Check out our targets for your fantasy hockey DraftKings daily picks for January 8. 

The following slides are intended to help as you research and plan for your lineup for DraftKings daily fantasy hockey. As always, there are many lineup combinations when playing daily fantasy sports. FanSided has provided you with some players that make the best targets for tonight at each position. You’ll find guys that will put a big hit on your salary cap as well as some value and sleeper picks.

Friday can sometimes a buys night around the league but that isn’t the case tonight with just six games scheduled. There are games that start both early and late, meaning that there will be a variety of contests available to participate in on DraftKings.

Boston starts things off tonight with an important battle against the New Jersey Devils. The teams sit in the middle of the Eastern Conference standings and are separated by just one point. Columbus travels to Carolina in another early game. Although both teams are struggling, there are several fantasy targets to take a look at in that game.

The best team in action tonight is Chicago. The Blackhawks won a home and home against Pittsburgh earlier this week and have now won five straight games. They will look to keep the streak going against a struggling Buffalo team that’s lost five straight.

Tampa Bay takes on Edmonton and St. Louis faces Anaheim in the late wave of games. St. Louis is always a popular place to look for fantasy talent and will be again tonight.

All fantasy points and salaries mentioned in the following slides refer to DraftKings scoring rules and settings.
