FanDuel NHL DFS Picks – December 1st

My pair of FanDuel NHL DFS ncaa picks arrived on Friday night, and I ended up being wrong and right in precisely the exact identical moment.
I mean, you expect to get some production once you pile up that team scores six goals and a teams best line against the Red Wings. Instead, the trio of Travis Konecny, Morgan Frost and Claude Giroux were held off the scoresheet in that one. Wildly disappointing.
I found success in piling the Wild since the Wild and 7-2 blew them apart although Matt Dumba didnt deliver his worth upside with a night that was pointless, and we received a target from each Zach Parise and Eric Staal.
We obtained a combined three assists in the Timo Meier/Erik Karlsson mini-stack and Carter Hart gave us our value with a 32-save functionality in a winning campaign against the Red Wings.
Let us see if we could get back into gain property on tonightmajor slate!
C — Elias Pettersson (VAN) — $7,500 vs. EDM
As they met last night at Edmonton it wont take long to renew hostilities — a 5-2 win by the Canucks — and also the rematch switches to Vancouver tonight the house side searching for the weekend of the Pacific Division rivals. Like the great majority of teams, the Canucks are more dangerous offensively in the home ice and theyre one of the leagues best offenses in the home since their 4.00 goals per match at Rogers Arena checks in at third league wide. For what it is worth, they also own the greatest shooting percentage in 5v5 among groups at home this season with a marker of 10.78%. Whether you think that amounts is in for regression or not, the fact that men like Petterson, Boeser and co. would be the ones shooting all these pucks, it makes sense why theyve been so fatal at home that season. Tallied 31 points and 11 goals in 27 games this year. His 16.2percent shooting percentage is large, but its apparent that hes going to be a man that could keep a higher shooting percentage contemplating he shot 19.4% last season. He was held off the scoresheet last night regardless of the team scoring five goals however with 13 points in 10 home games this year Ill look for him to get back to the tonight.
C — David Krejci (BOS) — $6,800 vs. MON
Together with Patrice Bergeron still missing from the Bruins lineup, its David Krejci thatll last to skate around the top line of the team alongside David Pastrnak along with Brad Marchand. He hasnt really found his way to the teams best power play unit as of yet, therefore I will not be piling the big boys in a more GPP-oriented lineup as the Bruins take on the rival Canadiens for the second time this week as soon as they dismantled Montreal 8-1 before in the week at the Bell Centre. Though the Canucks are the leagues third-ranked home crime, the Bruins will be the NHLs sixth-ranked house offense with 3.71 goals per game in the home and second-ranked offense overall using their 3.69 targets falling behind only the Colorado Avalanche and their 3.73 markers. The Canadiens have been brutalized defensively allowing an average of six goals against four while they have dropped seven in a row overall. Krejci may enter this one over the season, just dont expect many shots with 19 points and five goals. Skating with the Bruins duo that is elite has assisted him to tally six points and three goals on his past four matches with four star matches over his past six. Lots of reasons to enjoy the veteran in this matchup tonight.
W — Brock Boeser (VAN) — $7,300 vs. EDM
Guy up in our three-man Canucks heap is Boeser who will skate next to Pettersson on the groups top line as well as the best power play unit. Speaking of the power play, its the fourth-ranked unit in the league at the moment with a 26.9% reduction although that mark raises a tiny bit to 31.4percent in your home, also great for fourth in the league. It is not likely to be a cakewalk from the Oilers and their league-best 90.4% mark on the penalty kill off from home, however Im very much okay with rostering this elite duo skating together in most scenarios tonight. Its been another quality period for Boeser as hell go into this one with 10 goals and 24 assists in 27 games on the season to go along with 82 shots on goal — great for a hair more than three shots per game, on average. Boeser was likewise held off the scoresheet in last nights win, however he fired six shots on target in that one. He put 12 shots on goal across four matches since scoring, and also you also dont keep this man. He shot just 6.8% in the month of November, so the calendar has shrunk to December I will search for his puck chance to change for the greater, starting tonight.
W — J.T. Miller (VAN) — $6,100 vs. EDM
The Canucks exchanged for Miller at the draft last summer and a few believed they were crazy to include a first-round choice for the forward, especially considering the Canucks were presumed to still be in rebuild mode and not yet prepared to contend. Well, those naysayers have been silenced by Miller as he is enjoying a large start. He has spent a lot of the season skating using Pettersson and Boeser, and thats where well find him tonight. At notching 12 goals and 27 points in as many matches to go along with 65 shots on target he is meshed with this duo. Sure, his 18.5% shooting percentage is a lot greater than his 14% career mark, but Id expect a higher percent skating alongside this lively young duo. Miller was the lone member of the line to become involved in the scoring last night with an assist and 2 shots on target, giving him four goals and three helpers for seven points over his last five games. He is also logging north of 20 minutes each match in a regular year — seven times in his past eight years to be precise. Hes an all-situation participant for head coach Travis Green and the back should have him hockey less than the 21:48 he skated last night, theres no choice but to roll him alongside Boeser and Pettersson in most scenarios.
