Happy Halloween! Monday sees three NHL games on the schedule in the evening, alternatives to handing out candy or what have you. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. Kids dressed as Minions shouldn’t be the only ones having a good time Monday night. GOALIE Ville Husso, DET at BUF ($32): Husso has alternated between great and bad starts this season with the Red Wings, and, in theory, he would be in line for a bad outing. I don’t think the former Blue is destined… Source link

There are four NHL games Sunday evening, but unfortunately New Jersey’s game is a matinee so it won’t be involved in the action on Devil’s Night (which I learned in adulthood is entirely a Detroit thing and thus a reference lost on everybody else). For the eight teams playing, here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Logan Thompson, VGK vs. WPG ($37): The tricky thing about Sunday’s goalies is that every netminder catching a team on the second leg of a… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Hockey series. After a couple seasons of this being the case, many hockey fans are used to Wednesday being the light day in the NHL week. It’s the day for showcasing games on TNT. Thus, this Wednesday we have three games on the slate, and be prepared for Wednesdays being days where your options for your DFS lineups are slimmer. However, I still have my recommendations for you. GOALIE Ilya Sorokin, NYI vs. NYR ($35): This was a little tricky. The… Source link

We are starting to get a little data on this season of NHL hockey. Now, I am still looking at team numbers combining last season and this season. It’s too early to get a sense of penalty kills or how many shots a defense is going to give up. Pieces fall into place, though, and then we get a look at this puzzle. There are six NHL games Monday night. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Jake Oettinger, DAL at OTT ($34): There was not an obvious target for… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Hockey series. The NHL took the first Sunday of the season off, but not the second! There are five games on the docket, with the first starting at 2 p.m. EDT. You’ll need to get your lineups in early for matinee hockey. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Sergei Bobrovsky, FLA vs. NYI ($36): The Islanders are on the road for the second game of a back-to-back. And while they have defensive guile, they also… Source link

Tuesday features eight NHL games on the slate. Sure, it’s opening night for the NBA, but there are only two basketball games going on. There’s four times the hockey! Here are some players to target and avoid for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Ilya Sorokin, NYI vs. SAN ($42): In his career, Sorokin has a 2.31 GAA and .924 save percentage. He’s off to a hot start to the season, even if it only two games, but that continues his standard from his two previous campaigns. The Sharks have only managed 2.51… Source link

Here we go! It’s the first Saturday of the NHL season. Saturday is usually a robust day for hockey, and the first one this season is no different. There are 12 games featured on the evening slate, which starts at 7 p.m. EDT. Let’s make the first weekend of the NHL season a good one. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineup. GOALIE Jeremy Swayman, BOS vs. ARI ($32): Linus Ullmark was in the crease first this season for the Bruins, but he and Swayman are likely going to… Source link

It’s a busy Thursday in the NHL with 10 games and after tonight, only Detroit, St. Louis and Winnipeg will have yet to play a regular-season game. It’s the second game of back-to-back contests for Chicago, Colorado, Seattle, Toronto and Washington, so be careful in rostering tired players. Below, you’ll find suggested options for crafting an effective lineup. GOALIE Ilya Samsonov, TOR vs. WAS ($25): Samsonov gets his first start for the Maple Leafs and, lo and behold, he faces the team that… Source link

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Hockey series. Tuesday was a taste of NHL action. Wednesday kicks things into high gear. There are six games on the slate, including the season opener for the defending champs, the Colorado Avalanche. It’s a little easier to make DFS roster selections when you aren’t relegated to making your picks among only four teams. Here are my players to target and avoid for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Alexandar Georgiev, COL vs. CHI ($35): The Avalanche start… Source link
