FanDuel DFS Fantasy hockey picks January 4th

High Salary RW

Vladimir Tarasenko – St. Louis Blues ($9,100): Alex Ovechkin is still the best Russian player in the NHL, but Tarasenko is starting to make a strong case for that title with 40 points and 23 goals in 39 games. He has 11 points in his last ten games and he’s going against a Senators team that allows a ton of shots on goal. He averages 4.4 fantasy points per game.

Mikkel Boedker – Arizona Coyotes ($6,700): Boedker has been one of the hottest players in the league over his last ten games with three goals, seven assists, and 29 shots on goal. He has 30 points in 38 games this season. It’s worth noting that he only has five points in 20 career games against the Canucks, but he’s been playing well enough lately that he’s still a viable option. He averages 2.7 fantasy points per game.

High Value RW

Tyler Toffoli – Los Angeles Kings ($5,800): Toffoli’s five game point streak came to an end against the Flyers, but he’s still an excellent option for tonight due to a matchup against the Avalanche. He has ten points in his last ten games and has six points in seven career games against Colorado. He averages 3.8 fantasy points per game.

Kyle Palmieri – New Jersey Devils ($5,000): Palmieri has four goals in his last five games and seven points in his last ten games. He now has 30 points in 39 games this season and has been a fantastic acquisition for the Devils. He goes tonight against Detroit. He averages 3.4 fantasy points per game.

DAILY PICKS: Go with Tarasenko and Toffoli.
