NHL DFS Picks: Thursday's Top DraftKings + FanDuel Plays ...

Let us not waste more time and get to our NHL DFS Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel fantasy hockey lineups.DraftKings – $5,900FanDuel – $6,400After a slow start to his season, Pettersson has 3 points in three games and is skating with his usual line mates in Brock Boeser and J.T. Miller. The return of Jordan Staal could dampen that a bit, but it’s clear that Trocheck is their second-line center now, and because of lack of power-play correlation with his line mates, he makes an ideal one-off for tournaments or cash games.DraftKings – $3,500FanDuel – $4,300Despite being listed as ostensibly the third-line center, Dvorak pushed past 20 minutes in the team’s last contest because he plays in so many situations for them. Tonight we are going to find out tonight what he can do with 17-18 minutes on the top line with a pair of the best players in the world.DraftKings – $2,700FanDuel – $3,600Though he’s slotted on Buffalo’s second line, be wary of such designations, as Cozens has averaged a bit under 12 minutes a game over his last three contests. He is fine for salary relief.DraftKings – $4,800FanDuel – $5,100Werenski has zero assists in seven games this year, and though he’s not a big assist guy — mostly because his team doesn’t score a lot of goals — that is sheer bad luck, and he’s set for a turnaround in this regard. The two big reasons for playing him tonight are his price — $4,800 on DraftKings, and that’s likely because of his bad luck — and the matchup against a Florida team that has had a hot start out of the gate (though they have played just one game in nine days because of cancellations from other teams in their division).
