NHL DFS: 11/9/22

Four games tonight and no huge favorite.  The most interesting spots are Minnesota at Anaheim and Carolina at Florida. Minnesota struggled last night against LA, but the Ducks are not great. Carolina’s defense is the best at limiting shots, but can they stop Florida?

Top Teams to Target

Minnesota Wild (Implied Goals 3.71) – Minnesota struggled last night against the Kings but I expect them to bounce back against Anaheim.

Vancouver Canucks (Implied Goals 3.71) – Montreal gave up 40 shots to the Red Wings last night and now will start a backup goalie on the second night of a back-to-back.  Vancouver tends to score in bunches and this should be one of those nights.

Carolina Hurricanes (Implied Goals 3.65) – Carolina has been limiting shots and goals and should win this one against an uneven-scoring team in the Panthers.  I don’t expect this to be a high-scoring game, but Carolina has the best chance of putting up some goals.

Dallas Goedert Back At Practice Wednesday
Eagles TE Dallas Goedert (knee) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. That gives him a shot to return for this weekend's game vs. the Rams. We'll keep you updated on Goedert's progress over the next couple of days. He'll be a low-end TE1 option if he suits up on Sunday.

Brian Thomas Jr. A Full-Go Wednesday
Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. (wrist) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. HC Liam Coen suggested earlier this week that Thomas' wrist was a factor in his ugly Week 2. We're still not totally buying that. But the full practice on Wednesday is confirmation that Thomas is in no danger of missing this weekend's game vs. the Texans.

Christian Kirk Gets In Limited Practice Wednesday
Texans WR Christian Kirk (hamstring) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. HC Demeco Ryans said yesterday that Kirk is on track to make his 2025 debut vs. the Jaguars this weekend. He can't be trusted in Week 3 fantasy lineups but is certainly worth a roster spot in leagues of 12+ teams.

49ers WR Jauan Jennings (shoulder/ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
Jennings has been dealing with the shoulder injury since Week 1 and played through it in Week 2, but it is notable that an ankle issue was added to his designation. He began last week not practicing as well, but wound up playing to the tune of 10 targets and a touchdown in Week 2. With several offensive skill players hurt for the 49ers, Jennings is in the WR3 range if he plays in Week 3 against the Cardinals.
