Welcome to the daily fantasy hockey picks article for DraftKings, FanDuel, and DraftPot for Saturday, November 21, 2015. It's the biggest night on the NHL schedule and we have 11 games to pick and choose our players from tonight. There are 4 teams(TOR, DET, NSH, CHI)playing on back to back nights and 3 teams(CHI, DET, WSH) playing a third game in four nights. With so many games we will have plenty of value options available to help us fit some top talent, especially goaltender, into our lineups.

Lets now dig in to the matchups and find some core plays for Saturday night.

 

GOALIES

Henrik Lundqvist - New York Rangers @ FLA *PROBABLE*
DraftKings - $8,100 FanDuel - $10,600 DraftPot - 6.48 DPPG
The top goaltender pick almost every time he is between the pipes for the Rangers. He has a nice floor as the Rangers are giving up over 30 shots a game when he is playing and he holds a league best .946 save percentage. The Rangers are -135 favorites on the road in Florida and in a nice spot to pick up a win Saturday night.

Kari Lehtonen - Dallas Stars vs. BUF *PROBABLE*
DraftKings - $7,100 FanDuel - $8,800 DraftPot - 5.80 DPPG
The Stars are the biggest favorites on the board Saturday night at -235 home to the Sabres. Lehtonen has been fantastic to start the year with the push of Niemi behind him. He is 9-1 with a 1.91 GAA and .935 save percentage. Buffalo is young rebuilding team sitting with a -9 goal differential and rank 27th in league scoring.

Also Consider - Andrej Pavelic - Winnipeg Jets

 

CENTER

Tyler Seguin - Dallas Stars vs. BUF
DraftKings - $9,000 FanDuel - $8,800 DraftPot(RW) - 5.38 DPPG
You can really pick and choose your Dallas Stars by site if you plan to stack the leagues top line in your lineups. Seguin is cheaper than line mate Benn on Fanduel but will cost more on DraftKings and DraftPot. The Stars in in a great matchup Saturday at home vs. the Sabres ranked 29th in penalty kill percentage while the Stars hold the leagues #2 powerplay. Seguin is ranked 2nd in the league averaging 24.3 CF/60.

Patrice Bergeron - Boston Bruins vs. TOR
DraftKings - $6,300 FanDuel - $7,100 DraftPot - 45.0 DPPG
Most of the value tonight falls in the winger and defense position so I am loading up on Center. The projection system loves Bergeron to go off tonight in a great matchup at home vs. the Leafs who are playing in back to back nights. He won't break the bank and has tremendous upside in this matchup. Safe in all formats.

Also Consider Mark Scheifele - Winnipeg Jets

 

WINGERS

Artemi Panarin - Chicago Blackhawks @ VAN
DraftKings - $5,700 FanDuel(LW) - $4,300 DraftPot - 4.05 DPPG
Great value play, especially over at FanDuel, for the Blackhawks as he has 21 points on the year and 13 in his last 10 games. He is on a line with Patrick Kane and Artem Anisimov, who has been the Hawks top scoring line.

Loui Eriksson - Boston Bruins vs. TOR
DraftKings - $5,200 FanDuel(RW) - $5,300 DraftPot - 3.58 DPPG
He is currently riding a 3 game point streak and is coming off a hat trick last time out. The Bruins are in a great spot Saturday night to put up some goals on the Leafs playing in back to back games and should have issues wit the leagues #1 powerplay.

Mike Hoffman - Ottawa Senators vs. PHI
DraftKings - $5,100 FanDuel(LW) - $5,900 DraftPot - 4.13 DPPG
A nice cheap wing option playing on a line with Kyle Turris and Bobby Ryan. The most productive line the Sens have and Hoffman sits with 14 points in 15 games this year. The Sens welcome the Flyers on Saturday who are ranked 20th in goals allowed per game. Safe in all formats and makes a terrific stacking option with his linemates.
Also Consider - Alex Burrows - Vancouver Canucks


DEFENSE

Dion Phaneuf - Toronto Maple Leafs @ BOS
DraftKings - $4,200 FanDuel - $5,000 DraftPot - 2.45 DPPG
The offensive production comes and goes with Phaneuf but he provides a good floor on Saturday night vs. the Bruins. The lineup tool has him projected for around 2.5 points on both sites and makes him a great GPP game play.

John Carlson - Washington Capitals vs. COL
DraftKings - $6,400 FanDuel - $6,000 DraftPot - 2.48 DPPG
Nice top end pivot off Erik Karlsson and Brent Burns. He gives you some nice savings while carrying a very similar upside on Saturday night vs. the Avs. He has been on a cold streak with no points in 5 straight games but the shots are there. This is a great spot for him to break out and pick up multiple points.

Also Consider - Rasmus Ristolainen - Buffalo Sabres
