NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Tuesday, February 6

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

Moneyball16: Elias Lindholm – Lindholm has had more success when he’s been able to be a passenger on a line as opposed to the driver. After the trade to Vancouver, he has a great driver again with Elias Pettersson. I expect his post-All-Star break to be a lot better than his pre-All-Star break.

ezellmt: Elias Lindholm – The matchup against the Hurricanes isn’t great, but the price and role are right for Lindholm. He should benefit from playing with better players and finishers, especially Elias Pettersson. I fully expect this to be the lowest price he’ll have for the rest of the season.

Joda: Brad Marchand – I think if anyone gets played from Boston, it will be Pastrnak. Marchand went into the All-Star break on a heater with 5 goals in 5 games. Calgary also lost one of their best two-way players in Elias Lindholm. Marchand makes sense in large-field tournaments at low ownership.
