Welcome back to another edition of the Man Advantage. We get a solid 10 game slate tonight with some glaringly obvious plays. With that, we will have to find out how to be different. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Stuart Skinner – Edmonton Oilers: This is your cash play on the night, as the Oilers head to Chicago to face the Blackhawks.

Martin Jones – Toronto Maple Leafs: If you aren’t comfortable with Skinner in cash, Jones is another solid play that should get the win with limited upside.

Joey Daccord – Seattle Kraken: Daccord has been very solid so far this season, especially recently. He gets a good matchup tonight against the Sabres. There is a little risk in this, but ride the hot hand tonight.

Jacob Markstrom – Calgary Flames: The Flames host the Senators tonight and this should be a solid matchup for Markstrom and the Flames.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Ilya Sorokin – New York Islanders: The Isles host the Canucks tonight, who are on the second half of a traveling back to back. Sorokin has been inconsistent this year, but there is a ton of upside in this play. Vancouver has been hot, so they may well just keep rolling tonight, so the risk is very much there.

Others to Consider: Connor Hellebuyck (WPG), Sergei Bobrovsky (FLA)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Edmonton Oilers Power Play – Connor McDavid/Leon Draisaitl/Ryan Nugent-Hopkins/Zach Hyman/Evan Bouchard: This is a matchup. Wow. The Oilers against the Hawks tonight, in Chicago. This is going to be a very lopsided game, and this power play should absolutely feast tonight.

Florida Panthers 1 – Aleksander Barkov/Evan Rodrigues/Sam Reinhart/Brandon Montour: The Panthers’ top line has a really nice matchup tonight against the second line for the Blues. You can also roll the power play unit here, but this looks like a spot that should fly a little under the radar.

Toronto Maple Leafs Power Play – Auston Matthews/John Tavares/Mitch Marner/William Nylander/Morgan Rielly: This is another super-chalk play tonight, as the Leafs host the Sharks. The Leafs power play has been very good this year, and the Sharks are, well, the Sharks. This is your other obvious play on the night. Take your pick between these guys and Edmonton.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Nashville Predators Power Play – Ryan O’Reilly/Gustav Nyquist/Filip Forsberg/Colton Sissons/Roman Josi: This unit comes in just outside the top 10 in the league, and faces a middle of the pack PK in Anaheim tonight. Anaheim takes the most penalties per game in the league, so there should be plenty of chances for this unit tonight.

Arizona Coyotes 3 – Jack McBain/Matias Maccelli/Dylan Guenther: This is a nice value play tonight, as this line should see the third line for the Bruins tonight in a solid matchup. There is a bunch of risk here, but if they hit for one or two at virtually no ownership, you will be in a good spot.

Seattle Kraken 2 – Alex Wennberg/Jaden Schwartz/Brandon Tanev: This line is in a good spot tonight against Buffalo. They should see the second line for the night, setting them up for a great matchup. Make sure Schwartz is in fact back in tonight.

Calgary Flames 1 – Elias Lindholm/Yegor Sharangovich/Jonathan Huberdeau/Rasmus Andersson: The Flames are in a good spot tonight, and this top line should see their share of chances. There isn’t a ton of specific line matching here, which is what makes them high risk.

Winnipeg Jets 3 – Adam Lowry/Mason Appleton/Nino Niederreiter: This line takes the top opposing line when they are on home ice, setting them up for a nice little matchup tonight.

We are back tonight with another smaller slate. Tonight, we get 4 games that should be pretty close, so this is going to be a very tough slate. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Alexandar Georgiev – Colorado Avalanche: The Avs host the Bruins tonight in what should be a great game to watch. Both of these clubs are solid, and they have been playing well of late. This game should end up being tightly contested, and Georgiev has some solid numbers of late.

Matt Murray – Dallas Stars: The Stars head to Minnesota to face the Wild tonight in what should also be a tight game. Murray is playable, as Minnesota has been struggling.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Marc-Andre Fleury – Minnesota Wild: The Wild host the Stars tonight, and MAF has had some decent numbers recently. The Stars are coming into this game generating a ton of chances, but mostly at home. This is a spot that should see some upside.

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Dallas Stars Power Play – Roope Hintz/Jason Robertson/Joe Pavelski/Jamie Benn/Matt Duchene: The Stars have the 12th ranked power play unit, and Minnesota has the 28th ranked PK unit, setting this group up for a very solid night. The Wild take the 5th most penalties per game, so there should be ample opportunity for them tonight. Keep an eye on this one tonight, as Heiskanen is out. Duchene is listed as the 5th member of this unit currently, but could end up being Harley.

