Vancouver Value on Defense – DFS GAMEPLAN 12/5/17

The NHL is back in full swing tonight with 10 games. Some difficult picks tonight.  Lots of good goalie values, and I look for Stamkos to explode and Edler to be the money man on defense for the Canucks.

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.
