NHL DFS: Wednesday 10/12/22

Hockey is back! It is the first week, so we will have some extra variance to contend with, while teams get in sync. To minimize this we will roster top lines to start and look for extreme matchups.  For example tonight we have Chicago at Colorado.  In the offseason, Chicago held a fire sale and traded away all their talent for draft picks. They will be the worst team in the league.  Colorado is the defending champ and has an excellent chance to make the finals again.  Play a lot of Colorado tonight!

Always remember to check your lineups before puck drop. Players, and especially goalies are not confirmed until just before game time.

Recent News

Chargers WR Ladd McConkey (biceps) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
McConkey popped up on the Chargers' first injury report of the week with a biceps injury. He was not visibly hurt in the Chargers' Week 2 win over the Raiders, making his inclusion to the injury report an eyebrow-raiser. We don't have much information on the injury yet, so fantasy managers should stay tuned throughout the week for updates. Keenan Allen and Tre Harris will see boosts should McConkey miss Week 3 against the Broncos.
