NHL DFS Analysis and Picks for 12/13/23

There are five games scheduled for tonight's NHL games. Pittsburgh and Winnipeg are the only two teams playing back-to-back games. The defensive-minded Bruins will be taking on the high-scoring Devils. The Sabres will start their Western road trip in Colorado, and the game could potentially see 10 goals. Let's take a closer look at tonight's matchups.

DISCLOSURE: Make sure to monitor the NHL news feeds for the latest player status and injury news.

 

DraftKings and FanDuel Goalies - NHL DFS Picks

Sam Montembeault - DK $7.4K || FD $7.6K   

Opponent -  Pittsburgh Penguins

Montembeault has scored at least 13.6 fantasy points in his last six starts. In four of those starts, he has scored at least 24 fantasy points. The variance in the goalie position from slate to slate is unpredictable, so I prefer to choose a goalie who is playing well and is at home. Moreover, a team playing on a back-to-back is a good spot to target.

 Others To Consider (Cash/GPP):
  • John Gibson- (DK $7.1DK || FD $6.9K)

DraftKings and FanDuel Centers - NHL DFS Picks

Brock Nelson - DK $6.2K || FD $7.2K

Opponent - Anaheim Ducks

Nelson is a hockey player who is often underestimated, and despite his price increasing to over 6K tonight, he will likely go unnoticed. However, I'm not concerned about that. The reason being is he is up against a Ducks team who is starting a road trip on the East Coast. The Ducks have a tendency to give up numerous high-danger chances and shots per game. Therefore, Nelson and his line are in an excellent position to have a remarkable game tonight.

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP):

  • Ross Colton (DK $3.9K || FD $4.7K)

 

DraftKings and FanDuel Wings - NHL DFS Picks

Kevin Fiala- DK $6.3K || FD $7.1K 

Opponent - Winnipeg Jets

Fiala is a player who either performs exceptionally well or not at all, and recently he has been underperforming when it comes to scoring goals. However, he does shoot the puck frequently, and his line on home ice is always a threat to the opposing team. Tonight, they are up against the Jets, who are playing on back-to-back nights. Despite the risk, I am willing to bet that Fiala will be able to score a goal tonight.

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP):

  • Frank Vatrano (DK $6.8K || FD $7.8K)

 

DraftKings and FanDuel Defensemen - NHL DFS Picks

Bowen Byram - DK $3.7K || FD $4.1K 

Opponent - Buffalo Sabres

"We will need some players from this game. If you are looking to stack your team elsewhere, Byram is a good and inexpensive option for tonight's game. Although his potential for high scores is limited, considering his price and the game environment tonight, I will have some shares of him. He has the ability to take some shots and score some points, but it may not always be consistent."

Others To Consider (CASH/GPP):

  • Jordan Spence (DK $2.6K || FD $3.8K)
