What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?

TastefulTides: Single-entry and small-field GPPs are my preferred format. I am going to eat the chalk with the big-name Colorado pieces, despite them playing on a back-to-back. To differentiate, I am going to take shots on underdog goalies. Ilya Sorokin is who I am currently looking to play unless it seems like he gets steamed in terms of pOWN%.

boggslite: Large-field tournaments: On the surface, there is a lot to like about this slate with an exciting contest between COL/EDM and lopsided matchups for the Rangers, Jets, and Predators. Digging deeper, the Avalanche is on a back-to-back, and several teams are shuffling their lines, which throws a minor wrinkle into lineup construction. I plan to spread my exposure around with my main focus on the Rangers and Jets. I also won’t mess around at goalie and will simply lock in Connor Hellebuyck.

Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
