NHL DFS Goalies
Linus Ullmark- DK $8.4K | FD $8.8K
Opponent - Los Angeles Kings
Should Bruins netminder Linus Ullmark start Thursday, he is a must-pick against the Kings. The 29-year-old has won nine straight starts, and his record is an incredible 17-1-0. He also has a 1.83 goals-against-average and a .938 save percentage. Boston is at home against Los Angeles, who lost to Buffalo 6-0 on Tuesday.
Others To Consider (Cash/GPP): Andrei Vasilevskiy (DK $8.3K | FD $8.2K), Matt Murray (DK $7.8K | FD $8.9K)
NHL DFS Centers
Centers
Connor McDavid -DK $9.2K | FD $10.9K
Opponent - St. Louis Blues
Connor McDavid posted a goal and registered three assists in a 6-3 win over Nashville Tuesday. He has ten goals and 14 assists in the last ten contests. McDavid should be able to keep scoring with Edmonton going up against St. Louis, who have given up 108 goals which are the most in the Western Conference.
Tage Thompson -DK $8.7K| FD $10.5K
Opponent - Colorado Avalanche
Sabres centerman Tage Thompson is on fire, logging three power-play points in a 6-0 win over Los Angeles on Tuesday. He has netted ten goals and added eight assists in the last ten games. Thursday, he could light the lamp again as Buffalo's opponent, the Avalanche, are winners of two straight but are 4-5-1 in their previous ten games.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Jack Hughes (DK $7.8K | FD $9.6K), Auston Matthews (DK $9.0K| FD $10.0K)
NHL DFS Wings
Jason Robertson -DK $8.3K | FD $8.8K
Opponent - Washington Capitals
Jason Robertson's Tuesday consisted of picking up an assist in a 4-1 Dallas win over New Jersey. The 23-year-old winger has 23 tallies, 20 helpers, and 124 shots on goal with a plus-18 rating in 30 Dallas contests. Robertson and his teammates face off against Washington, who is playing better of late, but they have given up the third most goals in the Eastern Conference with 92.
David Pastrnak -DK $8.7K| FD $10.3K
Opponent - Los Angeles Kings
David Pastrnak has been hot all season long, registering 19 goals and 20 assists in 28 Bruins games. Last Boston contest, the winger tallied an assist and seven shots on goal. He has a favorable matchup at home going up against Los Angeles, who lost 6-0 to Buffalo on Tuesday.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Mitch Marner (DK $6.6K | FD $7.0K), Leon Draisaitl (DK $8.4K| FD $10.4K)
NHL DFS Defensemen
Roman Josi- DK $8.5 | FD $8.9K
Opponent - Winnipeg Jets
Nashville Predators defenseman Roman Josi has recorded three goals and six assists in the last ten contests. He's coming off a two-point game where he registered four shots on goal and blocked two shots. The perennial all-star defenseman should continue to get on the scoresheet as he has done for most of his career.
Josh Morrissey- DK $5.8K | FD $7.2K
Opponent - Nashville Predators
Winnipeg Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey has been a big part of the team's success. Morrissey has a six-game point streak logging seven points in the process. On the season, the 27-year-old has produced five goals and 27 assists in 28 contests, and he should continue to roll against Nashville.
Others To Consider (CASH/GPP): Cale Makar (DK $7.5K | FD $7.6K), Rasmus Dahlin (DK $7.4K | FD $8.7K)
