NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Tuesday, December 12
Who is your top overall play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
Moneyball16: Connor McDavid – He is the best player in the world, who is currently red hot, and at home vs. the Blackhawks, it is a great matchup. So many of the guys he correlates well with, like Drasiaitl, Nugent-Hopkins, Hyman, Bouchard, and Nurse project as good values as well.
ezellmt: Connor McDavid – McDavid had just 4 multi-point games in his first 14 (which, by the way, isn’t bad, just bad for him). He’s now had multi-point games in 7 of his last 9 games and has a ridiculous 23 points during that span. As is often the case with him, he’s been far better at home, with 24 points in 12 games versus 12 in 11 games on the road. He’ll face one of the worst teams in the league and should have no problem extending his multi-point streak.
Joda: Connor McDavid – Captain Connor has 23 points over his last 10 games and draws the best matchup of the night on home ice against a sloppy Chicago team. McDavid’s speed should cause chaos for the Blackhawks. McDavid will be popular, but there are plenty of options to differentiate elsewhere.
