2/1 NHL DFS – The Daily Hot Shot

This article focuses on NHL DFS Picks for 2/1 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 Lines

New York Rangers Two – Ryan Strome, Artemi Panarin, Jesper Fast

This feels like a repeat of last night’s article but you can re-read everything that I already said regarding the Rangers and the Red Wings. To summarize, Detroit has nearly double as bad a goal differential as the next closest team, their goalies are practically turnstiles, they stink! Not surprisingly, the Rangers dominated the Red Wings last night and get to face them again on the road end of a back to back. Both of the Ranger’s top two lines are in play and I would make sure to have Artemi Panarin in any cash lines. The Breadman had two points last night including a spectacular goal and should be back to work in the point-scoring business tonight. Mika Zibanejad got a lot of ownership last night as well, so a cross line, power play-oriented Rangers build doesn’t seem like a bad idea either.

Toronto One – Auston Matthews, Mitchell Marner, Zach Hyman

This line has been one of the best in the NHL with nine full line goals over their last ten games. Toronto has a high 4.48 implied goal and comes in a heavy -280 favorite tomorrow at home against the Senators. The Sens come in on the second night of a back to back and should have their hands full here. Auston Matthews is the standout play and I would make sure to have both him and Artemi Panarin in any of my cash games. In a large field tournament, you can add the other two skaters but on a slate with so many studs, they are far from priorities in cash games or smaller tournaments.

Honorable Mention for GPPS: Tampa Bay One – Brayden Point, Steven Stamkos, Nikita Kucherov
