Several top NHL targets are available for tonight’s DraftKings daily picks. 

Wednesday is a bit of a sad night if you love fantasy hockey because it’s the last night of contests until next week. With the All-Star Game taking place this coming weekend in Nashville, the NHL regular season goes on break for a few days. Normal action will not start up again until Tuesday, Feb. 2.

Don’t start to worry yet though, as there are four games to keep you entertained this evening. While it’s not a full schedule, some interesting fantasy targets will be available for use tonight.

Toronto travles to take on Tampa Bay in the first game of the night, and while neither team really jumps out, the Lightning have been surging as of late and have some players that will make for popular fantasy picks tonight.

Still sitting with the best record in the NHL, the Washington Capitals are back in action tonight after last playing on Jan. 19. Winter Storm Jonas socked the DC area with nearly two feet of snow last weekend and canceled two of Washington’s games. Alexander Ovechkin and company are likely itching to get out on the ice. Tonight the Capitals face a favorable home matchup with the Philadelphia Flyers.

The final two games of the night feature some interesting fantasy targets. Nashville visits Calgary in a 9:30 p.m. puck drop while Colorado takes on LA in the nightcap.

DraftKings scoring rules and setting apply to all mentions of salaries and fantasy points.
