Calvin Petersen Steady In Los Angeles Win Friday

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Calvin Petersen stopped 21 of 23 shots in the Kings 3-2 overtime win over the New Jersey Devils on Friday night.

Damon Severson's Sloppy Play Troubling In Overtime Loss

New Jersey Devils defenseman Damon Severson endured one tough night in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Friday night.

Mackenzie Blackwood Loses In Overtime In Season Debut

New Jersey Devils goaltender Mackenzie Blackwood made his first start of the season on Friday night against the Los Angeles Kings. He stopped 26 of 29 shots in the overtime loss.

Alexandar Georgiev Allows Six Goals In Rangers Defeat

New York Rangers goaltender Alexandar Georgiev has not gotten off to a good start. Friday night saw things get even worse. Georgiev allowed six goals on 39 shots and gave up more than a half dozen rebounds. The Edmonton Oilers came back from a 4-1 deficit and won 6-5 in overtime behind too many second […]

Chris Kreider Keeps Scoring Even In Rangers Defeat

New York Rangers forward Chris Kreider scored his eighth goal of the season and added an assist on Friday night. In the 6-5 overtime loss, there may be a more telling moment. Kreider missed his assignment in overtime leading to the Leon Draisaitl goal for the Edmonton Oilers. From a fantasy hockey standpoint, Kreider played […]

Filip Chytil Heats Up In Overtime Loss

New York Rangers center Filip Chytil endured a rough start to the season but scored a goal and an assist on Friday night. His two points against the Edmonton Oilers and 16 minutes of play belied his best performance of the season. Chytil had four shots on goal and three scoring chances. It is not […]

Jesse Puljujarvi Finds Back Of Net Twice In Edmonton Win

Edmonton Oilers right winger Jesse Puljujarvi scored twice on Friday night during the Oilers 6-5 overtime win. Puljujarvi had three shots on goal and four scoring chances in all. His second goal was a product of tenacity, as he saw a Alexandar Georgiev rebound before anyone else did. Puljujarvi's quick thinking helped him pounce on […]

Leon Draisaitl With Another Three-Point Night For Edmonton

Edmonton Oilers center Leon Draisaitl scored a goal and added two assists to help the Oilers complete a three-goal comeback on Friday night. The 6-5 overtime win was iced by Draisaitl's goal in extra time. Like Connor McDavid, Draisaitl played right around 25 minutes on the night. The center also had two shots on goal […]

Connor McDavid's Three-Point Night Dazzles In Edmonton Win

Edmonton Oilers center Connor McDavid can make anyone run out of superlatives. Connor McDavid scored a highlight-reel goal and added two helpers. Edmonton came back from down 4-1 to win 6-5 in overtime. It does not matter how many goals the Oilers are down in a game because of players like Connor McDavid. He had […]

EPL DFS Lineup Picks for DraftKings (11/06/21) - English Premier League Soccer Matchweek 11 - Part One

Welcome back to “The Kick-Off”! We have a very small slate with many of you familiar to it if you played last season. The slate revolves around big favorites Chelsea -440, followed by the big ceiling potential of Brentford -170. With there only being three matches, it makes lineup building extremely volatile in terms of […]

Jonnu Smith - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith has yet to surpass 200 receiving yards on the season through the first eight contests of the year. The Patriots haven't been able to get much production from Smith and that's unlikely to change. They'll head into a Week 9 matchup against a tough Carolina Panthers defense. A […]

Carlos Hyde (RB, JAX) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 31% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The concept of adding Hyde to your roster has not evoked the same level of enthusiasm as other backs that have been contained in this column. However, his outlook has been altered in the aftermath of the heel injury that sidelined James Robinson. That […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. (RB, SF) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Wilson was included in the weekly recommendations when he was expected to return from injured reserve in late October.

Boston Scott (RB, PHI) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 22% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Kenny Gainwell’s rostership percentage rose from 21% to 66% during the past week after Miles Sanders incurred his ankle injury. Interest in attaining Scott was not nearly as robust, as a byproduct of his limited involvement prior to Sanders’ sudden departure. Scott had only registered […]

Dusty Baker Returning To Astros In 2022

The Houston Astros announced on Friday that they signed manager Dusty Baker to a one-year contract extension for the 2022 season after he came just two wins shy of winning the World Series this year. Next season will mark the 72-year-old's 25th season as a manager in professional baseball and his third with the Astros […]

Hunter Henry - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry saw his four-game touchdown streak come to an end against the Los Angeles Chargers last week. He finished with one reception on three targets for 33 yards in the win. At this point, it seems like Henry isn't going to be anything more than a touchdown-dependent option most […]

Seiya Suzuki To Be Posted This Offseason

Japanese star right fielder Seiya Suzuki will be posted this offseason by the Hiroshima Toyo Carp of Nippon Professional Baseball and made available to major league clubs, according to a source. The 27-year-old will compete with Starling Marte as one of this winter's top available free-agent outfielders after he's been a five-time All-Star in Japan. […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues (PPR only) ROSTERED IN: 10% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Derrick Henry was spotted receiving medical attention with his cleat off in the first half on Sunday but played out the game, only to have us wake up on Monday to news that he suffered a season-ending foot injury.

Adrian Peterson (RB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 7% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Yes, that Adrian Peterson.

Giants Decline Johnny Cueto's Option

The San Francisco Giants declined starting pitcher Johnny Cueto's $22 million option for the 2022 season on Friday, making him a free agent. Instead, the veteran right-hander will receive a $5 million buyout. As he nears the back end of his career, Cueto has become a back-of-the-rotation starter after missing most of the 2018 and […]

Kendrick Bourne - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has been able to make the most of his chances this season. Over the last two weeks, Bourne has four receptions for 35 yards or more in each contest. He is the third option on the depth chart, but remains involved in the passing attack every week. That […]

Javon Kinlaw Undergoes ACL Reconstruction

San Francisco 49ers defensive tackle Javon Kinlaw (knee) recently underwent a successful ACL reconstruction on his injured right knee to fix chronic changes in his knee.

Nelson Agholor - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor has put together two fairly decent weeks after struggling through the first part of the season. Over the last two weeks, Agholor has 50 or more receiving yards in each contest. Although, that streak might come to an end against the Carolina Panthers in Week 9. A defense […]

Dan Arnold (TE, JAX) - Fantasy Football Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If you remember, the Jaguars traded for Dan Arnold a few weeks ago and Arnold debuted for Jacksonville back in Week 4... only to put up a dud of just 4.9 PPR points against Cincy. All he could do back then was […]

Jakobi Meyers - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has not scored a touchdown through the first eight games of the season. Despite that, Meyers has remained a fairly reliable PPR option in fantasy formats. He has seen 68 targets and remains heavily involved in the passing attack. That should remain the case against the Carolina Panthers […]
