GOALIE Marc-Andre Fleury FD - $8600 DK - $8200 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 21.75 DK - 5.44 There are currently five teams who are -200 or greater home favorites tonight and for my top goalie, I will start with one of the two of them that also has a low 5.5 Vegas Total. Fleury is coming off a loss where he gave up four goals but has been fantastic on home ice this season with a 15-7-3 record, .921 save %, and 5 shutouts. He now gets a plus matchup against a Coyotes team that ranks 28th overall on offense and that he has already beaten twice this season saving 48 of 51 shots he has faced. Fire up Fleury in all formats on Tuesday. Connor Hellebuyck FD - $8500 DK - $8100 Opponent - NYR Proj Pts FD - 19.23 DK - 4.81 I have mentioned it many times that this has not been Hellebuyck's best season but he still provides a ton of upside. We saw it in his last start where he faced 36 shots, saving 35 of them in a 3-1 win over the Sabres. The shot totals are nothing new as he has faced 35.6 shots per game over his last 10 games and while his save % is slightly better on the road the Jets overall have been a beast at home with a 20-6-3 record. They now face a Rangers team that ranks 27th on offense and have the third-worst road record(9-14-2) in the league. I don't quite trust Hellebuyck in cash but think his upside makes him a fantastic GPP play tonight. CENTERS Sebastian Aho FD - $7300 DK - $7300 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 16.47 DK - 4.78 If you have the salary to make it work, Patrice Bergeron is the pay up option at the position but I will be again taking a more balanced approach tonight, at least in cash games. It starts with Sebastian...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/9/19
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/9/19 Welcome back hockey fans. After just one game on Friday night, we have a monster slate on Saturday that includes 14 games in total. The day starts with an early seven-game slate followed by a six-game main slate with one game in the middle that is only included on the all day slate on FanDuel. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NHL optimizer!

We've got you completely covered. GOALIE Early Carter Hart FD - $8700 DK - $8100 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 20.08 DK - 5.02 Not only has Carter Hart earned his place among the top rookies but he is also looking like one of the best goalies in the league lately. He comes into this afternoon's matchup having won seven straight and eight of his last nine starts while posting a .935 save % while facing an average of 35.8 shots per game. The price is rising fast but I am willing to pay up today in a terrific matchup against the Ducks who have lost six straight and 18 of their last 20 games while scoring two or fewer goals 14 times. Fire up Hart in all formats. Also Consider: Tuukka Rask(BOS) who has been equally as good lately winning eight of his last 10 starts while posting a .947 save % Main David Rittich FD - $8300 DK - $8000 Opponent - VAN Proj Pts FD - 12.17 DK - 3.04 Goalie is a lot tougher on the main slate with Fleury, who I love at home, in a tougher matchup against the Blue Jackets, Holtby is the most expensive option and hasn't been great lately(.901 save % last 10), and Vasilevskiy faces a Crosby-led Penguins team. Instead, I will turn to David Rittich who has been terrific(20-4-4/.916 save %) for the Flames who lead the Western Conference standings. While he doesn't face a ton of shots(30 shots/60) but has been consistent in holding opponents to two or fewer goals in 17 of his 32 starts this season. At the slight discount and plus matchup against the Canucks, Rittich is my top goalie on the slate in all formats. Also Consider: Frederik Andersen(TOR) in GPP formats, especially on DraftKings in the sub $8K range CENTERS Early Jack Eichel FD - $7800 DK - $7500 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/7/19
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/7/19 Welcome back hockey fans. After a quiet night on the ice on Wednesday, we are back with a huge 14-game slate on Thursday. There is only one team(OTT) playing on a back to back and four others(LAK, ANH, VAN, ARI) who are playing a third game in four nights. Let's jump in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position and then be sure to check out our projection system and lineup optimizer.

