NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings Expert Survey for Thursday, March 26
Who is your favorite skater to spend up for in cash games?
TastefulTides: Nikita Kucherov
boggslite: Nikita Kucherov
Joda: Nikita Kucherov
What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
TastefulTides: Single-entry GPPs are my preferred format. The matchups for both the Lightning and the Kings are simply too good to pass up. There are some really good value options on the Kings, so you don’t have to go with their more expensive options if you don’t want to. That will make it easy to pay up for the studs on Tampa.
boggslite: I’m playing single entry tonight. I plan on building around Nikita Kucherov and Tampa’s top power play in a juicy matchup against Seattle. There is plenty of value to take advantage of in order to pay up for Tampa’s top power-play unit from teams like the Flames, Kings, and Flyers.
Joda: Small-field GPPs – Prize pools have taken a nosedive, so we do not need to be perfect. I am leaning into more mini-correlations than full-line correlations. My favorite team is Tampa Bay and the unstoppable Nikita Kucherov. I also like Minnesota’s top guys against a heavily penalized Panthers team starting their backup goalie. The Kings are also a late-hammer option in a must-win game against Vancouver’s rock-bottom PK%.
Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
