DFS Thursday: Good Road Matchup for Washington; Dallas’ Power Play; Werenski and Greaves Top Options

Good day to all my DFS friends! I caught a little bit of the Oilers/Capitals game last night, and then it was early bed here but woke up to a decent cash in DFS. Well, it was only for $1, but the Dodge Ram in that graphic it plays when you win made it seem [...]

DFS Tuesday: Top Line Success for Detroit and Winnipeg; Vasilevskiy as a Backbone

By |2025-11-18T12:16:34-05:00November 18th, 2025|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, Daily Fantasy Hockey Tips (DFS)|

Good day to all my DFS folks out there! I played last night (because of course I did), and it was one of those nights where the lines I picked played good actual NHL hockey, just not what we want for DFS. I had the Carolina second line who I don’t think going into the [...]

DFS Thursday: Islanders and Golden Knights Face Off; Colorado’s Top Line; Thompson’s Pricing

By |2025-11-13T11:34:57-05:00November 13th, 2025|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, Daily Fantasy Hockey Tips (DFS)|

Good morning to all my DFS folks out there! We have a 10-gamer on our hands tonight and while looking over the slate early this morning for whatever reason, City Correspondent Stefon from SNL Weekend Update popped into my very, very scattered mind. “This slate has everything! Injuries, the Sharks, a Colorado smash spot, Oilers [...]

DFS Tuesday: Leafs/Bruins Matchup; Colorado’s Top Options; Demko Returning

By |2025-11-11T14:58:33-05:00November 11th, 2025|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, Daily Fantasy Hockey Tips (DFS)|

Ahoy, to all my DFS peoples out there! I meant to play last night for the four gamers but didn’t have time to 100% put thought into a roster…might have been for the best as I don’t think I would have gotten down to the Predators third line to play Matthew Wood. Tonight, will not [...]

DFS Thursday: Top-Line Targets from Montreal and Dallas; Dostál and Oettinger in Net

By |2025-11-06T10:57:20-05:00November 6th, 2025|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, Daily Fantasy Hockey Tips (DFS)|

Good day to all my DFS people out there! If I sound different right now, it’s only because I’m coming off a big time 41st place finish for a $2.50 reward. Hey, we take those! I played Washington’s top line and outside of Dylan Strome, that line was again very good as they’ve been in [...]

DFS Wednesday – Leafs Top Line, Werenski a Wise Spend, Logan Thompson and more

By |2025-11-05T12:45:12-05:00November 5th, 2025|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, Daily Fantasy Hockey Tips (DFS)|

Happy DFS Wednesday to all my daily fantasy folks out there! I don’t think the casuals are going to be boots on the ground tonight for these five gamers, but I like this slate and if we have more than three games going, then you know where to find me. This is a fun little [...]

DFS Tuesday: Islanders Facing Lowly Bruins; Wild Power Play; Makar and Schaefer Top Defensemen

By |2025-11-04T11:28:26-05:00November 4th, 2025|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, Daily Fantasy Hockey Tips (DFS)|

Happy DFS Tuesday to everyone out there who’ll be on the front lines with me tonight! This is very interesting slate that we have coming up tonight, and I say that because most of these matchups are closer than they appear as far as predicting the outcomes of these games. Still, I have a couple [...]

Saturday’s Game Wagers – Caufield to Lead the Charge in High-Scoring Sens/Habs Contest

By |2025-10-31T15:02:30-04:00November 1st, 2025|Daily Fantasy (DFS) Advice, NHL Game Wagers|

Maybe it’s been the World Series distraction and absolute pandemonium that has been this Toronto Blue Jays playoff run, but our first two goes at Saturday picks have produced lackluster results to the tune of a 4-8 overall record. However, as they say in this sports gambling business: you have to spend money to make [...]
