Daily Fantasy Hockey DFS Value Update – April 22

San Jose Sharks at Los Angeles Kings

The Sharks thoroughly dominated the Kings for most of the first two games of this series. The Kings are a very quality team, though, so I’m not ready to go hog wild on the Sharks just yet.

A few notes:

• The Sharks are shooting 18.2-percent at five on five. That is ludicrous.
• The Kings are shooting 9.8-percent at five on five. If they can get more pucks and traffic to Antti Niemi, they can do well.
• The Sharks moved Joe Pavelski to the third line and that gives them scoring depth that the Kings might have trouble dealing with in their bottom six forwards.

I would look at these first two games as an aberration and not the norm of what to expect for the rest of the series. In fact, I expect the Kings to have things a bit settled down for tonight and while I won’t pick Jonathan Quick, I will avoid stacking the Sharks.

I would just again load some cheaper players to round out GPPs or just pick one or two guys for 50/50s. I do think tonight is a low-scoring game.

Good luck!
