleury. He opened the season stopping 46 shots in a 1-0 win over the Stars and then backed it up with a 28 save performance in a 1-0 win over the Coyotes. Even more impressive is the fact he did so on the road and tonight he will get a chance to showcase that talent at home in the first...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/9/17 Hello everyone and Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canadians. Welcome to another awesome day of NHL action at DFSR. Today we have a split slate on tap, with three games during the day and three in the evening. 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.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW!   GOALIE EARLY Tuukka Rask FD - $8300 DK - $8300 Opponent - COL Proj Pts FD - 18.43 DK - 4.61 We start off the early slate with the Bruins #1 goalie who won his first and only game this season, while stopping 26 of 29 shots at home vs. the Nashville Predators. Today, Boston welcomes the Colorado Avalanche to town. The Av's were ranked 21st in the league last season in goals score per game (2.50.) They beat the Rangers 4-2 in their first game, but they got back to their usual losing ways on Saturday as they lost 4-1 to the New Jersey Devils. The Bruins were ranked 9th in goals allowed per game (2.55) last season and they should have their way with the Avalanche this afternoon as Vegas currently has them listed as massive -210 favorites. Rask is an elite play in all formats. Also Consider: Jake Allen (Stl) LATE Cam Talbot FD - $8300 DK - $8400 Opponent - WPG Proj Pts FD - 18.67 DK - 4.67 The Oilers' workhorse tender had a rare blowup in his last outing as he allowed three goals on seven shots before he was taken out of the game. His third goal allowed was a bad one as he didn't have the corner of the net covered and the puck slid under his pad. He very rarely has two bad outings in a row and he should be very motivated to bounce back this evening against the visiting Jets. Like most goalies, he plays better in his home barn and last...

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Cam Talbot FD - $8300 DK - $8500 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 13.9 DK - 3.48 How good did the Oilers look in game one? To me, they looked like a team that will not be satisfied with just making it o the playoffs this season and it starts between the pipes. He somehow finished 4th in the Vezina voting last year but, in my opinion, should have been higher after posting 42 wins, a 2.39 GAA, and .919 Save %. It's tough when competing against the likes of Price, Bobrovsky, and Holtby but he is an elite goalie and even comes at a discount on FanDuel. He stopped all 27 shots on opening night and now gets another tasty division matchup vs. the Canucks who ranked second last in offense last season and will be playing their first game of the season tonight. I normally try and target a goalie playing at home for cash games but will make an exception tonight. Matt Murray FD - $8900 DK - $7800 Opponent - NAS Proj Pts FD - 18.87 DK - 4.72 It's been a rough start to the season for Murray and the Stanley Cup Champion Penguins but I think this gives us an opportunity to get him at a lower ownership making him a top GPP play tonight. He is the top projected goalie in the system and was an instrumental piece in the Penguins success last year. With Marc-Andre Fleury out of the picture, he will be relied upon even more this year and the coach is showing him the trust by getting him back in the fire tonight. I don't think you need to play him in cash games but like I said, if he is going to be lower owned, he is a top GPP play.   Also consider Antti Raanta(ARI) and...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 10/6/17 Hello hockey fans and welcome to nice little three-game slate on Friday. Las Vegas is playing their first ever game and we have some nice offensive production expected in all three games. Let's dive right in and check out 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! GOALIE Sergei Bobrovsky FD - $8800 DK - $8200 Opponent - NYI Proj Pts FD - 17.75 DK - 4.44 Three game slates can sometimes be tricky for cash games but tonight we are blessed with last years Vezina Trophy winner. Bobrovsky also ended up third in the Hart Trophy voting behind McDavid and Crosby as he led the league with an elite 2.06 GAA and .931 save % while recording 41 wins for the Blue Jackets. The matchup is not the best he will see all season as the Islanders ranked 10th in overall offense last season(2.91 goals per game) but he is at home adn the Jackets open as -160 favorites. I will be rolling him out in all formats. Ben Bishop FD - $8800 DK - $8400 Opponent - VEG Proj Pts FD - 20.33 DK - 5.08 Bishop is the most expensive option on both sites tonight but the Stars open their season at home as huge -240 favorites to the expansion Vegas Golden Knights. Bishop is coming off a down season where he posted a .910 save % between two teams(Lighting & Kings), his lowest in any season where he played high volume games. He gets a fresh start on a new team in 2017/18 and should be able to bounce back and it starts tonight vs. a sub-optimal Knights lineup that lacks a star player on offense and has the look of a bottom feeder for a few years. It is probably best to reserve Bishop for GPP's tonight considering we get last year's Vezina Trophy winner at the same price on FanDuel...
