Kari Lehtonen Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

Kari Lehtonen is the most expensive goalie on DraftKings ($8,400), but his price is quite comical on FanDuel at $7,800. If looking for salary relief on DraftKings, it is slim pickings unless interested in a Vancouver goalie to pull off the upset. Would it be that surprising? Not really. After all, Dallas has dropped seven consecutive contests, and the last time these teams met in February, Vancouver embarrassed the Stars 6-0 in Dallas. Nonetheless, Lehtonen is easily the top goalie option tonight as Vegas has tabbed Dallas as a lofty -275 favorite. With many other games looking like coin flips, grabbing the secure win is the recommended option in cash games and even in tournaments given the shutout potential against a poor-traveling Vancouver team.

It is not a great night for goalies, and we really dont have one that I trust 100%. With that being said, I will probably roll with Kari Lehtonen in cash games. The Dallas Stars netminder is not only inexpensive, he should also cruise to a victory. The New Jersey Devils are playing their second game in as many nights, and they will be without their best player in Taylor Hall. The Devils have struggled to score goals lately and I expect more of the same tonight. Lehtonen may not see a ton of shots, but the win is a lock, and I cant see him allowing more than two goals. If you are not confident rostering Lehtonen, Scott Darling would be next in line.
