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?

Moneyball16: Large-field GPPs – I think Detroit is a good leverage spot. Dallas rested players last game and will likely rest players tonight as well. This gives Detroit a solid projected total, and given how good Dallas is when fully healthy and how good their goaltending has been lately, I don’t think many people will be playing Detroit players.

Joda: Large-field tournaments are my preferred format tonight. Montreal should dominate roster construction as they look to clinch the final playoff spot in the East tonight at home. Their top line rates as good value, Lane Hutson is a budding superstar, and highly touted prospect Ivan Demidov will make his debut. The hype is real, and at just $2,500, I find it hard not to include him in most rosters. Vancouver has some contrarian pieces like Pius Suter and Conor Garland for tournaments as well, as they take on Alexandar Georgiev and the San Jose Sharks.

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