Vancouver Canucks Power Play – Elias Pettersson/JT Miller/Brock Boeser/Andrei Kuzmenko/Quinn Hughes: The Canucks head to New York tonight to face the Rangers, who have been up and down this season. Shesterkin specifically has been very inconsistent, and this unit should see some decent chances tonight.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Colorado Avalanche 1 – Nathan MacKinnon/Mikko Rantanen/Jonathan Drouin/Cale Makar: This line is about the only one in Colorado that we can trust at this point, and they have a decent matchup tonight. Swayman hasn’t been great for the Bruins recently, so that ups their chances if he gets the start.

Vancouver Canucks 2 – Pius Suter/Ilya Mikheyev/Andrei Kuzmenko: This line has a small sample size, but good numbers. They should see the top line for the Rangers tonight in a plus matchup. On a night that is a hard slate, we need to find the variance. This looks like a solid place to find it.

Philadelphia Flyers 1 – Sean Couturier/Travis Konecny/Joel Farabee/Travis Sanheim: The Flyers/Pens game feels like it could be the most wide open game of the night, and this line (Konecny specifically) has been on fire. The Flyers don’t generally match lines, and they are constantly shuffling up their lines through a game, but this unit is in a good spot against a hated rival in Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh Penguins Power Play – Sidney Crosby/Evgeni Malkin/Jake Guentzel/Rickard Rakell/Erik Karlsson: The other side of the Flyers/Pens has a good matchup as well, so feel free to mix and match from this game. Malkin and Crosby have always been a thorn in the Flyers’ side, so expect them to continue that tonight.

Happy new year!! We here at Win Daily hope you all had a fantastic holiday season. As we kick off 2024, we are greeted with a giant 13 game slate. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Juuse Saros – Nashville Predators: The Preds host the Blackhawks tonight in what should be a very solid matchup for Juice. This is a cash play more than a GPP play.

Alexandar Georgiev – Colorado Avalanche: The Avs host the Islanders tonight and this should be a good spot for Georgiev, who has been playing well of late.

Tristan Jarry – Pittsburgh Penguins: Jarry and the Pens host the Caps tonight, and this should be a solid spot for Jarry.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Karel Vejmelka – Arizona Coyotes: Veggie is back, as the Coyotes have been a solid team this year. They are not the Coyotes of the past, and tonight they get a good home matchup against the Panthers. There should be a bit of upside in this play, and the Panthers have been struggling to score. Veggie at home is much better than on the road, so this looks like a solid risk play.

Others to Consider: Linus Ullmark (BOS), Marc-Andre Fleury (MIN), Scott Wedgewood (DAL), Stuart Skinner (EDM), Connor Hellebuyck (WPG)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Dallas Stars Power Play – Roope Hintz/Jason Robertson/Joe Pavelski/Jamie Benn/Miro Heiskanen: The Stars have the 12th ranked power play unit, and Montreal has the 30th ranked PK unit, setting this group up for a very solid night. The Canadiens are also 9th in the league in PIMs/game, so there should be plenty of opportunity for this unit tonight.

Vancouver Canucks Power Play – Elias Pettersson/JT Miller/Brock Boeser/Andrei Kuzmenko/Quinn Hughes: The Canucks take on Ottawa at home tonight, setting this unit up for a huge night. They should get plenty of opportunities, and should be able to capitalize on them.

Colorado Avalanche 1 – Nathan MacKinnon/Mikko Rantanen/Jonathan Drouin/Cale Makar: This line is virtually always in play, but especially tonight. They should see the top line for the Isles tonight in a very nice looking matchup.

Nashville Predators 1 – Ryan O’Reilly/Gustav Nyquist/Filip Forsberg/Roman Josi: This is a fantastic matchup for the Preds tonight, as this line should face the top line for the Hawks for a majority of the night. The Preds have been struggling a bit, but this is a great spot for them to get back on track.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Boston Bruins 2 – Charlie Coyle/Brad Marchand/Jake Debrusk: This second line for the Bruins should see a date with the second line for the Blue Jackets tonight. That sets them up for a good opportunity to light the lamp a couple of times.

