Canuck Savior – DFS GAMEPLAN 1/12/18

It was an interesting week in the NHL with numerous teams on five day break.  Washington and Carolina are on a old fashioned home and home back to back.  Carolina got the better of the Caps last night.  Calgary goes for six straight in Florida tonight.  Their first line is out of this world.  The Canucks look to get on a scoring streak when they face Columbus tonight.

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.
