Chris Davies This article focuses on NHL DFS Picks for 3/1 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
Las Vegas One – William Karlsson, Max Pacioretty, Nick Cousins/Mark Stone
Mark Stone is day to day and missed the other night so be sure to watch his status. There are two ways to look at this situation. If Mark Stone is in, he certainly adds an additional level of skill, making the line more potent. However, if Stone is not in, Nick Cousins offers elite salary relief. Either way, Las Vegas has a 3.91 implied goal total and is massive -300 favorites. These are both slates highs by a massive margin with the only other totals over three, the Blue Jackets at 3.19 and Capitals at 3.11. The top two Golden Knight lines should be the most popular in all formats tonight.
Columbus One – Boone Jenner, Nick Foligno, Gustav Nyquist
No Oliver Bjorkstrand, no problem. Columbus has the second-highest implied goal total on the slate and it has been this top-line helping to try to keep them afloat in the wild card race. As mentioned above, the Blue Jackets have second-highest implied goal total on the slate at 3.19. Meanwhile, they will host the Canucks who come in on a back to back and should be tired after a road loss to the Maple Leafs. Boone Jenner does not have power-play correlation with the other two skaters but that is not the biggest deal considering how hot he is right now.
