Hey everyone. After a few days off I'm back with today's NHL fantasy projections. Our slate for tonight consists of only 4 games, which means we need more precision in picking the right players. Read below for Wednesday's projections and keep reading to understand how it all works.


The site that I like to use is FanDuel and the projections are based on their main slate of games . So you have 2 tiers of lineup for the Center (C), Wings (W), Defenseman (D), and Goalie (G ) positions. Depending on the slate of games I will usually name up to 3 players for each position. The first tier is made up of players from a moderate to a high price. The second tier is made up of low to moderate price players. You'll need a combination of both tiers to use your total salary wisely. One heads up is that you may find the same goalies on both tiers and that's cause goalies are fairly high in price.


Tier One

C: John Tavares 8500 Nathan MacKinnon 8600 Auston Matthews 8600

W: David Pastrnak 7800 Claude Giroux 7800 Jakub Voracek 7500
