NHL Lineups Today: How to Find Starting Lineups & Projected Lines

Finding today's NHL starting lineups and projected lines can make or break your fantasy hockey and DFS decisions. Coaches typically finalize line combinations 1–2 hours before puck drop, but where do you get that intel?

Why Lineups Matter for Fantasy Hockey

Line combinations directly impact player value. A forward on the first line and first power play unit will outscore the same player on the third line. Goalie confirmations are equally critical—starting the wrong netminder costs you wins and save percentage.

Where to Find NHL Lineups Today

Center Ice Hub aggregates today's NHL lineups in one place. Our NHL Lineups Today page shows every game with starting goalies (when confirmed), projected lines, and direct links to each team's full depth chart. Data is updated hourly as game time approaches.

How Often Are Lineups Updated?

NHL lineups are typically confirmed 1–2 hours before puck drop. Some coaches announce earlier; others make late scratches. We pull from multiple sources and refresh hourly, with more frequent updates on game days.

Using Lineups for DFS and Season-Long Fantasy

  1. Check goalie confirmations – Don't roster a backup. Use our Starting Goalies page for the latest.
  2. Identify top-line deployment – First-line and PP1 players have the highest ceiling.
  3. Track late scratches – Coaches can change lineups minutes before warmups. Refresh close to lock.

For full team depth charts and line combinations, browse our Team Lineups page. Each of the 32 NHL teams has a dedicated page with forward lines, defense pairs, power play units, and penalty kill combinations.