New York Rangers 2 – Vincent Trocheck/Artemi Panarin/Alexis Lafreniere: The second line for the Rangers is in a decent spot tonight against the second line for the Canes. They should see plenty of chances and have been playing well of late.

Pittsburgh Penguins 2 – Evgeni Malkin/Bryan Rust/Reilly Smith: This second line gets a date with the top line for the Caps tonight in a very plus matchup. Getting Rust back really helps the cause as well.

Winnipeg Jets 1 – Mark Scheifele/Gabriel Vilardi/Nikolaj Ehlers/Josh Morrissey: The Jets take on the Lightning tonight on home ice, and this line gets a very solid matchup against the newly formed TBL2. They should be able to take advantage of this matchup tonight. Consider the third line for the Jets as well if you want to get real risky with it.

There’s no two ways about it, last night was an absolutely horrible slate. Hopefully tonight brings us a better result. With 11 games on the slate, this one should be much better. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Connor Ingram – Arizona Coyotes: The Coyotes host the Senators tonight, who have been pretty bad of late. They have been struggling to generate chances and have lacked in the scoring department. Ingram has been fantastic and this is a great matchup for him tonight.

Cam Talbot – Los Angeles Kings: The Kings head to San Jose tonight to take on the Sharks in what should be a win for Talbot. This one should be chalky, so this is more of a cash play tonight.

Devon Levi – Buffalo Sabres: Levi and the Sabres host the Blue Jackets tonight in a solid matchup. Levi has been playing well, and he should be able to snag a win tonight.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Martin Jones – Toronto Maple Leafs: In a small sample, Jones’ numbers look great. He could be due for some regression, and the Leafs play the Rangers tonight, so this one is definitely a risky play. The shot volume will be there.

Others to Consider: Juuse Saros (NSH), Andrei Vasilevskiy (TBL), Thatcher Demko (VAN)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Colorado Avalanche 1 – Nathan MacKinnon/Valeri Nichushkin/Mikko Rantanen/Devon Toews: Yikes. This is a ridiculous matchup and in theory a really obvious play. The Avalanche head to Chicago to face the Blackhawks, where they should be able to outclass them up and down the ice. Makar might still be out tonight, but if he skates, then he takes the place of Toews.

Buffalo Sabres 1 – Tage Thompson/Alex Tuch/Zach Benson/Rasmus Dahlin: This top line for the Sabres is in a great spot tonight against the top line for the Blue Jackets. Tarasov is getting the start for Columbus, which elevates this line to an even better spot than they were in before that news.

Los Angeles Kings 2 – Phillip Danault/Trevor Moore/Kevin Fiala: The Kings’ second line should see the Hertl line for most of the night tonight, setting them up in a prime matchup. The Sharks, as we know, are very bad on defense, so this one could get ugly for them.

Toronto Maple Leafs 1 – Auston Matthews/William Nylander/Matthew Knies/Morgan Rielly: The Leafs have been scoring in bunches as well as creating tons of chances over their last five games. On top of that, Igor for the Rangers has been absolutely terrible, so this is a fantastic spot for the Leafs’ top line if Matthews plays. If he sits, then they are high risk.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Arizona Coyotes 2 – Nick Bjugstad/Lawson Crouse/Matias Maccelli: The second line for the Coyotes should see the top line for the Sens tonight in a nice matchup. They have been playing well of late, and this is a good spot for them.

New York Islanders 2 – Brock Nelson/Pierre Engvall/Kyle Palmieri: The second line for the Isles is in a great spot against the top six for the Oilers. Edmonton is not great when it comes to defense, so there should be plenty of chances for this group.

Los Angeles Kings 3 – Pierre-Luc Dubois/Alex Laferriere/Arthur Kaliyev: The addition of Kaliyev to the third line makes them VERY interesting, and they should see their chances against a poor San Jose depth tonight.

Philadelphia Flyers 3 – Joel Farabee/Ryan Poehling/Cam Atkinson: The Flyers have been rolling lately, and this matchup tonight against the Devils looks really interesting for this third line. They are the epitome of risk, as they have not been scoring much, but they should see their chances.

It’s hard to believe that we have just two weeks left in 2023. We head into this week with a fairly balanced NHL schedule, one that brings us a nice five game slate tonight. This looks to be a low scoring slate, so we have to nail it. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Ville Husso – Detroit Red Wings: This is a little bit risky, but the Wings host the Ducks, who are struggling, injured, and also on the second leg of a traveling back to back. This one is a lot more about opportunity.

