Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/24/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/24/17 Welcome back hockey fans. After a huge 12 game slate last night, we get just four games tonight but that doesn't mean we will be short on fantasy value.

MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIES Jonathan Bernier FD - $8600 DK - $8300 Opponent - WPG Proj Pts FD - 17.03 DK - 4.26 I wasn't totally sold on my goalie selection until I watched the Jets play the Kings late last night. The Kings won 5-2. Winnipeg cannot stay out of the penalty box and they are a complete mess of a hockey team right now, especially on the defensive end. They have a couple of snipers who can score goals, but that doesn't matter when they are short-handed for what seems to be for half of the game. Bernier has filled in admirably for John Gibson since he has been injured. He is 6-0-1 in his last seven games with a GAA of 1.54 and a .950 save percentage. The Ducks are tough to beat on home ice and the Jets are ranked 28th on defense so Bernier should have plenty of offensive support and is a great play in all formats this evening. Also Consider: Martin Jones - SJ (GPP) CENTERS Ryan Getzlaf FD - $7800 DK - $6700 Opponent - WPG Proj Pts FD - 15.81 DK - 4.6 As I stated above, the Jets are ranked third worst in the league defensively and the sin bin is where they like to hang out. That's great news for Getzlaf as he gets a lot of attention on the top powerplay unit in Anaheim. The star Canadian center has four assists, two shots and six blocks in his...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/23/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/23/17 Hello out there, we're on the air, it's hockey night tonight. You know the rest. If you don't well.... Happy to be back with you for a giant 12 game slate in daily fantasy hockey. Playoff time is getting closer and teams are gearing up for a final push to lock in their spot for a chance at Lord Stanley's Cup. We can once again expect some high scoring games as eight of the top 10 offenses are in play with eight of the bottom 10 defenses also in action. Let's jump right into the 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! GOALIES Jake Allen FD - $8800 DK - $8300 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 17.92 DK - 4.48 With 12 games and so many big favorites tonight, there isn't going to be one chalky goalie like most nights. That's great news as Jake Allen is in an elite spot at home vs. the struggling Canucks who have lost seven of their last 10 games. The Blues are -225 favorites as they try to hold on to their spot in the playoff picture. Allen has been incredible lately winning six of his last seven starts and only allowing more than two goals against once in that time. Fire up Allen in all formats tonight. Al Montoya FD - $8300 DK - $8300 Opponent - CAR Proj Pts FD - 20.36 DK - 5.09 Montoya made the start for the Habs last game as Carey Price is dealing with a "minor injury". Gotta love the vagueness of the NHL injury reports. At this point, it is still unclear if Price will be back tonight but if the Habs were smart with the playoffs on the horizon, they would sit him out and give him some rest. That would give Montoya another start in a pretty good spot at home vs. a non-playoff team....
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/22/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/22/17 Hello hockey fans and welcome to another day of exciting NHL action at DFSR. We have a tiny three-game slate today with the New York Rangers being the only team playing in back-to-back games. There are some nice plays in store for us today, 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! GOALIES Sergei Bobrovsky FD - $9100 DK - $8300 Opponent - TOR Proj Pts FD - 15.48 DK - 3.87 Today we have only three games and four of the six teams in action are ranked in the top 10 in the league offensively. Goalie Bob's opponent, the Toronto Maple Leafs are one of those teams as they are ranked 7th overall in that category. A tiny slate like this is more suited to GPP's, but if you are like me and insist on playing cash games no matter what, then we need to dig deep and find some kind of "safety." The Blue Jackets are currently listed as a -155 home favorite, which tells us a lot as they are facing the 7th ranked offense this evening. Bobrovsky has been nothing short of sensational recently as he has won seven games in a row. During those seven games, he has recorded a 1.14 GAA and a .963 save % with three shutouts. The superstar tender is an elite play in all formats this evening. *Update - Joonas Korpisalo is likely starting for the Blue Jackets and is a nice GPP play today and should see around 30 shots against the Leafs. * Also Consider: Thomas Greiss (Large GPP only) CENTERS John Tavares FD - $8400 DK - $7400 Opponent - NYR Proj Pts FD - 14.44 DK - 4.21 Hello Johnny T and welcome back to this column. Could you imagine how even more awesome he could be if he had better talent surrounding him? Regardless, this guy has...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/21/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/21/17 Welcome back for another big Tuesday night in the National Hockey League. We have 11 games tonight with nine teams opening as -150 favorites or greater. This is great news for daily fantasy as we can expect a high scoring night and with so many games, it should help spread out the ownership. Let's jump right into the 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.

If you want to see the numbers behind our projections, create linueps with a single click, or research as deeply as your heart desires, click the button below to test out yourself. MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIES Carey Price FD - $9400 DK - $8500 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 19.65 DK - 4.91 This guy is good in case you didn't know and his team is starting to score goals as they are approaching playoff time. What does this mean? Fading Carey Price is a dangerous proposition. He is expensive, but we just have to find value elsewhere. The star tender has won eight of his last nine starts and I dug a little deeper into his head to head stats against the Red Wings and I found some very convincing information. Price and the Habs have played the Red Wings three times this year and they won two out of three with two shutouts for Price and only two goals allowed. That is impressive, to say the least. Montreal is listed as -230 favorites today according to Vegas and Price is an elite play in all formats. **Update - Al Montoya us getting the start for the Habs tonight** Al Montoya FD - $8200 DK - $8400 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 20.21 DK - 5.05 Corey Crawford FD - $8900 DK - $8500 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 19.24 DK - 4.81 On a huge slate like this, it is okay in my opinion to give you two goalies who are huge favorites. My reasoning is the fact that the ownership percentages shouldn't be as lopsided. Crawford and the Hawks welcome the Canucks and their awful 28th ranked...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/19/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 3/19/17 Hello fellow hockey fans and welcome to another exciting day of NHL action at DFSR. We have a few high powered offenses in action today, as well as a few weak defenses that we can try and pick on. There are seven total games today with two separate slates on both sites, so we will be giving you a variety of picks for both slates. 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! GOALIES Sergei Bobrovsky FD - $8900 DK - $8500 Opponent - NJ Proj Pts FD - 15.93 DK - 3.98 Let's start with Bob the goalie who has been spectacular between the pipes lately. The Jackets' offense has also been scoring a few goals which make his job a little easier. The Vezina trophy candidate has won his last six starts and he's posted eye-opening numbers with three shutouts and a .962 save %. He recorded his league leading 38th win in his last game while stopping 33 of 34 shots against the Panthers. This next part is even more convincing. Bob and the Jackets play the Devils who he earned consecutive shutouts against on March 5th and 7th. He stopped all 53 shots he faced in those two games. The Jackets are currently listed as a -155 road favorite and look for Bobrovsky to handle the Devils and their 28th ranked offense. Roster him with confidence in all formats today. Scott Darling FD - $8600 DK - $8400 Opponent - COL Proj Pts FD - 20.38 DK - 5.09 I will mention shortly how awful Colorado is on defense, well they are even worst on offense. They are ranked dead last in the NHL with 1.93 goals scored per game. This team would lose to most AHL teams right now and they are coming off of a 5-1 loss yesterday to a weak Detroit team. Darling is one of the best...
