Each day, one of our NHL experts will be providing recommended player picks for your daily fantasy hockey lineups. The goal is to help you build the optimal cash game (50/50s/double-ups/head-to-head) lineup.

Monday, December 11th

We have a very nice six-game slate in the National Hockey League this evening as we kick off yet another week. The Pittsburgh Penguins and the Winnipeg Jets are tonight’s biggest favorites, and none of the 12 teams in action are playing on consecutive nights.

NOTE: Make sure to check the RotoGrinders Starting Goalies Page page prior to game time, to confirm that the goalies listed below are starting.

Tristan Jarry, Pittsburgh Penguins & Connor Hellebuyck, Winnipeg Jets – We have two very good options in goal tonight and I will have exposure to both, Tristan Jarry has done a very nice job filling in for the injured Matt Murray, and he finds himself in a great spot this evening. The Penguins will certainly allow their fair share of shots tonight, giving Jarry 30-plus save potential, as he cruises to an easy victory. If you are not sold on Jarry, I would roll with Connor Hellebuyck. The banged up Vancouver Canucks do not pose much of an offensive threat, and the Jets’ goaltender has been excellent on home ice. Hellebuyck may not see as many shots as Jarry, but he is a lock for the win, and there is shutout potential here.
