NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Thursday, November 16

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

TastefulTides: Jordan Kyrou – There will likely be better raw-point plays on the slate, but when considering price and matchup, I am going to stick with Kyrou as my top play on the board. The Blues are coming into this game with three straight wins, completely dominating the Avalanche and Lightning in back-to-back games. Now they get to face the worst team in the NHL and are priced far too low. Kyrou will come with ownership, but I think I would lean on being overweight in GPPs.

ezellmt: Jordan Kyrou – This feels strange because I don’t think I’ve listed a player more frequently than Kyrou in the “biggest bust relative to salary” over the last few years. But the matchup, form, and price for Kyrou are excellent, and he’s the best bank for your buck play of the night.

Joda: Nikita Kucherov – After their uninspiring defeat to the Blues the other night, I expect a better effort from the Lightning and Kucherov tonight in Chicago. Nikita has 4+ SOG in seven consecutive games. Look for a multi-point effort from Kucherov.

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