NHL DFS Expert Recap and Grading – Week of January 27th
Top NHL DFS Experts
It has been a couple of weeks since an NHL DFS Expert Recap article with the All-Star break last weekend, but the top of the Overall Leaderboard looks mostly the same as it did before the break with RotoGrinders Consensus in the lead followed by our very own DailyOverlay Cash Consensus picks. However, third place is now a tie with DailyFantasySportsRankings pushing their way into a tie with RotoGrinders Lineup Builder.
This past week had three gradable slates and saw DailyFantasyInsider deliver the top picks for the week with NumberFire and RotoGrinders Consensus rounding out the Top 3.
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.
