NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Sunday, December 31

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

Who is your top overall play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?

Moneyball16: Nathan MacKinnon – At home versus San Jose is easily the best matchup on the slate. No one comes close to allowing as many goals as they do. When you combine that with being one of the best players in the league and one of the hottest, you have a great play. He is expected to play on a line with Rantanen and Drouin, who are also some of the best plays on the slate as well.

Joda: Nathan MacKinnon – There are some other nice plays tonight like Kucherov and McDavid, but MacKinnon gets the nod. He has been sensational all season long and gets the best matchup of the night against the San Jose Sharks. These teams met two weeks ago and MacKinnon put up 36 DK fantasy points.

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

Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
