MAKE NHL and NFL LINEUPS NOW! GOALIES Tuukka Rask FD - $8900 DK - $8400 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 19.85 DK - 4.96 Despite there being 12 games tonight, there are really a limited number of goalies you could trust in all formats. Top goalies in Carey Price and Sergei Bobrovsky are going head to head and the same goes for King Henrik and Braden Holtby. I think all four of those options make excellent GPP plays but Tuukka Rask is definitely in the best spot tonight. The Bruins are home as huge -280 favorites to the Coyotes who rank 27th offensively and sit above only the bottom feeding Avalanche in the standings. Rask has been picking up the wins lately going 6-3 in his last nine starts but has struggled with the save %(.863). I am not all worried tonight, however, as the Bruins have a near 10% advantage when looking at team Corsi which is by the far the biggest I have seen in a few weeks. Roll out Rask with confidence! Ryan Miller FD - $8300 DK - $7800 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 15.46 DK - 3.86 There were definitely a few other options I feel safer about but I am a GPP player and always look to dig deep and take a risk on these big slates. Enter Ryan Miller who has never been mistaken for consistent but can definitely get you some value if you find the right time...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/26/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/26/17 Hello and welcome to another day of fantasy hockey. Like most Sunday slates, this is a weird one as we have a couple of early games, a few mid-afternoon games and a few evening games. Fanduel has an all-day slate and Draftkings has an early only slate. On top of those slates, both sites have their main slates starting at 5 pm eastern. We have seven total games today and you will see that the picks cover the entire day and every slate. There are quite a few teams playing in a back-to-back situation as well as in their third game in four nights, so it will be an interesting day in the NHL world. Let's not waste any more time and dissect this interesting slate to find some great 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 Corey Crawford FD - $8800 DK - $8200 Opponent - STL Proj Pts FD - 13.06 DK - 3.27 I am warning you right now that this not the "safest" day for your cash game lineups at the goalie position. With that being said, after digging a little deeper into the statistics pool, Corey Crawford stood out to me the most today. First of all, St. Louis is coming off of their long bye week and so far this year, most of the other teams have shown a ton of rust while in similar situations. Crawford has won his last two starts and while he allowed three goals in each of those two starts, he made some huge saves and should have a ton of confidence coming into this game. His career record against St. Louis is 15-6-5 with three shutouts which is pretty darned good. Vegas also thinks that St. Louis will be a little sluggish today as the Blackhawks opened as -160 favorites to earn the victory. The Blues are decent on offense, but they only scored three goals in their previous two games. Crawford is...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/25/17 Welcome to another wacky Saturday in DFS hockey. There are eight total games today including a matinee game at 4:00 ET between the Ducks and Kings. Neither site is running an All Day slate but both are offering four-game early slates. The big difference is that DraftKings is also running a seven-game main slate that while FanDuel has a four-game main slate. I guess they are just trying to accommodate as many people as possible. Awwww that's nice of them. Let's look at 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! GOALIES Matthew Murray FD - $9300 DK - $8200 Opponent - PHI Proj Pts FD - 19.92 DK - 4.98 One of the highest projected goalies in our system today. He isn't confirmed yet but is clearly the Pens #1 option and should get the opportunity in this huge Stadium Series, outdoor game at Heinz Field. He has been on top of his game since the ASB going 5-1-2 with an elite .940 save % with one shutout. The matchup is also ideal as the struggling Flyers come to town with their 23rd ranked offense. Also Consider: Anti Raanta(NYR) CENTERS *Note: Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin are elite plays tonight in the Stadium Series game vs. the Flyers but come at a high cost. I will dig a little deeper for value today.* Jack Eichel FD - $7300 DK - $7300 Opponent - COL Proj Pts FD - 15.53 DK - 5.11 Take the discount off the Pens elite centers and roll with Eichel who gets the top matchup of the night. The Sabres travel to Colorado to face the bottom-feeding Avs who rank dead last in both offense and defense. It's good news for a team that has struggled overall this season ranking 24th in the league. Eichel has been their best player despite missing a few games and...

Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/24/17 Hello my fellow hockey fans and welcome to a nice little cozy four game slate in the NHL. Today we have a couple of weak defenses facing of against each other and one red hot goalie that is hard to ignore. Let's dive right in folks. 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 Braden Holtby FD - $9300 DK - $8400 Opponent - EDM Proj Pts FD - 14.5 DK - 3.63 Are the Capitals good or what? Today they get to play against the Oilers who are playing their third road game in four nights, so they will be exhausted. Holtby gave up only one goal in a victory over the Flyers in his last start and is 15-1-0 in his last 16 starts. That's just plain awesome. The Capitals are awesome at everything they do, so look for a win from holtby tonight and he has as much shutout upside as any goalie in the league on any given day. The Caps also play tomorrow, so if Philipp Grubauer gets the start this evening, he is also a great play, so roll him out there and enjoy the discounted prices. Also Consider: Craig Anderson - Ott (GPP) CENTERS Nicklas Backstrom FD - $6700 DK - $7200 Opponent - EDM Proj Pts FD - 12.44 DK - 4.17 This Swedish star has been playing some of the best hockey of his career lately and he got a goal and an assist last game. He now has 63 points this season, which is tied for fourth in the NHL. Backstrom has three goals, six assists and 13 shots on goal in his last five games. Like I said earlier, the Oilers will be tired and Backstrom gives you some nice exposure to Ovechkin on the first line and #1 power-play unit in Washington. He is a good play in all formats today. Stack With:...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/23/17
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/23/17 Welcome back to a nice little six-game slate in the National Hockey League. It should be a high scoring night with five teams projected for three or more goals with some elite matchups. Only the Bruins are playing on a back to back and no team is playing a third game in four nights. Let's dive in and take a look at some of the top plays from the projection system. 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 Ben Bishop FD - $8700 DK - $7800 Opponent - CGY Proj Pts FD - 15.64 DK - 3.91 He crushed it for us on Tuesday and continues his red-hot pace in the month of February. He has now won five straight games while stopping 121 of 127 shots he faced(.953 save %). He has helped give the Lightning some life in the playoff race as they now sit just four points back of the wildcard with a return of Steven Stamkos in site. Look for the Bolts and Bishop to carry their momentum over to Thursday where they will be fairly big home favorites to the visiting Flames and their 19th ranked offense. Bishop is a great play in all formats. Carey Price FD - $9200 DK - $8100 Opponent - NYI Proj Pts FD - 15.56 DK - 3.89 Price should be considered a GPP play only tonight and it honestly has nothing to do with his play. He is an elite netminder and while it appears he is struggling, all you need to do is watch a period of Habs hockey to realize the struggles are not his fault. They struggle to get the puck out of their own end when playing 5 on 5 and give up a ton of chances in which Price has been bailing them out. Don't believe me? Take a look at his 5 on 5 save %(.939) which ranks...
