NHL DFS Man Advantage for DraftKings and FanDuel (Jan. 23)

We are rolling right through January. It’s hard to believe that the All-Star break is right around the corner, and from there, we only have a couple of months or regular season hockey left. After the break, things should get very fun. For now, we have a four game slate to break down on this fine Monday. Let’s check out our DFS picks for DraftKings and FanDuel. Good luck!

Goalies

Jake Oettinger – Dallas Stars: The Stars take on the Sabres on home ice tonight, and Oettinger is as solid as they come. There should be some upside to him tonight, so he should be worth it.

Ilya Samsonov – Toronto Maple Leafs: The Leafs host the Islanders tonight, and they should be able to handle them. The Isles are struggling a bit on offense of late, putting up just 2 goals per game over their last five. Samsonov has been a little inconsistent, so he runs a slight risk, but should be solid tonight.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Jacob Markstrom – Calgary Flames: It doesn’t look like Markstrom should be considered risky, but he has been so inconsistent recently that it has become hard to trust him. He is on home ice tonight, against a pretty poor offensive team, so he should pull the win. However, if the shot volume is low like it should be and he lets in 3, then he won’t be worth playing.

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Dallas Stars 1 – Tyler Seguin/Joe Pavelski/Jason Robertson/Miro Heiskanen: The Stars have a great matchup tonight against the Sabres and some poor goaltending. This line should see the top line for Buffalo, split with the third line, creating a nice upside for them. Add Jamie Benn to the mix for a power play look.

Calgary Flames 3 – Mikael Backlund/Blake Coleman/Andrew Mangiapane: We are taking a bit of a bold stand here with the third line for the Flames. But, they face the Blue Jackets tonight, who are not exactly known for their defense. The Flames at home tend to run this line against the opposing top six, setting up a great matchup for a very inexpensive line. These guys have a great chance to exceed value tonight at little to no ownership. CGY1 is also in play here.

Toronto Maple Leafs 1 – Auston Matthews/William Nylander/Michael Bunting/Morgan Rielly: The top Leafs line should see a mix of the 1 and 3 for the Islanders tonight, creating a nice looking matchup. The Isles have struggled, so this bodes well for the Leafs tonight.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

New York Rangers 2 – Vincent Trocheck/Jimmy Vesey/Barclay Goodrow: The Rangers’ second line should have a nice matchup tonight against the second line for the Panthers. This should be a good game between two pretty good clubs, and really could be a coin flip game. The top line here looks good too, especially with the new look that they skated with in the morning skate.

Florida Panthers 2 – Sam Bennett/Matthew Tkachuk/Carter Verhaeghe: The second line for the Panthers has just about the same matchup as its counterpart above, and should be in a good spot as well. This is arguably the best Florida line, and they should have some chances tonight.

Toronto Maple Leafs 3 – David Kampf/Pierre Engvall/Bobby McCann: The line matching schemes for the Leafs should put this line up against the second Islander line for a good portion of the night. If that holds true, then this line has a nice matchup and could be one of the beter value lines on the board tonight. Proceed with caution, as they don’t scream powerhouse offense.
