NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Tuesday, April 9

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

Moneyball16: Nikita Kucherov
ezellmt: Nathan MacKinnon
Joda: Nikita Kucherov

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

Moneyball16: Joel Farabee – He has been ice cold and in and out of Tortorella’s doghouse, but he practiced on a line with Travis Konecny yesterday, so the minutes should be there tonight. He is cheap and has a good matchup vs. Montreal.

ezellmt: Mackenzie Weegar – This guy is a peripherals machine at the moment and played 29+ minutes in his last game. He’s a constant threat for both shots bonuses, and his 19 goals rank 2nd in the NHL this season for defensemen. The matchup is a dream against the Sharks, so it’s all systems go for Weegar.

Joda: Dylan Larkin – Washington has dropped 6 straight games. Larkin has 3 goals in his last 4 games and has very cheap, fully correlated linemates that allows one to spend up for expensive stacks with high ceilings.

What’s your hot take of the slate?