Connor Hellebuyck – Winnipeg Jets: The Jets host the Canadiens tonight in what should be a solid matchup for Helly and the Jets.

Filip Gustavsson – Minnesota Wild: The Wild head to Pittsburgh to face the Penguins, who have been beat up pretty bad for a few games. The injuries piled up, but they are looking to get Rakell back tonight, which should help. However, this is still a good matchup for Gus.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Joey Daccord – Seattle Kraken: Road matchups are usually a little bit tougher to gauge, especially for goalies. However, Daccord has fantastic numbers and this appears to be a game where both teams kind of cancel each other out. Dallas has been giving up goals, but chances have been limited, so there is a chance that the Kraken can pull an upset tonight.

Others to Consider: Anthony Stolarz (FLA)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Winnipeg Jets 1 – Mark Scheifele/Gabriel Vilardi/Nikolaj Ehlers/Josh Morrissey: This line gets a date with the depth for the Canadiens tonight, setting up a fantastic looking matchup. They should see tons of chances, and they should be able to light the lamp a few times tonight.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Detroit Red Wings Power Play – Dylan Larkin/Patrick Kane/JT Compher/Alex Debrincat/Shayne Gostisbehere: The Red Wings have an interesting matchup tonight at home against the Ducks. Anaheim is middle of the pack when it comes to killing penalties, but they take the most penalties per game in the league, so there should be plenty of chances for this unit. Make sure that Larkin is back for sure tonight.

Calgary Flames 2 – Nazem Kadri/Martin Pospisil/Connor Zary: The Flames host the Panthers tonight, and this is a solid matchup for the second line. They should see a lot of the second line for Florida, creating a plus matchup.

Minnesota Wild 1 – Joel Eriksson Ek/Kirill Kaprizov/Matt Boldy/Brock Faber: The Wild top line has a sold matchup with the second line for Pittsburgh tonight. Nedeljkovic has been solid, making it a riskier matchup.

NHL DFS Honorable Mentions: FLA2, DALPP, PIT1, WPG3, MON1

It’s Tuesday, which means we have a healthy sized 10 game slate. This one should feature a ton of options and we won’t have to worry too much about ownership tonight. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Tristan Jarry – Pittsburgh Penguins: The Pens host the Coyotes tonight, who are on the second leg of a traveling back to back. Jarry has some solid numbers of late, and this should be a decent play.

Logan Thompson – Vegas Golden Knights: This is an upside play, as Thompson should see some shot volume. Calgary had a nice night last night from a scoring perspective, but being on a back-to-back should be good for Thompson and the Knights.

Joonas Korpisalo – Ottawa Senators: It’s been a while since we recommended a goalie from Ottawa, but this is a great spot for Korpi, as the Sens host the Hurricanes tonight. Not only are the Canes on a skid, but they still love throwing low danger shots at the net. There should be a good upside potential to this play tonight.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Ville Husso – Detroit Red Wings: This is an interesting spot for Husso and the Wings, as he should see a decent amount of shots. The Blues have been struggling very hard to score of late, so this is an intriguing spot for a low owned win. Don’t play Husso and the Blues in the same lineup.

Others to Consider: Sergei Bobrovsky (FLA), Laurent Brossoit (WPG), Jordan Binnington (STL)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Edmonton Oilers 1 – Connor McDavid/Ryan Nugent-Hopkins/Zach Hyman/Evan Bouchard: The Oilers seem to have finally found their stride, winning their last five and putting up almost 3 goals per game in that stretch. They are producing a ton of chances and Chicago surrenders a ton of chances, so this is a prime spot for one of the best offensive teams in the league. Don’t be afraid to mix in a power play look here or there as well.

Toronto Maple Leafs Power Play – Auston Matthews/John Tavares/Mitch Marner/William Nylander/Morgan Rielly: We are going right back to the well with the Leafs tonight, as they get a date in New York with the Rangers. The preference here is the top line, but the power play look works as well. Igor for the Rangers has been absolutely terrible, so there should be plenty of chances to score tonight.

Tampa Bay Lightning 1 – Brayden Point/Brandon Hagel/Nikita Kucherov/Victor Hedman: The Lightning head west tonight to take on the Canucks in Vancouver, and this line should see the Miller line for most of the night. That creates a great matchup for this line in what should be a pretty fun game to watch.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Ottawa Senators 2 – Tim Stutzle/Drake Batherson/Vladimir Tarasenko/Jake Sanderson: This second line should spend the majority of its night against the second line of the Hurricanes in a fantastic matchup. Ottawa hasn’t quite been a scoring machine, which is why this is a little high risk, but they should be high on your list tonight.

