NHL DFS: 1/6/23

We have a 5 game slate tonight with only a couple pf heavy favorites. Let’s jump in and see what we can find.

Top Teams to Target

San Jose Sharks – The Sharks get a good draw tonight against Anaheim, the absolute worst team in the league. they allow the most shots and goals per game of any team.

Washington Capitals – With Alex Ovechkin looking to break several records, the Capitals’ offense has quietly jumped into the top 10 in goals scored and shots on goal. The trick with Washington is they do not get a lot of secondary scoring, so really only Ovechkin’s line or the Power Play should be used.

Detroit Red Wings – Florida is giving up 3.43 goals per game and has been terrible on the road. The Wings are shooting a lot more recently and are keeping games. You should find value in Detroit’s top 2 lines.
