Daily FanDuel Fantasy Hockey Picks: Apr 20, 2015

The exciting Stanley Cup playoffs continue on Saturday, with four series playing game #2, in a split afternoon / evening schedule. The afternoon games feature two series where there the home teams (Tampa Bay and St. Louis) should be very motivated to win and even their series. The evening games have the league’s top two teams (NY Rangers and Anaheim) looking to duplicate their wins from Thursday and take a big lead in their series.

For daily fantasy hockey today, there will definitely be goals scored across these four games and the key will be sorting out which teams and lines will do the scoring. In the article today we’ll break things down and help to determine the teams and players to target, for building winning lineups on FanDuel. 

 

DFS Hockey Analysis – DET @ TB

- Detroit went into Tampa Bay on Wednesday night and stole the game. The Wings were outshot 46-14 but they got a huge performance from goaltender Petr Mrazek

- The real question today is – can the Wings do it again? The Lightning will be determined to win this game and not go into Detroit down 2-0

- Lightning star Steven Stamkos fired eight shots in that last game but didn’t hit the scoresheet. However, there is a good chance that he and the other Bolts top offensive players come through today

- The Red Wings will rely on the experience and elite two-way play from Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg to try to take a commanding lead heading back to Detroit
