Hello everybody and welcome! We bring you another edition of NHL DFS on PrizePicks and that means our friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in terms of fantasy points or single stats. The goal is to build a 2-player, 3-player, 4-player, or 5-player entry and then select whether or not you want to play for the power play or the flex play. On the power play, you will need to be correct on each of your selections to win, and on the flex play, you will have a little more wiggle room for a chance to win some money back.
Our partners at PrizePicks offer some of the best, and easiest to win, NHL DFS games in the industry. There are no large-field tournaments filled with sharks where you have to get lucky just to place. At PrizePicks, you're not playing against other people, you're just playing against the projections, and the guys at PrizePicks have worked hard to give you really attractive opportunities to make some money. With promo code 'BALLER' you can get a 100% match on your deposit up to $100.
PrizePicks has two types of games. The first type of game is known as Fantasy Score, which consists of selecting various players and trying to determine if they will go over or under their projected fantasy points in a game. The second game is known as Single Stat. For NHL, Single Stat consists of save and shooter shot props in which you determine if the goalie or shooter in question will go over or under their projected save and shot total respectively. You can mix and match players from each type of game in your entry or select all of your plays from the same type of game. Once you have selected your players and props, you can choose the aforementioned flex play or power play option. For today's article, we are going to try and focus on the main board's Fantasy Score and see which players may go over or under their projected point totals. Let's see what the board offers today!

Fantasy Score Point Totals
Sean Couturier Over 3.5 Points. Couturier represents an easy pivot as we can pair him with Claude Giroux if need be on Tuesday night versus the New Jersey Devils. New Jersey is the worst team in the league over the last 4-6 weeks. There is a bit of a risk here but with New Jersey being the only team with a less than 70% penalty kill, the opportunity exists too. Couturier scored a goal on two shots on Sunday but attempted five shots. If he gets a few more pucks on net, the prop is reasonable enough at 3.5 to take the over on.
Miles Wood Over 2.5 Points. Picking on Philadelphia, in turn, is not a bad idea when there is a matchup between two of the worst defenses in hockey. Philadelphia has the 30th ranked penalty kill at home and has allowed the second-most goals per game in the last month to yes, New Jersey. The winger has points in three of his last four games and has 11 shots on goal on 17 attempts over his previous two starts. Something overlooked is the two blocks in each of those contests -- against Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Wood can be risky but he tends to produce his best against the Flyers. It is an attack and be attacked kind of game when looking at props. Take the low-hanging fruit, I mean, over.
Sam Reinhart Over 3.5 Points. This may be a shot worth taking because of Reinhart's splits of late. He has 14 shots on goal. Remember how valuable shots on goal are. The fact that he is Buffalo's go-to player does not hurt either. The center will be set up for many opportunities against a New York Rangers team that just gets a little lackadaisical at times. This is a game where both teams expect to give up their share of high-quality scoring chances. This should lead to goals as well. It is why Reinhart may get at least a goal or assist maybe even two. This is also a reason why the Mika Zibanejad prop at 4.1 points is one to look at as well. Zibnejad remains one of the hottest fantasy players in the last month. The New York Rangers are on a roll offensively and could score four or more on Tuesday night again.
Sidney Crosby Over 4.6 Points. This looks to be an extremely dicey option on Tuesday night considering on Sunday, the Pittsburgh-Boston game resembled something out of "Night Of The Living Dead". Yes, Crosby assisted on the game-winning goal by Bryan Rust but that was it. That was the scoring. The hope is that the teams open things up a little on Tuesday night and play the kind of hockey two top lines should produce. Anyway, this should be interesting. Crosby does have points in four straight games and has 3+ shots on goal in three of those contests. The Rust prop is at 3.6 and might be a little easier to swallow on Tuesday night.
Jason Robertson Over 4 Points. In a breakout season for Robertson, when does one sell off a bit? We took the over twice and the under once last week. Naturally last Tuesday, we took the under, and then he fired in a goal and assist during the first 20 minutes against Detroit. Playing with Joe Pavelski helps and even on a back-to-back scenario, it is worth taking a shot against Carolina. Dallas showed on Monday night that maybe their offense is getting potent again at the right time. This is one pick that could actually push. Robertson hit exactly four points on Saturday. Our projection has him at 4.5. Take the over but this will be close.
