11/28 NHL DFS – The Daily Hot Shot – Thanksgiving Showdown Edition

This article focuses on NHL DFS Picks for 11/28 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 Two Plays

Carey Price – Montreal Canadiens – DraftKings

Because Carey Price is the same cost as a skater, I think that this is where you start in the DraftKings showdown format when searching for your captain. On FanDuel, by contrast, picking a goalie is not an option. Price has been struggling as of late, but this seems like the type of spot where he bounces back. The Devils have been dreadful on the road and the Canadiens fans in the crowd should be rowdy, as they will not be tired from a big Thanksgiving dinner. Despite his recent issues, Price still has a .900 GAA.

Brendan Gallagher – Montreal Canadiens – FanDuel

We do not get penalized for choosing a higher salary player in our captain slot here, so it makes sense to look to the expensive end for our selection. I like Brendan Gallagher, who fired eight shots on goal Tuesday night despite the big loss against Boston. That type of volume will likely be rewarded here as the Devils are not exactly the Bruins. The Canadiens are projected for 3.66 goals as compared to the Devils 2.84 so it makes sense to pull more from their side of this matchup. With the bonuses on DraftKings, on that site specifically, I would likely reverse the order on FanDuel below and rank Shea Weber over Gallagher.

Shea Weber +0.5 > Andy Greene- Shots on Goal plus Blocks – Shea Weber should be very chalky tonight in all formats. I like him versus New Jersey’s old dog Andy Greene who doesn’t offer anything near the offensive presence that Weber does. The fact that Weber gets a 0.5 head start makes it unfair.

Brendan Gallagher – Over 3.5 Fantasy Points – I wrote extensively about Brendan Gallagher above and 3.5 Fantasy Points is a low standard, as Monkey Knife Fight thresholds go.
