NHL DFS Picks & Daily Fantasy Playbook Today, March 24th

We saw several teams post 3+ goals yesterday, an encouraging sign that teams are still looking to fly up and down the ice, which hopefully continues for tonight's NHL DFS picks. 

NHL DFS Pick'em Picks on Underdog With Promo Code ALARM

• Bo Horvat Higher Than 2.5 Shots on Goal 
• Matt Duchene Higher Than 1.5 Shots on Goal
• Dylan Guenther Higher Than 2.5 Shots on Goal 

Bo Horvat is helping lead the Islanders in the wild card race and he comes in with at least three shots on goal in seven of his last 10 games. Tonight, he's up against the Blue Jackets, who have allowed 58.89 Total Shot Attempts per 60 minutes in five-on-five situations, which is the 11th worst in the league since the start of March. 

Matt Duchene has been sneaky consistent this season and will look to continue that tonight against the Minnesota Wild. Duchene has two shots or more in seven of his last 10 games and with time on the second forward line and the first power-play unit, the chances will always be there for him. The matchup is solid since the Wild have allowed 58.75 Total Shot Attempts per 60 minutes in five-on-five situations, which is the 13th worst in the league since the start of March. 

Dylan Guenther is a shot-machine recently with 43 shots on goal over his last 10 games. A shot-first mentality is my favorite thing in the NHL and he brings that every single night. Guenther has posted at least three shots on goal in nine straight games, making him live to hit this every night. 

Monday Salary Cap DFS Picks

Goalie Of The Day: Ilya Sorokin - NYI

The New York Islanders are set to take on the Columbus Blue Jackets in a very important game in the Eastern Conference wild-card race. Both teams are on the outside looking in right now and are separated by only two points, which should give us a playoff-type environment tonight. 

Over the last two weeks, the Blue Jackets offense has struggled and has only scored 1.38 Goals per 60 minutes in five-on-five situations, which is the second-lowest in the league. During that same time, the Islanders have only allowed 2.08 Goals, which is the 10th-best in the NHL. 

While Sorokin has had some ups and downs this season, he's playing at his best right now, having allowed only two goals in four of his last five starts. 

Play Of The Day: Jason Robertson - W - DAL

The Dallas Stars come in with a strong 3.4 implied goal total tonight against the Minnesota Wild, which should be the game of the night. 

Jason Robertson comes in with 4 goals, 5 assists, and 19 shots on goal over his last 10 games, making him one of the most consistent options on the slate. Ideally, we'd see that shot volume a bit higher to up his scoring potential, but the scoring is solid and the ceiling of the line with Roope Hintz and Mikko Rantanen is massive. 

Value Play Of The Day: Jake DeBrusk - W - VAN

The Vancouver Canucks are dealing with a few injuries to their forwards right now and it opens up some opportunities for Jake DeBrusk. He's already on the second forward line and the second power-play unit, but that could change if Elias Pettersson and Nils Hoglander both don't play tonight. 

DeBrusk comes in with 5 points and 25 shots on goal over the last 10 games, which should put him in a good spot against the New Jersey Devils, who have been struggling on defense. Over the last two weeks, the Devils have allowed 3.34 Goals per 60 minutes in five-on-five situations, which is the fourth-worst in the league. 

Stack Of The Day: UTA PP1 (Dylan Guenther, Nick Schmaltz, Clayton Keller, Mikhail Sergachev)

The Utah Hockey Club comes in with a slate-high 3.7 implied goal total at home, as they are set to take on the Detroit Red Wings. Surprisingly, the Utah offense has been cookin' lately, having scored 3.04 Goals per 60 minutes in five-on-five situations over the last two weeks, which is the eighth-best in the league. 

This four-man stack has done most of that work with Guenther posting 5 points and 43 shots. Keller with 8 points and 23 shots. Schmaltz with 10 points and 27 shots. And Sergacheve with 7 points and 18 shots.
