Check out our FanDuel DFS fantasy hockey lineup suggestions for Tuesday January 5th

Be sure to check out the slides as they will provide you with solid information about your fantasy hockey options on FanDuel for Tuesday, January 5th. There are eight games today, meaning that 16 teams are in action. The first game starts at 7:00 PM EST. Make sure your lineup is set by then.

Take advantage of the matchup between the Florida Panthers and the Buffalo Sabres. The Panthers lead the Atlantic Division and are going for their tenth straight victory against a Sabres team that has lost four straight games and has won four of its last ten.

I’d recommend avoiding most Chicago Blackhawks players today because the Blackhawks are playing the Penguins on the road and the Blackhawks are a much better team at home. Chicago is 8-8-3 on the road entering today.

The Montreal Canadiens face a favorable matchup today against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Canadiens have Brendan Gallagher back so their offense should wake up. The Flyers have lost three straight and have won just four times in their last ten games.

The Washington Capitals and Boston Bruins square off and they both feature some interesting fantasy hockey options. The Dallas Stars and New York Rangers square off in a matchup between two teams that have struggled over their last ten games. They’ve won a combined eight games in their respective last ten games. Despite that, they both feature attractive options for your fantasy team. Keep an eye on the Winnipeg Jets and Nashville Predators game as well.

All fantasy hockey points per game averages and salaries are as listed on FanDuel. Please remember that FanDuel is blocked in the following states: Arizona, Iowa, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, New York, and Washington.
