I hope you had a nice St. Patrick’s Day. Now, it’s time to put the green hats away and finish off that leftover corned beef. There are 10 games on the NHL slate Thursday. You have a lot of options for your daily fantasy lineup. Here are some of the guys I would want to employ, and some folks I would eschew for this evening. GOALIE Jake Oettinger, DAL at DET ($30): Oettinger has been getting most of the starts recently, and with the way he’s playing that makes sense. He has a 2.16 GAA and .917… 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

GUARDS Paul George, LAC at WAS ($35): Injuries could be a problem for the Clippers in this game with Marcus Morris (concussion) listed as doubtful and Kawhi Leonard (back) listed as questionable.

Thursday just seems like a pretty normal day of NHL hockey, which feels nice this season. As of this writing, no games are being postponed. We’re deep enough into the season that we know a bit about these teams. I looked at the 10 games on the slate for Thursday and it just felt like hockey, which was weirdly nice. What would also be nice is if these recommendations help you in your quest for DFS glory. Let’s get to it! GOALIE James Reimer, CAR vs. DET ($28): Petr Mrazek doesn’t seem ready to… Source link

If you like options, days like Thursday are right up your alley. There are 10 games on the NHL slate, which means 20 teams worth of players to pick your DFS lineup from. It was supposed to be 11 games, but then San Jose and Vegas got postponed after I had written the first version of this article. Yes, I am annoyed. Of course, sometimes it helps to have those options pared down a bit, or a suggestion or two in your ear. Or in front of your eyes, as it were. That is to say, here are my… Source link

Thursday has the makings of a quiet night in the NBA with only three games on the schedule. Still, there is money to be won on Yahoo, so let’s dive into some players to consider for your entries, as well as a few to possibly avoid.

However, there are still nine NHL games Thursday, leaving plenty of options for your daily fantasy lineup. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your roster. GOALIE Cal Petersen, LOS at ARI ($29): It seems like the Jonathan Quick era is over in Los Angeles…. Source link

There won’t be a ton of action in the NBA on Thursday with just five games on the schedule. However, there are still a lot of big names to consider in DFS, which might make filling out your lineups a little tricky. Here are some players to possibly target, as well as a few to potentially avoid. GUARDS Delon Wright, DET vs. IND ($21): The trade of Derrick Rose has opened up an opportunity for Wright to play added minutes. He’s averaging 28 minutes per game for the season, but he’s logged at… Source link

Thursday isn’t quite as busy as originally expected, especially for those of you in the Northeast. Three games have been postponed: the Devils versus the Penguins, the Islanders versus the Sabres, and now the Avalanche versus the Wild. That still leaves eight NHL games taking place. I had actually written these recommendations up before the COL-MIN news, so there are a couple alterations where the info might be sparser. However, I didn’t want to leave those unhelpful suggestions in. Here are… Source link
