We have a MASSIVE 10 game slate, and there are good options on the board. Stacking will be big tonight, so look for some value where you can, and then load up on the star skaters where you can afford them.
Vegas lines are big when it comes to picking games to target, and that's a good place to start for goalies. When it comes to skaters, goal totals is another main place to start. Usually 5.5 goals is average, so targets games at six, and can look for goalies in games with a total at five.
In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy hockey lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 3/29/18. The lineup picks will range from some of the elite players to mid-priced options and value plays. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to hit me up on Twitter @DFS_Tom. Let's get to it, shall we?

DFS Forwards to Consider
Steven Stamkos - C, TB @ BOS (DK - $6,800, FD - $8,500)
Stamkos' is set to be back in the lineup tonight, after missing the Lightning's prior game. His price has decreased nearly $1K over on DraftKings, so look to roster him there. This is a huge game for both of these teams, as the Bruins sit just one point behind Tampa, with a game in hand. So if the Lightning want to hold onto their top spot, they need to win this game. Stamkos should be back on the top forward line and the top power-play unit, putting him in a good spot, since the Bruins defense hasn't been that great as of late.
Kyle Connor - W, WPG @ CHI (DK - $6,000, FD - $5,000)
Connor is cheap on FanDuel, and in a good spot tonight, so should make a solid cash game play. He is up against the Blackhawks, who are giving up a ton shots, which should lead to scoring chances for one of the best offenses in the league. He is up on the top forward line and the second power-play, but you can use him solo in lineups. Connor has six points in his last four games, and is taking over two shots per game.
DFS Defenders to Consider
Dion Phaneuf - D, LA vs ARI (DK - $4,200, FD - $4,500)
Phaneuf makes a bit of a cheaper option on defense, and has a very favorable matchup vs this weak Coyotes team. Phaneuf is on the second defensive pairing and the second power-play unit, so bit of offensive upside from a cheaper player is never a bad thing. He has three points in his last four games, and if you are looking for a cheaper stack, which should be lower owned, go to the Kings second power-play. Phaneuf is blocking and taking over two shots per game, so plenty of ways for him to reach value.
Alexander Edler - D, VAN vs EDM (DK - $5,000, FD - $5,200)
Edler has 11 shots, and 12 blocked shots over his last three games, but hasn't recorded a single real NHL point. Putting up really solid DFS points, with no real offense to show from it. Now that may seem like a bad thing, but when he does put up a point, he will crush value. I don't hate him as a cash game option, or as a one of in tournaments. Generally I don't go to the Canucks for offense, but he is producing, so just take him.
DFS Goalies to Consider
Devan Dubnyk - G, MIN vs DAL (DK - $7,900, FD - $8,400)
Dubnyk and the Wild are -155 favorites at home, and should be in a spot to win against this struggling Stars team. Dallas has only won two of their last 10 games, and looking to be on the outside looking in when it comes to the playoffs. Dubnyk has only allowed seven goals in his last four starts, and is seeing right at 30 shots per game, so the win should be there along with some upside from saves.
