DFS: Wednesday's Center Value Rankings
Here are theScore's center value rankings for Wednesday, December 2:
Top Options
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Leon Draisaitl (EDM) | vs BOS | 10 |
| David Krejci (BOS) | at EDM | 10 |
| Patrice Bergeron (BOS) | at EDM | 10 |
Boston at Edmonton should easily be the highest scoring game of the night. Both teams rank in the bottom six in goals against and these three centers are vastly underpriced on most DFS sites.
Best of the Rest
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Nazem Kadri (TOR) | at WPG | 8 |
| Bryan Little (WPG) | vs TOR | 8 |
| Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (EDM) | vs BOS | 7 |
| Steven Stamkos (TB) | at ANA | 7 |
| John Tavares (NYI) | vs NYR | 6 |
| Ryan Getzlaf (ANA) | vs TB | 6 |
Kadri scored Monday against Edmonton. While his point total isn't where he wants it, his 94 shots on goal give him great DFS value, and Winnipeg is allowing the second-most goals in the league. Leafs goaltender Garret Sparks recorded a shutout in his NHL debut, but that magic may wear off if he takes the net on the road in Winnipeg.
Nothing to See Here
| Name | Opponent | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Ryan Kesler (ANA) | vs TB | 5 |
| Frans Nielsen (NYI) | vs NYR | 5 |
| Derick Brassard (NYR) | at NYI | 5 |
| Oscar Lindberg (NYR) | at NYI | 3 |
| Brock Nelson (NYI) | vs NYR | 3 |
| Mark Scheifele (WPG) | vs TOR | 3 |
| Tyler Bozak (TOR) | at WPG | 2 |
| Tyler Johnson (TB) | at ANA | 1 |
Kesler is on a four-game point streak, but it's still tough to trust the Ducks right now. Nielsen is having a great season but as long as Henrik Lundqvist is in net it's best to steer clear. Johnson (undisclosed) will likely play but it's always risky to rely on a player in his first game back from injury.
