DraftKings NHL Scoring

- Goal: 8.5 points - Assist: 5.0 points - Shot on Goal: 1.6 points - Blocked Shot: 1.3 points - Shorthanded Point Bonus: 1.0 point - Goalie Win: 6.0 points - Save: 0.7 points - Goal Against: -3.5 points

DK Strategy

- SOG are huge—target volume shooters - Blocks matter—physical D-men have value - Stack correlated players from the same line - Goalies are boom/bust—pick carefully

💡
Pro Tip: In DK GPPs, target 3-4 player stacks from high-totaled games. Correlated production creates tournament-winning ceilings.
