1/27 NHL DFS – The Daily Hot Shot

This article focuses on NHL DFS Picks for 1/27 on DraftKings and FanDuel. Both sites have fairly different scoring formats, particularly with the recent changes on DraftKings. We consider tournament tactics, statistics, pricing, and attempt to tackle this highly variable Daily Fantasy format so we can gain an edge on the field at large. BE SURE to double-check both regular and power play lines at both morning skate and before lock as they can drastically change from the time of publication.

Top Expensive Line

Nashville Two – Filip Forsberg, Matt Duchene, Mikael Granlund, Add-Ons: Mattias Ekholm, Roman Josi

There are multiple Nashville lines in play tomorrow, as the Predators are a -120 favorite in a high total game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Nashville might have an equal record both home and away so far this season, but historically have a pretty big edge at home. Toronto knows how to score, but can also give up their fair share of goals, as demonstrated by the 165 that they have already surrendered this year. While expensive, this line is by no means over the top in terms of price. Mattias Ekholm is the natural pairing if adding a defenseman, as he is paired with the second unit, and shares time with two of the three skaters listed above on the second power-play unit. However, Roman Josi is certainly another strong option, particularly given how often defensemen have cross-line shifts.

Top Value Line

Ottawa One – Brady Tkachuk, Anthony Duclair, Artem Anisimov

An unusual guest in the article, the Senators are a -130 home favorite against the New Jersey Devils and will be looking to get the second half of their season started on the right foot. I am not very interested in the second or third lines here as there is no need to try to be too creative when you’re already siding with the Senators. If you were to leave one skater off, it would be Artem Anisimov, who does not see any power playtime. The Devils were skidding before the break, losing 5-0, 5-2, and 7-4 games to close out the first half. I prefer this line on FanDuel where they are insanely cheap.

Roman Josi, John Carlson, Auston Matthews – Over 2.5 Points – The 2.5 point is at 20/28 going into the second half. An assist is as good as a goal, so first let’s plugin a couple of high-end defensemen. Auston Matthews will return to action tomorrow night, so it makes sense to plug him in to fill out the third and final spot.
