NHL DFS Expert Recap and Grading – Week of December 9th
Top NHL DFS Experts
We tracked and graded the NHL DFS experts for three slates last week and NumberFire came out on top followed by NHL.com and DailyFantaySportsRankings. The Overall Leaderboard saw our DailyOveraly Cash Consensus picks to move into second place but still trailing the leader RotoGrinders Consensus.
Check out the top experts on the Overall Leaderboard and as always you can check out the full NHL Expert Standings to make sure that you’re up to speed on who is making the grade. Also, review how all the NHL DFS analysts fared this past week with a day-by-day breakdown of each scored and ranking for the day and the week. We also post the Ownership Percentages by position by count which are used to help project player ownership in our Weighted Consensus article every day.

As a reminder, we are currently gathering selections and publishing the NHL Industry Weighted Consensus article each weekday when there are at least four games on the slate, so be sure to check back about an hour or so before the puck drops for the first game to get a look at the consensus picks for the day.
