MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Pekka Rinne FD - $8900 DK - $8000 Opponent - WPG Proj Pts FD - 19.86 DK - 4.97 What makes the goalie position tough tonight is that most of the top goalies are playing on the road and vs. some stiff competition. Enter Pekka Rinne who is at home tonight where he and the Preds have been lights out all season. Rinne has also been elite most recently no matter where he plays with an 8-1-1 record with a .941 save % and has also added two shutouts. The Preds are currently -155 favorites tonight and while the Jets have been a Top 10 offense overall, they have not been as powerful on the road averaging just 2.5 goals per game away from "The Peg". All things considered, Rinne is the top option between the pipes tonight and can be considered in all formats. Carey Price FD - $8600 DK - $8000 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 18.3 DK - 4.58 After a hot start upon returning from injury, Price has faltered a bit losing four of his last five games but still has some impressive numbers. Over those 10 starts since getting back in the lineup he has won six with an excellent .935 save %, one shutout, all while facing over 30 shots per game. The Habs are road favorites tonight leaving him a GPP only play but they get a nice matchup...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/18/17 Hello and welcome to another day of daily fantasy hockey here at DFSR. Today, we have a small slate with only five games in action, but there are still some exciting games in store for us, so let's not waste any more time and dive right into some of my favorite 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 Cory Schneider FD - $8200 DK - $8100 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 14.96 DK - 3.74 This isn't an easy position today, but Schneider looks like the "safest" option as the Ducks are ranked third-worst offensively while scoring only 2.61 goals per game. The veteran tender has been sharp lately with a 2-0-1 record and only five goals allowed in those three games and he has a record of 5-2-1 in his last eight. The Devils should be fired up tonight as their superstar winger Taylor Hall will be back in action, so look for a Devils victory and fire Schneider up in your cash game lineups. Tuukka Rask FD - $8200 DK - $7700 Opponent - CBJ Proj Pts FD - 15.25 DK - 3.81 Here we have another veteran who has been sharp lately as he is 5-1-1 in his last seven games while allowing only 13 goals during that time. Tonight, the Blue Jackets and their 21st ranked offense(2.71 goals scored per game) travel to town and Vegas has the Bruins listed as -135 favorites to win. While I don't like targeting goalies in cash games when Sergei Bobrovsky is in the other net, I will be seriously considering Rask for my tournament lineups. CENTERS Nathan MacKinnon FD - $7800 DK - $6500 Opponent - PIT Proj Pts FD - 11.91 DK - 3.55 We have two elite centers in action today in Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby, but when we dig a little deeper, we find that this young superstar...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/17/17 Welcome back daily fantasy hockey fans. Another quiet Sunday on tap with just four games but there are a ton of fantasy options all the way from goalie to defense. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position and then head to the comments section or chatroom and grab a copy of my cheatsheet. Hockey is back and with it come our NHL projections which help inform these picks every night.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIE Marc-Andre Fleury FD - $7800 DK - $8200 Opponent - FLA Proj Pts FD - 18.05 DK - 4.51 After receiving a hard-luck loss in overtime in his first game back(saved 35 of 37 shots), Fleury faced his former team in an emotional game on Thursday night. He got the better of the Penguins in a hard fought 2-1 win where he saved 24 shots and has now saved 59 of 62 shots he has faced since returning from injury. He is not confirmed for Sunday night at this point but I would be shocked if he isn't back between the pipes and he gets an excellent matchup to boot. The Panthers, at one point, had a Top 10 offense but have struggled a ton lately and have dropped down to the bottom third after scoring just 21 goals over their last eight games, six of which they have lost. On a small slate, Fleury is my top choice and safe in all formats. Corey Crawford FD - $9100 DK - $7900 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 15.22 DK - 3.8 It's very rare on a small four-game slate like this that we get multiple goalies in great spots but here we are. Corey Crawford has been tremendous lately winning four straight starts while holding opponents to two or fewer goals in each and has also won eight of his last 10 games while posting an impressive .936 save percentage. He now gets a plus matchup at...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 12/16/17 Welcome back daily fantasy hockey fans. Another Saturday, and another big slate that includes an early afternoon game between the Oilers and Wild and a late afternoon game between the Rangers and Bruins. For the purpose of this article, we will be concentrating on the nine-game main slate starting at 7:00 p.m. ET tonight and the game of the night will be the Canadiens and Senators playing outdoor in Ottawa. Don't expect a ton of scoring in that game however as it is expected to be -16° Celsius(3° Fahrenheit). Let's dig in and take a look at some of the top picks 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 Matt Murray FD - $8500 DK - $8400 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 19.75 DK - 4.94 Murray returned after a nearly a month on the shelf with an injury and while he was a hard-luck loser to the Golden Knights, was impressive stopping 24 of 26 shots. He was bested by his former teammate Marc-Ander Fleury and now moves on to Arizona where he is a big -170 favorite facing the Coyotes who have struggled lately losing five straight while scoring just five goals and remain ranked right at the bottom of the league when looking at the offensive rankings. I fully expect the Penguins to get back on the horse offensively giving Murray some support and with that, he is a top play in all formats. Brian Elliott FD - $7800 DK - $7600 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 15.84 DK - 3.96 As a Flyer fan, I feel I am stretching my positive vibes a little too far here but hear me out. Elliott has been a huge factor in the team turning their season around and he comes into tonight having won five straight games while holding opponents to two or fewer goals in each contest for...