W — Jake DeBrusk (BOS) — $5,000 vs. MON
Krejci and deBrusk skate on the Bruins second lineup in addition to the power play unit. DeBrusk has dealt with injuries this season, along with his five goals and 11 points in 21 games is certainly nothing to write home about. But, DeBrusk has been much better recently in scoring two goals and five points on his past four games with his first goal in that time coming to the power play, though its his lone power play goal of the season. DeBrusk used to skate over the Bruins high power play last year, and its not surprising that his overall production is down on the season as hes been relegated to the next unit along with his ice season has also diminished as a result. The simple fact that his production has picked up , however, isnt surprising. DeBrusk completed the month of October with a minuscule 3.6% shooting percentage. Before becoming hurt for a few weeks he scored two goals. All toldhe finished November with a 20 percent shooting percentage for the month, but his present 10.4percent mark for the year is well under his 13.8% mark for his profession. Ill let the positive regression continue against a back end tonight.
W — Zack Kassian (EDM) — $4,400 vs. VAN
The Canucks have been fairly good defensively this year, however as long as Kassian is skating alongside Connor McDavid along with Leon Draisaitl to the groups top line hes always going to have tons of value upside at this price and Ill look for that value to show through again tonight since it did last night. Kassian scored his ninth of the season in last nights contest, which readily puts him. In actuality, his present rate is a 26-goal speed over an 82-game year, which could nearly double click the career-high of 15 targets he scored only a year ago. He snapped a five-game goalless drought with previous nights tally while he skated more than 17 minutes to the fifth consecutive game. Again, coaches tend to roll four lines fluidly in the second match of a yearlong group, therefore while Kassian might see that streak end tonight, so Im just not worried as hell still skate each of his own 5v5 shifts alongside a couple of the top players in the world at the moment. That in itself gives me plenty of motive to roll .
D — Charlie McAvoy (BOS) — $4,300 vs. MON
Finishing this three-man Bruins heap is McAvoy who will form a three-man pile with Krejci and DeBrusk at even strength and on the teams next power play unit even though this group is used much less compared to the elite top unit that the Bruins roll out. McAvoy doesnt take the puck much as he has averaged just 1.30 shots per game in his regular season career, and hes just 27 shots in 26 games this season. Still, he scored seven goals in every one of his two seasons in the league. This year, however, McAvoy has yet to score a goal in 26 games played on those 27 shots. Hes handled a shooting percentage of 9.1% and 8.9% in his rookie and sophomore seasons, respectively, and scored one goal per 11.1 shots at that time, normally. In accordance with this mathematics, McAvoy must have two aims by now and can be well overdue to score as a result. Otherwise, he logs a nice quantity of ice time a game at 22:41 while skating alongside the ageless Zdeno Chara and is additionally a shot-blocking machine with 53 blocks on the season, a hair over two each match. I am here for the favorable goal-scoring regression because he takes on a team that has allowed lots of these of late.
D — Darnell Nurse (EDM) — $4,000 vs. VAN
Losing my Oilers mini-stack is Nurse who has fallen off a tiny bit about the offensive side of the puck this year as hes tallied two goals and 12 points in 28 games on the season, however his peripheral stats are just fine. He has put 58 shots on target in these 28 games — more than two per match — also has also chipped in 50 cubes as well. The end result this season is quite like this cross-category upside down he snapped last year when he saw an increased role. He took advantage of the increased function and published 10 goals and 41 points in 82 games to cooperate with 196 shots on goal. He watched top-unit power play McDavid and co. with Oscar Klefbom sidelined, nevertheless Nurse is now skating to the teams next unit, however that device also contains Kassian, thus we receive a mini-stack at even strength and on the Oilers second power play collection. To be honest, Id say he is also due to a positive goal-scoring regression. He has gone 17 games without a purpose and 35 shots. He reached double-digit aims for the first time in his career last year and while he wasnt a lock to do this again this year, he is at least because of find twine any game now.
G — Tuukka Rask (BOS) — $8,800 vs. MON
The Canadiens offensive battles have not been to the identical level as their defensive battles, however they managed only one goal in their meeting earlier in the week with the Bruins and will have a challenging time tonight facing one of the leagues best total and home defenses. The Bruins are really the leagues top-ranked overall defense with 2.31 goals against per game on the season. Theyre tied with the Arizona Coyotes for third in the NHL with only 2.14 goals against per game on home ice despite actually standing 26th together with 32.3 shots against per game to the year. Why the distinction? Well, much of it has to do with this guy here that was confirmed as tonights starter in purpose. Rask enters this only sporting a 2.10 GAA and .931 Sv% over the season round 16 excursions — winning 12 of those. His work at home has been phenomenal since he matches a 1.96 GAA and .935 Sv% over the season across nine outings in the TD Garden. He was a little inconsistent in November, but finished the month powerful with a outing in a 2-1 triumph at Ottawa on Wednesday. Together with the Bruins recorded as -185 favorites to win this 1 tonight, I believe were in great hands with this particular play.
