NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Thursday, November 2
Who is your top overall play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
TastefulTides: Connor McDavid – This is a massive slate with plenty of strong options to spend up for. The Dallas Stars are a good defensive team but are playing their second game in as many nights on the road. They had to earn a tough win against the Flames last night, and this will be a much more difficult test. I would give a big upgrade to McDavid and the Oilers in general if Scott Wedgewood is starting at goal for Dallas.
ezellmt: Elias Pettersson – The Sharks are on-pace to be one of the worst teams in recent memory, putting Pettersson and the Canucks in a great spot tonight. He’s coming off a hat trick and five SOG. While he’s unlikely to match that, multiple points is a realistic expectation.
boggslite: Connor McDavid – With Matthews and Hughes drawing tough matchups on the road, McDavid instantly becomes my top overall play tonight. He doesn’t have a great matchup himself, but home ice will allow EDM to control the pace and he could get a few extra PP opportunities facing a veteran DAL team that will be playing on tired legs playing on back to back nights.
