Thursday 1/27 NHL Slate and DFS Gameplan

Welcome back to the Hot Shot for a ten-game Thursday slate!

Full Game Odds/Totals and DraftKings Rankings can be found below as well as cash game considerations for each site.

Three Favorite Lines Per Dollar

Florida Two “Sam Bennett, Jonathan Huberdeau, Anthony Duclair”

This line seems to make the cut nearly every slate. However, given their affordable collective DraftKings price and the Panthers propensity for high total games and I guess it comes at no surprise. Tonight, we find Florida hosting the Vegas Golden Knights in one of the slate’s three 6.5 total games as of the time of writing. Their eight full line goals over the last ten games is fourth best in the NHL helping to cement their pricing status as criminal on DraftKings part.

Pittsburgh One “Sidney Crosby, Jake Guentzel, Bryan Rust”

The Penguins find themselves in quite a juicy spot later as -310 moneyline favorites as hosts to the Seattle Kraken. Phillip Gruabauer is projected to start in the opposing net and to say he has had a rough season is a bit of an understatement. All three skaters share correlation on the first power play unit with Bryan Rust my preferred individual play if just choosing one.

New York Rangers One “Mika Zibanejad, Chris Krieder, Julian Gauthier”

New York’s top line has been spitting hot fire recently and now gets to face the traveling Columbus Blue Jackets who are on the second night of a back to back. Tonight’s matchup features one of the three 6.5 total games on the night and it shouldn’t be much of a surprise which team ends up doing most of the heavy lifting in that regard.
