Boone Jenner, C, Columbus Blue Jackets

DraftKings price: $4,800

The Blue Jackets visit the Montreal Canadiens in the back end of their home-and-home series Tuesday. Jenner proved to be a great value pick Monday with three assists, three blocked shots and two shots on goal in a 5-2 win. The second-line forward has been dependable against Montreal in his career with five points (two goals, three assists), four blocked shots and 15 SOG in four games.

Dylan Larkin, C, Detroit Red Wings

DraftKings price: $5,300

Larkin has been a great service to DraftKings owners in his rookie season; he is second among NHL rookies with 32 points (15 goals, 17 assists) and 127 shots on goal through 47 games. The first-line forward is always a threat to score skating with Justin Abdelkader ($4,500) and Henrik Zetterberg ($5,600), who is tied with Larkin for the Red Wings lead in points with nine goals and 23 assists. Given the affordable price on all three of those players, it is possible to stack the entire line at the New York Islanders on Monday.

DraftKings daily fantasy value picks for Jan. 24

Each day during the 2015-16 season, NHL.com's fantasy staff will identify one player at each position worth owning in DraftKings daily fantasy hockey contests. Based on factors including but not limited to matchups, line combinations, power-play usage, statistical coverage and recent production, we'll provide you with lower-priced options that can help you build a winning lineup.


Mika Zibanejad, C, Ottawa Senators

DraftKings price: $4,400

It's important for owners to dig deep for bargain players with high production potential with only four games on the schedule Sunday. Zibanejad is a fine low-risk option because he’s on a four-game point streak with five points (two goals, three assists) and five shots on goal. The first-line center had a five-game assist streak from Nov. 5-14, so it's not a stretch to expect another good game when Ottawa hosts the New York Rangers.

Leo Komarov, C, Toronto Maple Leafs

DraftKings price: $4,500

Komarov leads the Maple Leafs with 16 goals and 30 points through 43 games this season and can be a low-risk difference maker Tuesday at the Philadelphia Flyers. The first-line forward has a goal, assist and six shots on goal in the past three games and has also done well in games preceded by two days rest with a goal, five assists and 11 SOG in five games.

Jack Eichel, C, Buffalo Sabres

DraftKings price: $5,400

Eichel leads all NHL rookies and Buffalo with 141 shots on goal through 45 games this season and should be a good value pick on the road Monday against the Arizona Coyotes. The second-line center is scoreless in the past three games, but DraftKings owners can expect him to bounce back against Arizona. He had an assist, two blocked shots and four SOG in a 5-2 win at home against the Coyotes on Dec. 4.

Based on factors including but not limited to matchups, line combinations, power-play usage, statistical coverage and recent production, we'll provide you with lower-priced options that can help you build a winning lineup.


Frans Nielsen, C, New York Islanders

DraftKings price: $5,400

Nielsen is in the midst of a four-game scoreless streak after registering at least a point in four previous games but should still be a good pick at home against the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday. The second-line center has seven points (two goals, five assists) and 12 shots on goal in seven career games against Vancouver. DraftKings owners should select Nielsen with full confidence; he has eight power-play points, including a team-leading four power-play goals, through 44 games this season.

Nazem Kadri, C, Toronto Maple Leafs

DraftKings price: $5,500

Kadri should bring a lot of value to DraftKings owners on a four-game Wednesday. The second-line center leads the Maple Leafs with 141 shots on goal through 40 games and is always a viable threat to get some points skating with first-time all-star Leo Komarov, who leads Toronto with 15 goals. Kadri will try to keep his recent strong play going when the Maple Leafs face the Columbus Blue Jackets; he has 13 points (five goals, eight assists), 10 blocked shots and 44 SOG in his past 14 games.

Derick Brassard, C, New York Rangers

DraftKings price: $5,500

Brassard is an amazing value when the Rangers host the Boston Bruins on Monday (7 p.m. ET; NHLN, TVA Sports, SN, NESN, MSG). The first-line center has been fantastic at Madison Square Garden this season with 24 (11 goals, 13 assists) of his 30 points coming in 22 home games. Brassard will try to push his point streak to three games Monday; he has one goal, one assist, three blocked shots and three shots on goal in the past two games.

Mikael Granlund, C, Minnesota Wild

DraftKings price: $4,300

DraftKings owners have to dig deep with six games on the NHL schedule Sunday and Granlund can provide a good return at home against the New Jersey Devils. Although the second-line center has been quiet in two games since scoring a goal and two assists in a 4-2 win Tuesday at the Columbus Blue Jackets, Granlund has done well against New Jersey in his career with three points (two goals, one assist) and six shots on goal in four games.

Joe Thornton, C, San Jose Sharks

DraftKings price: $5,000

Thornton had a season-high eight-game point streak end in a 2-1 loss Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings but DraftKings owners should grab the value-priced veteran at home against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday. Thornton has done well against Toronto in his career with 38 points (10 goals, 28 assists) and 90 shots on goal in 43 games, including one assist and two SOG in a 5-4 win at the Maple Leafs on Dec. 17.
