NHL FORUM

Hello Grinders, and welcome to the 2018-19 National Hockey League season!

This season at RotoGrinders we will continue to showcase the best NHL content in the business, with our amazing LineupHQ tool leading the way. This is pretty much your one-stop shopping for everything NHL. However, we did not stop there. Back from last season we have the Grind Down (with our new game filter format!), Player Projections, Consensus Value Rankings, Expert Survey, GrindersLive shows (every Tuesday and Thursday), Premium Discord and a revamped Lineups Page.

LineupHQ

In case you are not familiar with our LineupHQ tool, it will become your primary hub and the fast track solution to help solve the challenges of daily fantasy sports – from researching across twenty different sites, to toggling multiple tabs all day long, and of course trying to keep track of all the information you have accumulated throughout the day. With the LineupHQ tool, everything you need will be on one single page – your headquarters for building your lineups every day! On top of that, we will be making it easier to stack, with new NHL stacking features to come.

This is truly a new era of DFS – an era of advanced sophistication available to all players, where you can build one lineup or one hundred lineups with ease, using a suite of tools that are unrivaled in the industry…all without leaving a single page.

What does this mean for RotoGrinders Premium?

While all RotoGrinders users will have access to LineupHQ, there are some offerings that only RotoGrinders Premium subscribers will have available to them on the LineupHQ page:

Premium Player Pool Filters: Each day, three of our top NHL minds will share their favorite plays on the night, in three specific categories:

“Core Plays” – the top foundational options for all formats

“GPP Plays” – a curated list loaded with upside options and contrarian pivots

“Salary Savers” – some of the plays to start with, using a “bottom-to-top” roster building approach

Each day, some of the top NHL minds in the industry will also write up Centers, Wingers, Defensemen and Goalies that fill a variety of lineup-building needs. Premium subscribers will be able to find all of this information in LineupHQ – both in a filtered format (want to see what all our experts think of the viable goalie options that day? – you’ll be able to quickly find this in one spot!), and individual player profiles on LineupHQ (want to know what our analysts think of Auston Matthews on opening night? – you’ll be able to hover over his name in LineupHQ and find that information!).

Player Projections – Daily projections from the best NHL minds out there

Grind Down – In-depth, game-by-game breakdown, headlined by two-time FSWA NHL Writer of the Year nominee, John “jmbwngfn” Britt. Note: the Grind Down will feature some free content daily, however you can only read the entire Grind Down through our premium package.

Consensus Value Rankings – The Classic returns! Point-per-dollar rankings from RG analysts and contributors

Expert Survey – Our analysts answer slate-specific questions to provide a glimpse inside the mind of top DFS players

Premium NHL Discord – Featuring Pepsi7 and others, who will spend time in chat, answering all of your DFS hockey questions

From start to finish of this NHL season, it does not get any better than RotoGrinders Premium!

And pricing remains ridiculously low! For access to ALL sports (NFL, MLB, NBA, PGA, and NHL) for one site, you pay only $29.99 per month! If you’re a year-round DFS player, a 12-month subscription for ALL sports for one site is $299.99 – almost 20% savings over the monthly price! If you are strictly looking for NHL premium content throughout the regular season for one site, it can be yours for $169.99.

Any stacking features coming?

This

Yes. We are adding some stacking features to the LU HQ tool, we are working on it as we speak.

cool

please add NHL under fantasy draft in LHQ.

Just went up today, we are working on it.

thanks!

Is line matching included?

That is a tough, but we are trying to figure it out. The problem is line matching constantly changes. There are no guarantees from game to game. Coaches do not give that information out as easily as they do the lines for each game.

I always just assume the home team will try to get their top line away from the other teams checking line.

True but if you have an idea on what the teams have done in the past. I assume some have always matched differently as the skaters are better at defense or puck control etc. I found a site that offers that at times, but Roto gives me all the sports and don’t have time to flip back and forth. would prefer to stay here.

Just reflect whatever you’re showing on the starting lineups page, it’s better than nothing. Not having it is equivalent to not showing batting order spot for MLB.

The Grind Down from John for opening night was fantastic. Are most of these features going to be for FD/DK? I am a Yahoo only player with the premium subscription there and a lot of the premium content ends up being FD/DK (or both) only. Just curious.

I used lineup HQ (for Yahoo of course) for the NHL and we’ll see. I found it a bit odd the optimal lineup had Mike Smith #jacob-markstrom)Jacob Markstrom”:/players/jacob-markstrom-14516 as my two goalies…but who am I to question the almighty lineup HQ…lol. It sure seemed smarter than me for MLB season….

Ahhhh, combo premium on everything. :( sigh

Any updates on stacking in LineupHQ?

Please look at adding the stacking feature even if it is manual.