St. Louis Blues 2 – Pavel Buchnevich/Brandon Saad/Kasperi Kapanen: This second line should see a bunch of the third Detroit line in a very nice matchup. L3 is also in play here, so feel free to mix and match.

Philadelphia Flyers 1 – Sean Couturier/Travis Konecny/Tyson Foerster/Cam York: The Flyers head to Nashville tonight to take on the Preds, and this line should be in a good sot. They should be up against the top line for most of the night, but get some chances against the third line, which is where they can really shine. Konecny has been on fire lately.

Winnipeg Jets 3 – Adam Lowry/Mason Appleton/Nino Niederreiter: This third line should see the likes of San Jose’s third line tonight in a VERY NICE matchup. They should see plenty of chances, and will be pretty sneaky. If you aren’t feeling very frisky, Winnipeg’s top line is very much in play as well against the second line for the Sharks.

We ease into the week with a nice four game slate. This slate feels like it is going to be very high variance. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Alexandar Georgiev – Colorado Avalanche: On a night where goalies feel unsafe across the board, Georgiev is one that we can lean on. He appears to carry some of the least risk on the slate, and it still doesn’t feel comfortable. The Avs host the Flames tonight in what should be a winnable game for them.

Jake Oettinger – Dallas Stars: The Stars host the Red Wings tonight, and this is a scary, scary pick. Otter has been terrible of late, but he is one of the most talented goalies on the slate. He should be able to bounce back against a Red Wings team that will be rolling out some pretty ugly lines.

Ilya Samsonov – Toronto Maple Leafs: The Leafs head to New York tonight to face off against the Islanders in what should be a decent matchup for them. This is a good spot for Samsonov.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Ilya Sorokin – New York Islanders: This is a good upside spot for Sorokin who has some solid numbers of late. He gets a home matchup tonight against the Leafs, who should fire a ton of shots his way. The Leafs are good at scoring, so this one could be ugly, but will be very valuable in GPP if he is able to keep them at bay.

Others to Consider: Karel Vejmelka (ARI)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Dallas Stars Power Play – Roope Hintz/Jamie Benn/Joe Pavelski/Jason Robertson/Miro Heiskanen: We are operating under the impression that Roope Hintz will be back for the Stars after sitting out last game with an illness. If he does not go, then Wyatt Johnston goes in his place in this play. The Stars are ranked 8th on the power play and the Wings rank 21st on the penalty kill. The best part is that the Wings are second in the league in times shorthanded per game, so there should be plenty of chances for this group.

Toronto Maple Leafs Power Play – Auston Matthews/John Tavares/Mitch Marner/William Nylander/Morgan Rielly: The Leafs have a great power play matchup tonight against the Islanders. They should see plenty of chances, and we know how lethal this unit can be.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Arizona Coyotes 2 – Nick Bjugstad/Lawson Crouse/Matias Maccelli: The second line for the Coyotes has a very solid matchup against the second line for the Sabres. This is a loose matching situation, so they won’t see them full time, but the matchup will be there to set them up for some upside.

Colorado Avalanche 1 – Nathan MacKinnon/Mikko Rantanen/Valeri Nichushkin/Cale Makar: At first glance, this looks like a grade-A matchup for the Avalanche, but once we dig into the numbers, we find that this line might actually be limited tonight. They will most likely garner some ownership, so you may want some in multiple entries. It is Colorado, after all, so there is always upside around this line.

New York Islanders 2 – Brock Nelson/Kyle Palmieri/Pierre Engvall: The Isles second line has a good matchup against the top six for the Leafs, who, as good as they are offensively, aren’t great at defense. In particular, when this line matches up with the top line, they will see their chances.

On this fine Tuesday, we get a nice eight game slate. This one looks to be a little more open than last night’s was, so we should have a little bit more leeway when it comes to our stacks. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Juuse Saros – Nashville Predators: The Preds are playing well of late and head to Chicago tonight to take on the Blackhawks, who ae finding it hard to score recently. This is a solid spot for Juice, and expect him to be fairly chalky.

Thatcher Demko – Vancouver Canucks: This is a nice, high upside matchup for Demko, as the Canucks host the Devils. Demko should be peppered with shots tonight, giving him a solid floor.

