---|---|---|---|---|
C | Connor McDavid | EDM @ CHI Wed 9:30 | 9400 | 10400 |
McDavid has 39 points on the season already and gets a matchup against the Blackhawks who allow 3.62 goals per game, no brainer here. Game Type: CASH | ||||
C | Auston Matthews | SJ @ TOR Wed 7:00 | 8700 | 9600 |
This slate will come down to those who play Matthews and those who play McDavid… Call me crazy but I lean Matthews tonight in a home game against a Sharks team that played just last night and are on short rest. Matthews has also topped 30+ DFS points in his last 2 games. Game Type: CASH & GPP | ||||
C | Dylan Larkin | BUF @ DET Wed 7:00 | 7000 | 8900 |
A rock solid pivot away from the big boys tonight is Dylan Larkin who is averaging over a point per game this season. The Sabres allow the 6th most goals in the NHL and the Detroit offense has been humming lately! Game Type: CASH & GPP | ||||
C | Vincent Trocheck | NYR @ OTT Wed 7:00 | 5200 | 6400 |
Trocheck doesn't pad the stats most nights but he has had some big time games since donning a blue Rags sweater. What I especially like is his total of 15 shots on goal over the past 5 games, he's getting more involved! Game Type: GPP | ||||
C | Dylan Cozens | BUF @ DET Wed 7:00 | 4300 | 6100 |
Here's a little share of Buffalo tonight, as they are still lethal on offense as bad as the team is overall. He has topped 15+ DFS points in 4 of his last 5 games and remains a huge bargain at just 4.3k on DraftKings in what should be a high scoring affair. Game Type: GPP | ||||
W | Leon Draisaitl | EDM @ CHI Wed 9:30 | 8200 | 10200 |
It's getting very hard to fade Leon Draisaitl as he mans the wing alongside Connor McDavid with the Oilers having some injury issues. 8.2k still seems low for a guy with 33 points on the season and one that has over double digit DFS points in 13 of his last 15 games. Game Type: CASH & GPP | ||||
W | Brady Tkachuk | NYR @ OTT Wed 7:00 | 8100 | 9500 |
In a 4 games slate I like to have some sort of piece on each team and what better one than Brady Tkachuk who is coming off of a 7 shots on goal and 2 point effort in his last contest. Tkachuk is one of the safest floors in DFS this season, a cash game lock and load. Game Type: CASH | ||||
W | Dominik Kubalik | NYR @ OTT Wed 7:00 | 6200 | 7700 |
Each time I have Larkin in the playbook I need some Kubalik too! That exclamation point was for the FA discord too! Kubalik has really come into his own this season averaging over a point per game. This matchup is a real juicy one for him and the Red Wings. Game Type: GPP | ||||
W | Mitch Marner | SJ @ TOR Wed 7:00 | 5400 | 7500 |
I waste hours of my life choosing between Mitch Marner and William Nylander when the Maple Leafs have a primo matchup. They are both the same price basically and both are very productive to be sitting at mid price wingers. I'll give the edge to Marner tonight as he's riding the hot streak and I believe his game is better against a tired Sharks team. Game Type: CASH & GPP | ||||
W | Andreas Athanasiou | EDM @ CHI Wed 9:30 | 4300 | 4600 |
Again adding exposure to some other rosters right here. Anthanasiou offers some good upside working on the top line and powerplay unit with the Blackhawks. His speed is also perfect for the run and gun style of an Edmonton and Chicago game, good salary relief too. Game Type: GPP | ||||
D | Rasmus Dahlin | BUF @ DET Wed 7:00 | 7600 | 9000 |
Fading Erik Karlsson on the playbook today might be bad as my top option but I'd rather go a little cheaper as my money is tied up at center tonight. Dahlin is in a game that has a total of 7 goals on the betting market in places and he's always scoring double digit DFS points. Game Type: CASH & GPP | ||||
D | Jacob Trouba | 5100 | 6500 | |
Trouba is not a big point scorer but he racks up the shots on goal and blocks a fair amount as well. He is also cheaper than Adam Fox and averages around the same total of points at 11.5 DFS points per contest. Game Type: CASH | ||||
D | Filip Hronek | 4700 | 7000 | |
In his last game our guy Filip Hronek finally came back to earth with a lackluster performance. Tonight is a great matchup for a bounce back against the Sabres as they allow the 5th most points on blueliners this season. Hronek has 5 goals in the last 5 games, long may he reign! Game Type: CASH & GPP | ||||
D | Tyson Barrie | 3900 | 5900 | |
Top power play unit for the Oilers and cheap exposure to McDavid and company, hard to beat that upside for under 4k. Game Type: GPP | ||||
G | Jack Campbell | BUF @ DET Wed 7:00 | 8300 | 7900 |
I really don't like Jack Campbell but its a small slate and people need options. This is a game that the Oilers should win and the Blackhawks do a good enough job putting rubber on the net. Game Type: CASH | ||||
G | Igor Shesterkin | NYR @ OTT Wed 7:00 | 7800 | 8300 |
This is the play I like much more and I don't know why Igor has been so underpriced on DK this season but whatever. The Rangers allow just 2.87 goals per game and the Senators have really been struggling to score lately with just 10 in their last 5 games. Game Type: CASH & GPP | ||||
G | Ilya Samsonov | 6500 | 6500 | |
Sammy boy is back in the crease and is coming as a major value as the Maple Leafs should win tonight against a tired Sharks team that struggles anyways. Sammy was awesome before he got injured with a 2.23 GAA and .921 SV%, this might be my play of day in DFS. Game Type: GPP |
C | EDM @ CHI Wed 9:30 | |||
McDavid has 39 points on the season already and gets a matchup against the Blackhawks who allow 3.62 goals per game, no brainer here. Game Type: CASH | ||||