Be sure to read our free NBA Ebooks on building lineups, general strategy and more. We've got you completely covered. GOALIE Andrei Vasilevskiy FD - $9000 DK - $8300 Opponent - STL Proj Pts FD - 0 DK - 3.73 Call me crazy for targeting a goalie in a game with a 6.5 Vegas total but there is a lot to like here. The Lightning are -190 home favorites against a Blues team that ranks 25th in road defense and while they have won four of their last five games, three of those wins came against teams in the bottom six of the overall standings. Despite giving up four or more goals three times(all on the road), Vasilevskiy has posted a .931 save % over the last 10 games with three shutouts and now sits 3rd in save % on the season. The price tag is high but is my clear #1 option in all formats. Anthony Stolarz FD - $7000 DK - $8000 Opponent - LA Proj Pts FD - 19.08 DK - 4.77 If you are looking to pay down at goalie and load up on skaters in GPP formats, Stolarz is the man to target especially on DraftKings at only $7K. I was hoping rookie sensation, Carter Hart, was starting tonight but they decided to give him a rest as he has helped carry the team to an eight-game win streak. Stolarz has been very up and down this season giving up four or more goals four times in his 10 games but has also held opponents to two or fewer goals in four starts as well including a 33 save shutout against the Rangers in his last start. He not only has win potential tonight as the Flyers are -175 home favorites but he also has upside facing a ton of shots and matches up against a Kings team that ranks 30th overall on offense. CENTERS Jack Eichel FD - $7600 DK - $7400...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/5/19
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/5/19 It's time to get ready for a very busy night in the National Hockey League. There are 12 games on the schedule including four teams(LA, VAN, ANH, ARI) who are playing on a back to back and third game in four nights. Let's dig in and take a look at some of the top plays at each position and then be sure to check out the projections and all-new lineup optimizer for both FanDuel and DraftKings.

Be sure to read our free NBA Ebooks on building lineups, general strategy and more. We've got you completely covered. GOALIE Carey Price FD - $8700 DK - $8300 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 19.68 DK - 4.92 Price has been outstanding lately winning five straight and seven of his last 10 games(2 shutouts) with a .941 save while facing over 30 shots per game. That isn't even the first thing that stood out which easily makes him my top target tonight. The Habs are home favorites tonight facing a free-falling Ducks team that went into last night losers of 15 of their last 17 games and are currently down to the Leafs 4-1 in the third period and will be playing on a back to back and third game in four nights on Tuesday. They may not take a lot of shots(27.1 per game) but rank 30th overall on offense scoring just 2.3 goals per game. Fire up Price in all formats. Pekka Rinne FD - $8200 DK - $8200 Opponent - ARI Proj Pts FD - 17.74 DK - 4.43 I will likely be siding with Price on DraftKings for just $100 more but if you need an extra $500 wiggle room on FanDuel, Pekka Rinne is an interesting option tonight. He has struggled lately winning just four of his last 10 starts while recording a sub .900 save % but is still on of the best goalies in the league with the 3rd best defense and the 12th best offense in front of him. This game is also one of just four games on the slate with a low 5.5 Vegas Total and on top of that, the Preds are huge -290 home favorites against a Coyotes team playing on a back to back and third game in four nights all on the road. I am not as worried about the recent performance as we have a large enough sample size showing Rinne's elite ability between...
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/2/19
Daily Fantasy Hockey Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings 2/2/19 Happy Saturday hockey fans or as we like to call it North of the border, Hockey Night in Canada. We have a huge 11-game slate so let's jump in and take a look at some of the top plays in all formats then grab a copy of my NHL Cheatsheet and put it all together with the DFSR NHL Optimizer.

GOALIE Connor Hellebuyck FD - $8600 DK - $8300 Opponent - ANA Proj Pts FD - 20.02 DK - 5.01 I will be paying right up at goaltender tonight as Connor Hellebuyck has everything going his way. He has been terrific lately winning seven of his last 10 games with a .914 save % and is a huge -220 favorite at home tonight where he and the Jets, as a team, have strong splits on the season(Helle is 14-6-1 at home and Jets are 19-6-2). He now gets an elite matchup vs. a struggling Ducks team that has lost 14 of their last 16 games and has scored two or fewer goals in 11 of those games. Hellebuyck isn't just a safe cash play but also has upside as he has faced north of 34 shots per game over his last 10. All things considered, Hellebuyck is a great pay in all formats tonight. Robin Lehner FD - $8600 DK - $8200 Opponent - LA Proj Pts FD - 20.2 DK - 5.05 At this point, Lehner is slightly edging out Hellebuyck in our raw points projections and it makes sense. He has been outstanding lately going 8-1-1 with a .949 save % and two shutouts over his last 10 starts and now leads the league in both GAA(2.02) and save %(.931). Tonight, he and the Islanders are -170 home favorites against a Kings team that ranks dead last in offense and the only team to average under two goals per game on the road. I am picking on the California team tonight but I think both Hellebuyck and Lehner are great plays tonight. CENTERS Dylan Larkin FD - $6900 DK - $6900 Opponent - OTT Proj Pts FD - 18.52 DK - 5.3 I wrote up Larkin last night and will be going right back to the well tonight as his price remains in the sub $7K range on both sites. He once again checks off every box and...
