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. An absolutely massive 14-game slate is on tap tonight. I am not going to worry about ownership at all when building out rosters. On the high end, it’s Colorado, Toronto, and Carolina that are my favorite stacks, but you can play Auston Matthews and Nathan MacKinnon as one-offs and then get to some cheaper lines to fill out your squad. Utah really stands out to me as a team that I want to get exposure to. They have one of the highest implied team totals on the slate and are very affordable.

Joda: Single-entry tournaments are my preferred format tonight. With a whopping 14 games on the slate, I would not worry about ownership and look to target some of the best plays, especially with the recent pricing changes and lack of power-play opportunities. There is no shortage of punt options on defense, so it looks like the best place to save salary is to be able to grab multiple superstar forwards who generate shots.

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