Igor Shesterkin – New York Rangers: The Rangers head to Ottawa tonight, and this should be a solid spot for a win for Igor. Ottawa has been struggling to score of late, and that trend should continue tonight.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Kaapo Kahkonen – San Jose Sharks: Normally, road goalies are not in the mix for a play, but this one looks very interesting. The Sharks head to Long Island tonight to take on the Isles, who haven’t exactly been scoring like crazy of late. Kahkonen has really turned it up recently, sporting a very solid 1.18 GAA over his last five. We have to remember, this is the Sharks, so there is a TON of risk around this pick.

Others to Consider: Alexandar Georgiev (COL), Pheonix Copley (LAK), Ilya Sorokin (NYI)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Colorado Avalanche 1 – Nathan MacKinnon/Mikko Rantanen/Valeri Nichushkin/Devon Toews: This is a premier line in a premier matchup tonight. They play host to the Ducks in what should be a great matchup for them. The Ducks haven’t been great of late, and they now look to be missing a couple of key pieces to their lineup. Toews replaces Makar tonight and should be value lock.

Vancouver Canucks 1 – Elias Pettersson/Ilya Mikheyev/Sam Lafferty/Quinn Hughes: The Canucks host the Devils tonight in the battle of the Hughes family. All three of the Hughes brothers will be on the same ice in what should be a very entertaining matchup. This line should see a lot of the third line for the Devils in a very nice matchup. Consider rolling the power play here also.

Los Angeles Kings 2 – Phillip Danault/Trevor Moore/Kevin Fiala: This second line for the Kings gets a great matchup against the Fantilli line for the Jackets. They should see tons of chances, and this is one of the better DFS hockey lines in the league so far this year.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Nashville Predators 2 – Juuso Parssinen/Luke Evangelista/Kiefer Sherwood: There’s no denying the opportunity for the Preds tonight, and this line gets a fantastic matchup against the second line for the Hawks. Expect them to get a ton of chances, hopefully potting multiple goals. The third line is in play as well, but carry a little more risk.

Detroit Red Wings 1 – Dylan Larkin/Robby Fabbri/Lucas Raymond: Most importantly, thoughts out to Dylan Larkin and his family after the devastating news that came out a few days ago. The top line here for the Wings is in a great spot against the Sabres tonight, but the Sabres are getting Tage Thompson back, so they get a little bit better with him in the lineup.

New York Islanders 2 – Brock Nelson/Kyle Palmieri/Pierre Engvall: The Isles have a good matchup tonight, but if Kahkonen keeps up his play, they may not pan out. There is risk in this one because they should be chalky, so a fade here makes a lot of sense if you are playing multiple lineups.

Welcome to December! We have the holiday season upon us, and the NHL season is humming along nicely. Six games lined up for us to break down tonight, which is a great sized slate. This one feels pretty low scoring, so we have to nail it. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Connor Ingram – Arizona Coyotes: People seem to be continuing to overlook Ingram and the Coyotes, but they are quietly having a solid season. Ingram in particular has some very solid numbers this year, and he should see enough upside tonight on home ice to be worth a look in net.

Jake Oettinger – Dallas Stars: This is a high upside risk play, as Otter and the Stars head to Tampa to take on the Lightning. Tampa has been on a skid lately, bleeding goals at a high rate, so there is definitely win equity in this play. However, the more important stat, shot upside, should be there tonight as well.

High Risk Goalie Pick – Sam Montembault – Montreal Canadiens: This is a very risky play tonight, as the Canadiens give up a lot of chances. Montembault is not the most impressive goalie there is, but his numbers look great recently.

Others to Consider: Antti Raanta (CAR), Logan Thompson (VGK)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Dallas Stars 2 – Matt Duchene/Tyler Seguin/Mason Marchment: This is a great matchup tonight, as this line should see a lot of the top line for the Lightning. The top line has been bleeding chances, and this is a very solid line that has been producing all year long so far. Dallas power play and DAL1 are both in play here as well, so don’t forget them.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Washington Capitals 3 – Connor McMichael/Anthony Mantha/Aliaksei Protas: The Caps are on a tough stretch, scoring less than 2 goals per game over their last five. That makes this a very risky play tonight, but one that will be severely overlooked. Of course, if you play this line, make sure it’s not against Ingram in the same lineup.

