There are 12 games in the NHL on Saturday, but only the 10 evening bouts beginning at 7 p.m. EST are included in the main contests at Yahoo. The Lightning, Penguins and Maple Leafs are the largest favorites on the docket, and the highest over/under totals are in the Capitals-Flyers, Blackhawks-Panthers, Jets-Maple Leafs, and Oilers-Canucks matchups. GOALIE Carey Price, MON at CGY ($28): The Canadiens have surrendered the fewest five-on-five goals per 60 minutes in the league and sport the… Source link

We came close to getting unlucky, but instead this Friday falls on the 12th, so we can breathe a sigh of relief. On top of that, we can enjoy the five NHL games taking place, with the earliest game starting at 8:00 p.m. ET. That’s an hour later than usual when it comes to setting your DFS lineup. Perhaps it’s the NHL’s attempt to do you a solid before Daylight Saving Time begins on Sunday.  Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your lineup… GOALIE Kaapo Kahkonen, MIN vs. ARI… Source link

MATCHES (ET) FORWARDS Gabriel Jesus, MCI at FUL (£21): Jesus has the third-highest goal-scoring odds of any player and should start for the biggest favorite. He’s been a bit feast-or-famine, though his feast has been solid, scoring three goals in his past four matches. Expect Jesus to continue to start over Sergio Aguero, while he should be flanked by a combination of Raheem Sterling (£29), Riyad Mahrez (£23, MID), or Phil Foden (£23). As mentioned, City are heavy favorites with an implied… Source link

The NBA follows up a busy Thursday with seven games on the schedule Friday. Injuries and several teams playing the second game of a back-to-back set make for some interesting DFS decisions. Here are some players to consider for your entries, as well as a few to possibly avoid. GUARDS Dejounte Murray, SA vs. ORL ($34): The big news for the Spurs is that DeMar DeRozan won’t play because he will be attending his father’s funeral service. That means they will have to play without one of their… Source link

The Guardian The Bears are in a perfect position to end Russell Wilson’s Seahawks career The quarterback believes the team he has been a part of for his entire career is holding him back. If he wants out, now is the time to strike Russell Wilson has been to two Super Bowls with the Seahawks. Photograph: Elaine Thompson/AP Russell Wilson is the latest franchise star to put himself forward for this offseason’s game of quarterback musical chairs. Wilson, his agent has been at pains to point… Source link

When I wrote up my recommendations for Wednesday, I made note of the fact it was a very Western-focused group of games in terms of teams, and especially home teams. Well, Thursday is kind of the opposite of that. Calgary is at home against Montreal, but otherwise nobody west of Dallas is in action (It can be easy to forget that Winnipeg is basically just north of Minnesota). It’s a big day for the East Coast, but also for the NHL in general, as 10 games are on the slate. Time for some… Source link

The NBA returns from the All-Star break Wednesday, albeit with a limited two-game schedule. That doesn’t leave us with a lot of options to consider in DFS. Still, here are some of the top players to consider for your entries, as well as a few to possibly avoid. GUARDS Luka Doncic, DAL vs. SA ($53): Doncic sat out the Mavericks last game before the break because of a back injury, but since he played in the All-Star game, expect him to be a full-go for this contest. He’s continued to provide… Source link

If you are an East Coast, or even a Midwestern, hockey fan, Wednesday may not be for you. There is not a home team east of Minnesota in Wednesday’s five games, and the only teams east of the Wild in action are the Senators and the Canadiens. However, the first game still starts at 7:00 p.m. ET, so you don’t get any extra time to get your DFS lineup in. Here are my recommendations. GOALIE Philipp Grubauer, COL vs. ARI ($40): Grubauer has been consistent in Colorado, as he has a .917 save… Source link

MATCHES (EST) FORWARDS Lionel Messi, BAR at PSG (€32): Barcelona dug themselves a deep hole by going down 4-1 in the first leg, meaning there’s no other choice than for Messi to push for goals from the onset. Let’s not forget about the 2017 UCL tie between these two where Barcelona turned a 4-0 first leg deficit around with a 6-1 win in the second to advance to the quarterfinals by a 6-5 aggregate score. If they are to repeat that performance, Messi will need to be scoring early and often,… Source link
