NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Monday, April 15

Who is your favorite skater to spend up for in cash games?

Moneyball16: Connor McDavid
ezellmt: Connor McDavid

Who is your favorite contrarian play (when considering price, matchup, projected ownership, etc.) on the board and why?

Moneyball16: John Carlson – Boston is not a good matchup, but I expect Carlson to get huge minutes in this one. Washington is fighting for their playoff lives, and with Rasmus Sandin, Nick Jensen, and Ethan Bear out for this one, the defense is extremely depleted. With Sandin out (who is the normal quarterback on the 2nd power-play unit), Carlson has been getting the Ovechkin treatment and regularly playing the entire power play.

ezellmt: Roman Josi – No defenseman is hotter than Josi right now, who is trying to earn another Norris Trophy. He has 8 points in his last 4 games, including 3 goals. The blocked shots have taken a dip lately, but the shots and assists are still at an elite level. Due to his price tag and a matchup against a desperate Penguins team, I don’t expect him to carry much ownership.

What’s your hot take of the slate?
