DraftKings NHL Picks: December 27th
Tonight’s slate features 10 games with New York (3.2), Pittsburgh (3.1), Dallas (3), and Calgary (2.9) holding the highest projected team totals. I’ll be targeting players from these teams in cash games. Here are my DraftKings NHL picks.
OTT vs. NYR (-170), O/U: 5.5
BOS vs. CLB (-135), O/U: 5
WAS (-148) vs. NYI, O/U: 5.5
PIT (-157) vs. NJD, O/U: 5.5
BUF vs. DET (-130), O/U: 5

DAL (-145) vs. ARI, O/U: 5.5

DraftKings NHL Picks:
Duncan Keith – CHI (D) – $5500
Chicago will play host the Winnipeg Jets, in a game where the Blackhawks have a projected team total of 2.8 goals. One source of fantasy scoring could come from top defenseman, Duncan Keith. Keith has been very consistent of late, where he has registered at least one point in each of his last five games. You’ll be able to roster an elite defense man, playing over 25 minutes per game, playing on the top power play line, in a favorable match-up, for a discount price.

Mats Zuccarello – NYR (W) – $5700
The Ranger’s have the best projected team total tonight and are currently -170 favorites against the Ottawa Senators. Mats Zuccarello is an enticing option, given his time on the power play and the matchup on home ice. Zuccarello will playing alongside Chris Kreider and Derek Stepan on both the first line and first power play unit. Zucarello currently averages 2.27 shots on goal and .85 blocks per game.
Patric Hornqvist – PIT (W) – $6800
Patric Hornqvist always shows up as one of my best fantasy options, given the offensive fire power for the Penguins, and his volume of shots. In any decent matchup, he’ll often need to be considered, and I think tonight warrants that consideration. Pittsburgh will be on the road tonight, and as of now, Hornqvist will be playing on the second line with Malkin and Kunitz. The Devils may try to match lines against the red-hot, Sidney Crosby, allowing the second line for Pittsburgh to flourish.
Good luck!
