Check out our FanDuel DFS fantasy hockey daily picks and lineup suggestions for Tuesday January 12th

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 12th. There are eight games on Tuesday, meaning that 16 teams are in action. The first game starts at 7:00 PM EST. Make sure your lineup is set by the time your league starts.

The Pittsburgh Penguins take on the Carolina Hurricanes in what should be a lopsided affair in favor of the Penguins. Make sure to take advantage of this matchup. The surging Chicago Blackhawks (8-2-0 in their last 10 games) take on the slumping Nashville Predators (4-5-1 in their last ten games). That’s another lopsided affair that’s in favor of the Blackhawks. Capitalize on that matchup as well. The Columbus Blue Jackets take on the New York Islanders in a matchup that likely favors the Islanders.

The New Jersey Devils and St. Louis Blues square off in a matchup that features attractive fantasy hockey options on both sides. The San Jose Sharks and Winnipeg Jets both feature solid options as well even though the Sharks just played on Monday night. Keep an eye on the match ups between the Buffalo Sabres and Minnesota Wild, the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Colorado Avalanche, and the Edmonton Oilers and the Arizona Coyotes.

All fantasy hockey points per game averages and salaries are as listed on FanDuel. Be sure to give @Fansided and @FansidedFantasy a follow for updates and fantasy advice.
