NHL Optimizer

Use our free NHL lineup generator to build optimized DraftKings and Fanduel lineups. This tool takes our top rated DFS projections and adds on the ability to lock, filter, and exclude players and teams. Lock in your core players and then hit 'Optimize' to build multiple lineups instantly. Our optimizer supports both Classic contests as well as Showdown and Single-Game formats.

All-in-one tool for DFS research

In addition to our projections, the DFF lineup builder also tracks the latest vegas odds, player injuries, starting goalies and starting lineups. We recommend checking right up to 10 minutes before the start of a slate to make sure any lineups you created with DFF are still factoring in the most up to date information and projections. Our projections are updated constantly throughout the day, with a lot of activity happening in the final hour before the start of a slate.

Filter and Configure

The power of the DFF lineup generator is in the advanced filtering and configuration options. Filter and exclude both players and teams through easy to use sliders and settings. Configure the optimizer to activate stacking, max players per team, offense vs defence rules and more.
