NHL DFS Expert Recap and Grading – Week of January 13th
Top NHL DFS Experts
We graded three NHL slates this week and DailyFantasyInsider had the top picks for the week. They were followed by a pair of pick sets from DFSArmy. Meanwhile, the overall leaderboard remains unchanged at the top with RotoGrinders Consensus, DailyOverlay Cash Consensus, and RotoGrinders Lineup Builder occupying the Top 3 spots.
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 score 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.
