DFS Hockey: Weekend showdown recap and Tuesday 2-game slate review

Showdown Review is a review of DFS hockey games. Eeli Tolvanen and Luke Kunin were underpriced for their roles on PP2 and PP1/L1. Tolvans grabbed a goal on Friday and Kunins agoal on Saturday. Mario Ferraro was wildly undervalued because DraftKings didn't update his price based on his TOI.

Friday DFS Hockey – 2nd place and a big win. In total on Friday I took down $134 on $22 in entries. That’s a 6x return and 2 second place finishes on 3 separate lineups created.

Dave changed his strategy for the Nashville vs San Jose game. He put a captain goalie in the lineup to give himself an out in case Saros wins the game and takes the captaincy. It cost him the 5 points needed for a 1st place finish.

Mario Ferraro played well for DFS hockey. He was underpriced for 20 minutes a game. He won points with volume and value. The strategy is still sound. Good strategy and good process will lead to better results. DSS Hockey: Weekend showdown recap and Tuesday 2-game slate review.

There are just two games today: Rangers/Lightning and Golden Knights/Kings. Vegas/LA has the higher total, but it's still higher than the other games.

There are two games on DFS hockey slate: 2 C, 3 W, 2 D, 1 G, and 1 UTIL. The strategy for forwards is to find the best per-dollar plays among the PP1/L1 players that can be stacked. Vincent Trocheck is the lowest priced center among this group at $5,100.

Kings PP1: Arvidsson (2L), Kopitar (1L) and Fiala (L). Vegas PP: Smith (3L, 1L and 2L): Smith, Eichel, Stone, Stephenson, Theodore, Panarin, Trocheck, Fox, Kucherov, Point, Stamkos, Killorn, Hedman. New York PP 1: Kreider ( 1 l, 1 L), Zibanejad ( l), Panararin ( 2 l). TBL PP : Kucharov ( l)

Panarin is too cheap for DraftKings. The Rangers are playing Vasilevskiy. Alex Killorn is enticing. Phil Kessel is cheap and has potential to far exceed his salary. LA Kings are favored in the game. They play at home. Kopitar is a solid value. Kempe is wildly underpriced for his expected TOI. Stephenson is also cheap.

Last season Vegas was 4th in CF/60 with 61.04, LA had 60.52, and Tampa 54.45. Vegas is middle of the road team in shot attempts on the powerplay, while LA and LA are efficient with their shots. Rangers were 31st in the CF-60, but they were a top shot generating power play with 107.29.

Last season Vegas was 4th in CF/60 at 61.04, with only 45.63% of their shots getting through. LA had a 60.52 CF-60, and 14 shots per game on average get blocked. Tampa is also middle of the road in shot attempts on the powerplay, but they are efficient with their shot blocking. Rangers were 31st in the CF, they were a top shot generating power play at 107.29%.

Igor Shesterkin is the cheapest goalie today at $6,900. Vasilevskiy is highest priced at $7,000. Logan Thompson is next highest at$7.200. Quick is at £7,.600.

Defensemen are easy to punt if you find the right ones that play big minutes, block shots, get powerplay time and are mis-priced. PK units aren't up on Left Wing Lock yet, but you can look at PK time from last year on any website and get an idea.

Alex Pietrangelo was second on Vegas in SOG (227) and blocked shots (164). Matt Roy was third on LA with over 100 blocked shot. Victor Hedman was 2nd on Tampa in BS (219) and Sog (129). Jacob Trouba led the Rangers with 177 blocked hits and was 3rd in the S OG with 204.
