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. Tonight, it is more important than normal to pay attention to the opposing starting goalie. Five teams are playing on a back-to-back, and they all have their usual starter sitting after playing last night. On top of that, Connor Ingram is in net for Utah, and he has been quite a bit worse than Karel Vejmelka this season. Three matchups are especially improved tonight. The Islanders have their 4th-string goalie in, who has not even been good in the minors. And the Flames and Rangers have their usual backups in, who are both large drop-offs from their usual starters.
Hunter4ever89: I prefer single-entry and small-field tournaments today. DAL, VGK, and FLA are a few spots that will be very popular to target. I like the idea of over-stacking these spots as a way to get different, and 5-6 man stacks are not out of the question for me. I will be stacking across multiple even-strength lines and using power-play stacks in these lineups.
Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?

About the Author
Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
