10/18 DFS Winner: Carter Hutton
As Allan Fabrykant highlighted in the Daily Hot Shot, Carter Hutton has had an excellent start to the season. Going against the Los Angeles Kings, Hutton had 47 saves and picked up his second consecutive shutout. Now at 5-0-0 this season, Hutton is proving to be one of the top goalies so far this season.
Outlook for the rest of the season: Carter Hutton has been phenomenal this season, with 1.70 goals allowed per game. Four of his seven goals allowed came in one game so he has proven he can be an elite goaltender. Expect Hutton to be a big target in NHL DFS for the next few Buffalo Sabres games.

10/18 DFS Winner: Tyreek Hill
Even though there was no players with an incredible statistical game on Thursday Night Football, Tyreek Hill had a solid day. He had three catches for 74 yards and a touchdown, thrown by the backup quarterback, Matt Moore.
Outlook for the rest of the season: Even though Hill has not had that huge game we know he is capable of, he is putting decent numbers up. His production depends on the health of Pat Mahomes, which was injured in the second quarter last night. With the questionable secondary of the Green Bay Packers and an extended week of preparation, expect Hill to have a huge day or two in the upcoming weeks.
10/18 DFS Winner: Kansas City Defense
The Kansas City Chiefs had a solid game against the Denver Broncos last night in a divisional matchup. Their defense stepped up, as they allowed just six total points with a touchdown on the opening drive. They allowed 205 yards of total offense and held the Broncos to 1-of-13 on third downs. Kansas City also had nine sacks and two defensive touchdowns.
Outlook for the rest of the season: Kansas City is not an elite defense by any stretch of the imagination, ranking 25th in total defense. However, they allow only 21.4 points per game. They host the Green Bay Packers next Sunday and expect the Chiefs to hold the running game down and make them one dimensional.
