Intensity and Grit = Scoring – DFS GAMEPLAN 1/9/18

The Calgary Flames have a couple of players that are heating up and tonight they hope that continues against Minnesota.  Winnipeg and Buffalo battle, and this one has the makings of a high scoring battle.  The Blackhawks also look to regain their playoff form against a lost Ottawa team.

Our goal is that you make us a daily resource and tool in your daily fantasy preparation.  We want you to gain a significant advantage in NHL DFS, I highly recommend you check out RotoQL. It is straight up as good as it gets in the DFS industry.
