Roller Coaster Season has Dubnyk Riding High – DFS GAMEPLAN 1/4/18

Big night in the NHL.  Twelve games highlight the schedule.  It is a little difficult to determine the top producing teams with a large schedule.  I like San Jose in Toronto tonight, and the Lightning in Montreal.  The Islanders and Flyers tend to put up points and Colorado has been on a roll as of late.  Please note that the Florida versus Boston has been postponed due to weather.

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.
