2014/15 FanDuel & DraftKings - Daily Fantasy Hockey Thread

[LeanMachine]

I got Boyle on my line-up from the Fartnell deal...looking forward to seeing those PP points of his.

[Bruyns]

Not playing

yes he is.

also, every other injured player whether they're playing or not are still listed.

They can be slow at updating at times. Noticed Stepan wasn't listed the first night he was back too.

[KapG]

One of the benefits of using fanduel is that they are really good adding players

[lightupdadarkness]

I've done some fanduel better never using DraftKings.....how is that?

[Bruyns]

Very similar to Fanduel, but +- and PIMs aren't included in the scoring. Those are the two industry leaders so they have the highest volume, but I have won more money on the smaller sites since it is easier competition for hockey IMO. Won a lot on Starstreet last season before DraftKings acquired it and have won $200 in less than a month on fantasyup which has no rake until seasons end.

[Shep]

DraftStreet was the best site of all time, it's a shame it was bought out.

[Bruyns]

Been over a month since my last brag about DFS

Up over $1300 now since the season started. Been destroying FantasyUp and their no rake promotion and am up over $800 on there. Also transferred $10 to Fanduel a couple weeks ago and won $80 in a tourny the first night and have my $10 up to $120. Haven't had as much luck on DraftKings lately so holding pretty steady on there, but cashed out $300 and still have $200 left.

Nice Bruyns.

Are you playing NHL on FantasyUp?

BTW, I've been doing a little write-up for Daily Fantasy Hockey. Usually just Mon-Fri, if you're interested in starting up, you can follow along for my daily picks here: http://shepfx.wordpress.com/

I missed this somehow but your write-ups are very in depth. Have you been getting much traffic or any opportunities from this? I use rotogrinders to check their NBA analysis and don't even bother with their NHL since the people doing it don't seem to know what they are talking about half of the time and I always think I know more than they do.

Had a nice night tonight winning about $200 putting me up about $2200 this season. Still haven't been playing big tournys which limits my winning potential, but I have been winning consistently. Most of my action is on FantasyUp and VICTIV, both have overlay and I find the smaller sites have softer competition especially in NHL as the majority of the small user base are more concerned with NFL and NBA.

[Shep]

If you're winning, who cares what you play.

I haven't got much traffic yet, some random dude on Twitter was helping me a bit, posting my stuff on his website but it was a bushleague site so I just stopped sharing it with him haha. A couple of us are starting our own website devoted to NHL DFS because useful info is scarce out there, so I'll be sure to link you guys once it's up and running.

RG Hockey info is a joke. They don't know much, and are constantly reciting useless shit. "Ovy has scored in each of his last 2 games, I expect him to stay hot tonight". Thanks bud, that is really going to help somebody new to NHL DFS.

I've temporarily stopped writing until after the ASB. Taking a week off from DFS and it's way easier when I'm not writing about it. Mentally exhausting playing and writing every day, so the week off I should be able to come back refreshed.

Check out the (soft) launch of our NHL DFS site. We'll have daily plays, a morning recap of tournaments from the night before, etc. As we grow, we'll do podcasts, shows with our picks, etc.

Here is the site: http://www.dailypucktalk.com/

Here is my article from yesterday: http://www.dailypucktalk.com/daily-fant ... march-6th/

There are articles up for today too. Take a look. It's still a work in progress, we're going to do big things over the summer, but wanted to get it up for the end of this season.

Cheers and enjoy! Spread the word!

I'll be sure to check this stuff out. Thanks for the heads up

[Bruyns]

What's your username on Victiv? Up $700 there and usually good overlay.

[Bruyns]

Top notch analysis too, site looks good!

[Shep]

My name on every DFS site is "donkshow"

on Victiv I only play the $25 GPP. I max enter it, 2 entries when it's $500 gtd and 4 entries when it's $1000 gtd. What's your Victiv name?

[Bruyns]

Only 20 people in the $10 and $20 doubleups on there tonight. Should be an easy $30 finishing top 15 out of 20. I enter that $25 one sometimes, but haven't lately.
