Below is a breakdown of Thursday’s three-game NHL DFS slate followed by example lineups. 

Teams to Target

For tonight's schedule, you're going to want to hone in on Nashville, Montreal, and Buffalo. Montreal is giving up almost 40 shots per game, so I would look to stack Eichel, Reinhart and Dahlin. Buffalo isn't necessarily much better defensively, so considering Danault, with Kovalchuck as both have been seeing nearly 20 minutes per night and pairing them with either Weber or Petry. I lean toward Petry, the minutes are similar, but his price is lower and has performed better over the last 14 days. When looking at Nashville, I think you start with Josi. His price is high, but if you're planning around it you can make it work. From the forward group, I look to a combination of Duchene, Grandlund, and Johansen.

Value Plays

Kyle Turris - He has seen ice time recently that is closer to the 1st line, and he has had points in 2 of his last 3 games, so he has some value going against the Devils tonight.

Phil Kessel - Kessel still sees top power-play time and is priced at just $4500 on DK. His FD price is up at 6600, so he is less favorable there, but keep in mind the Kings have been giving up 4 goals per game over the last 2 weeks against just 25 shots on average.

Oliver Ekman-Larson - on DK, I like the value of OEL. Much like Kessel, he sees enough minutes, and power-play time for there to be an upside, especially at his cost of just $4300 on DK and $4800 on FD.

Jeff Petry - Petry in particular on FD is a great value, where he is just $4800. His price is in the 5k range on DK, which is usable, just less of a value.

Goalies

The projected goal totals tell me that point me to Jack Campbell being a really nice play in GPP's tonight. The Kings have been giving up goals but not a lot of shots. He is $6900 on DK and $7200 on FD. I think Adin Hill, has a similar opportunity, but at a higher cost. In the other games, I think you can look at Carey Price. He has played better as of late, however, Vegas has the goal totals being higher than the LA vs Arizona game, but Buffalo hasn't played well recently so this is a good opportunity for Les Habitants to get the win.
