This article focuses on NHL DFS Picks for 10/29 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.

10/29 NHL – Main Slate

Top Four Lines

Boston One – David Pastrnak, Brad Marchand, Patrice Bergeron– Suprise, surprise. If you haven’t been playing these guys at all, NHL DFS must be rough as of late. The Sharks are not good defensively, they have awful goaltenders, and should be the next victims on Boston’s list. If Ottawa can rack up goals versus San Jose, just imagine the possibilities. This is my top stack once again.

Tampa Bay Two – Nikita Kucherov, Brayden Point, Ondrej Palat – This line was last year’s most dangerous as both Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point broke their fair share of slates. It is a road matchup but that doesn’t seem to matter lately for the Rangers with their lack of defense. All three players have correlation on the first power play line as well.

Toronto One – Austin Matthews, Andreas Johnsson, William Nylander, Morgan Reilly – Toronto will be facing a leaky Washington defense and will look to make “some dreams come true” for the home crowd. Much like the two lines above you have full power play one correlation here as well. As always they are cheap and you can either pair with Reilly or use them in conjunction with another top line.

Washington One – Alex Ovechkin, Nicklas Backstrom, T.J. Oshie, John Carlson – You can either game stack or play the Toronto game differently by rolling with the Capitals first line. Another full correlation line, they can certainly take advantage of the short handed Maple Leafs. I expect this to be a high scoring affair.

Honorable Mentions: Pittsburgh One, Edmonton One, Detroit One (more large field)