Vegas Golden Knights 1 – Jack Eichel/Mark Stone/Ivan Barbashev: This is a solid matchup for the Knights, as they host the Blues. This top line is about the only one you want to target for scoring, but feel free to mix and match the power play unit. To be clear, the power play matchup is not good, but mixing and matching that unit will get you access to both top lines.

Carolina Hurricanes 2 – Jesperi Kotkaniemi/Andrei Svechnikov/Teuvo Teravainen: The second line for the Canes should see a solid matchup against the top line for the Jets tonight. With Brossoit in net for the Jets, this becomes a solid play. You can always opt for a power play look with Carolina as well.

Seattle Kraken 2 – Yanni Gourde/Eeli Tolvanan/Oliver Bjorkstrand: This line is going to see the depth of the Canadiens tonight in a fantastic matchup. They should be considered your top value tonight, but keep them out of any Montembault lineups.

Philadelphia Flyers 2 – Morgan Frost/Bobby Brink/Owen Tippett: The Flyers’ second line should see the depth of the Penguins tonight on home ice, creating a very solid matchup for this line.

We had a very solid day yesterday, so why not get right back into it? Ten games on the slate tonight with a decent amount of options. Let’s look at the best NHL DFS plays for tonight. Good luck!

Goalies

Connor Hellebuyck – Winnipeg Jets: Helly gets the Stars tonight on home ice in what should be a fairly tight game. Based on the numbers, he has been keeping the Jets in games of late, and has a solid upside potential here tonight.

Filip Gustavsson – Minnesota Wild: This is a nice matchup for Gus on home ice tonight, as he gets the Blues. STL hasn’t been bad, but the Wild have been pretty good on defense, which should help the cause.

High Risk Goalie Pick – John Gibson – Anaheim Ducks: Gibson and the Ducks head to Vancouver tonight, where they face the Canucks, who have gone absolutely ice cold. They are 2-3 in their last five, but the Ducks are 0-5. This game, on the surface, looks like a blowout for Vancouver, but when you dig into the numbers, it doesn’t feel that way. Gibson has decent numbers of late, and with Vancouver struggling, this is a sneaky play.

Others to Consider: Anthony Stolarz (FLA), Juuse Saros (NSH)

Lines to Build Around

These NHL DFS lines are considered top plays for the night and can be considered the focal point of your builds. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

New Jersey Devils Power Play – Jack Hughes/Nico Hischier/Jesper Bratt/Tyler Toffoli/Luke Hughes: The Devils are back to healthy, and this is a great spot for this power play unit. They are a top five unit who get to go against the Islanders, ranked 30th in the league in penalty killing. The Isles are middle of the road as far as how often they are short-handed, so the chances will be there for these guys.

Seattle Kraken 3 – Yanni Gourde/Oliver Bjorkstrand/Eeli Tolvanen: This one is a fantastic play tonight. This line should see the second Chicago line for most of the night. That line is atrociously bad at defense in a small sample. There are a couple of things to keep an eye on here, mainly with Bjorkstrand potentially being out. If he is out, this one goes to high risk, but fire them up if the whole line is healthy.

High Risk Lines

These are NHL DFS plays that carry significantly more risk, but could pay off at low ownership. They will be listed by position in the following order: Center/Winger/Winger/Correlating Defenseman (if applicable).

Arizona Coyotes 3 – Alexander Kerfoot/Michael Carcone/Jason Zucker: This line should see a lot of the second Tampa line tonight on home ice. Couple that with the goalie matchup and the fact that Tampa is on the second night of a back-to-back and this line becomes very interesting with no ownership.

Pittsburgh Penguins 2 – Evgeni Malkin/Bryan Rust/Reilly Smith: This second Pens line should see a bunch of the depth for the Predators tonight in a plus matchup.

Tampa Bay Lightning 2- Anthony Cirelli/Steven Stamkos/Michael Eyssimont: In the exact same matchup as above, this line has a lot of potential themselves. The third line for Arizona gives up a lot of chances, so there is definitely some upside potential for this line tonight. Arizona’s goalie, Ingram, has some decent numbers of late, so just keep that in mind.

Minnesota Wild 1 – Marco Rossi/Kirill Kaprizov/Mats Zuccarello: The Wild haven’t been mentioned much so far this year, but for good reason. They have been pretty rough so far, and that resulted in a coaching change. With that, expect this line to come out flying in a decent matchup.
