For the first Wednesday of the year, here are my players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Scott Wedgewood, DAL at ANA ($30): Yes, the Stars are on the road for the second leg of a back-to-back, but I still like Wedgewood in this matchup. His play in net hasn’t been… Source link
