NHL DFS The Daily Hot Shot for DraftKings and FanDuel (Feb. 19)

This article focuses on NHL DFS Picks for 2/19 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

Boston One – David Pastrnak, Patrice Bergeron, Brad Marchand

The Boston Bruins should be in for a nice little bounce back across the second half from their recent slumber. As I have noted previously in the article, Brad Marchand is primarily playing as a setup man this season, so he is the one I would leave if salary makes all fitting all three skaters unmanageable. Boston is a -170 favorite against the Edmonton Oilers and without Connor McDavid’s defense when hard matching the top line, they will be hard to contain. You can also just play the Pasta one-off if you so choose, as he is individually one of the top plays on the slate. He’s more than just the accomplished knitter that you see on the Dunkin Donuts commercials.

Top Value Line

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

After the Rangers messed around with their lines a bunch over the last two weeks, this line is finally back together. Those changes were mainly the result of a rash of injuries, but previously this line had been posting elite numbers for a very fair price. Artemi Panarin and Ryan Strome are the two core skaters from this line. The Blackhawks should focus much of their defensive energy on stopping the Rangers top line, which has been doing most of the damage recently as Artemi Panarin has been forced into some awful lines. Both Panarin and Strome also share time on the first power-play unit, providing us with a double correlation.
