NHL – DFS Expert Consensus – March 18
NHL DFS Picks – March 18
Tuesday night delivers a nine-game NHL DFS slate. There is a wide range of options at each position to consider in Cash games but only two teams have at least three players on the list to consider stacking in GPPs.
The Weighted Consensus for the NHL uses each expert’s current DailyOverlay score to generate a Weighted Consensus ranking. To calculate the Weighted Rank Score, each expert’s DailyOverlay score for players is weighted on a sliding scale from 1 to 5 with the top expert in the current standings being weighted with a five while the last place expert is weighted with a one. This method gives the higher-rated experts picks more weight when compiling the overall player rankings for the day. We will include all players that have a Rank Score over 6.0.
