Thanks for all the help man. Here’s how I drafted my main league - I came out first in projected value in a 14 team cats league, +/- unfortunately counted: M tkachuk 12th Kaprizov 17th Hamilton 40th Tage 45th Weegar 68th Nuge 73rd Hintz 96th Hagel 101st Batherson 124th Hanifin 129th Annunen 152nd Stolarz 157th Guenther 180th Vilardi 185th Beniers 208th Clarke 213th Quinn 236th (first week stream) Also got offered Bedard (who I want) for Hintz and Vilardi. Gunna do it I think. What do you think? Plus minus hurts but I’m betting on Bedard doing much better than projections offensively and I see it as getting Bedard + a streaming spot. Value those spots a lot, streaming is a huge part of my strategy. With guys like Rakell etc still on the wire I feel ok about it
What's your cat league settings? and yes if general if rakell is on the wire I'd rather have Bedard + Rakell than Hintz + Vilardi. Good insight into your wire and also opening up streaming spots. It plays a big part in my trades as well
@@firedupfantasy G A PPP SHP GWG shots +/- and blocks. I also could be fine with moving hagel. Took him earlier in the draft, hoping some pp time would boost his production as he’s a 5v5 beast, but they don’t even have him on the pp at all right now, and he’s L2
@@firedupfantasy actually might’ve talked him down to just Hintz for Bedard ha. Which was the original offer. Hintz is better ranked for our league settings but obviously I like Bedards upside a lot more. Nice to not have to lose someone like Vilardi prematurely. Deals not done yet tho so otherwise it’s Vilardi vs Hagel in my mind
@@MatthewTaylorBlais I like bedard more than Hintz even in your format so I’d do it. Honestly Vilardi may be better than Hagel, but the powerplay situation is up in the air right now with Hags. If Vilardi wasn’t such a bandaid I would drop Hagel for Vilardi
@@firedupfantasy same. The final deal was Hintz and Vilardi for Bedard and Gustafson. He didn’t even have to add in the goalie but he did after I was chatting up about how much higher Hintz is ranked with our league settings. Was going to accept it anyway. That streaming spot was going to be for goalies streams (at least initially) and Gus is better than anyone on the wire, so it’s a W. Also just love Bedard lol
Walman right now. Sandy on pp1 but not looking good for Chabot but I still think he'll get his looks throughout the year Vilardi over Hagel all day. In terms of Rakell vs Mctavish it depends on your league settings, drop em in the comment
12t cats league G,A,P, PPP, SOG, Hit, Blk, PIMs. I dropped Mctavish for Vilardi before I saw this, so the end of my bench is Neighbors, Hagel and Vilardi, with Cabot as my bench D. Rakell worth it over those guys? Is Cam York worth a look over Walman as a replacement for Chabot? Walman probably has a better chance of holding PP1 all season, but it's the Sharks PP lol Thanks
@@pistolpete8273 I'd rather have Rakell than Hagel at this current moment. Even if Hagel gets PP1 his s/h/b are so bad whereas Rakell's are elite I'd still lean Walman over York. I worry Drysdale takes over that spot at some point
Goals 2.5, assists 1.5, PPP 1, SHP 1, GWG 1, shots .4, hits .2, blocks .4 I have Boone Jenner but I feel like he’s out for a while and my IR is full, wondering who to add for Jenner! Rakell, neighbours, byfield, mark stone, Blake Coleman, are my best options on FA I guess Jack Quinn and Dylan guenther aswell, but I’m more of a fan on dual eligibility players atm
how much waiver $ would you spend ($100 budget to start) to grab Laine in a shots hits blocks cats league, 14 teams. Theres also +/- but i'll just punt it. Some donkey dropped him.
wouldn't put very much. maybe like $10 max? I'd go less. Plenty of value to go around throughout the year especially when we are talking about a s/h/b category league where Laine isn't even that good

Lane Hutson is too high?!? I'd have him too low. The reasoning you are giving here that there are question marks like making the team aren't a thing. He's making the team and will be top PP if not immediately within the 1st month. He'll be Sean Durzi from last year at worst with no peripherals. He will be Quinn Hughes at best. You easily take the swing.
I'm in a Yahoo H2H Categories league (Goals, Assists, Penalty Minutes, Powerplay Points, Game-Winning Goals, Shots on Goal, Hits, Blocks) Would like to add Dylan Guenther. Drop: Elias Lindholm or Macklin Celebrini or hold? Also think I should add a DMan to help with Hits/Blocks. Add Adam LarSson or Simon Benoit? