2. Ryan Kesler - $5,500
3. Sasha Barkov - $3,900 - top line C in FLA

Oh god I got hooked on this at the end of last season. It had actually slipped my mind. Gambling problem, here we go again.

I was on StarStreet, DraftStreet and DraftKings and DraftKings bought out the other two so all my money was transferred to DraftKings.

Had success just playing low stakes $1, 2 and 5 doubleups. Have $230 in my account and had cashed out $200 already. Lost my $25 on Fanduel, but will probably put more on now that 2 of the sites I was using don't exist.

U kno usually when guys have to make sure ppl know they won money with exact figure of in/out $$, u kno they actually been losing

Therefore I approve the above posts display of humility

Haha I only cashed out once and you caught my Paul since my balance is actually $227.83, I thought if I said $230 I would be more respected.

It's not hard to win money though if you follow hockey, usually quite a few underpriced players to add to lineups and I know others on here have made decent coin too. I played a lot of basketball too, but don't follow MLB or NFL close enough so haven't been playing all summer.

RW Brendan Gallagher

Couple similar ideas, I thought Gallagher was cheap, and have good feelings about Tokarski for tonight.

my general strategy involves:

1. find a cheap but solid goalie option (good backup vs a bad team) eg. Ramo vs EDM
2. load up 3 superstars
3. fill the rest with cheap rookies/kids on good lines
4. two cheap D (usually only about $8000 combined
5. overall focus on big shooters
