NHL DFS: The Slapshot – Jan 22nd

Small contests due to NFL tonight on DraftKings.

Alex Ovechkin – Capitals – 8500

Ovechkin has been moderate of late and it feels like he is long due for a hat trick game.

Teuvo Teravainen – Hurricanes – 5600

Hurricanes should roll through the Devils today

Tyson Barrie – Oilers – 4600

This is my favorite game on the slate, we have Barrie getting top power play exposure making him a great play IMO on the blueliners club.

Igor Shesterkin (Rangers)

NYR gives the Coyotes a shots on goal boost tonight, so the SV floor for Igor seems safe.

James Reimer (Sharks)

The Lightning are tired on a long road trip and coming off a bad game vs the Ducks in Anaheim.  One would think they bounce back today and for sure should put up a ton of shots on Reimer, but he offers us a little leverage at a low price and likely facing a good amount of shots.
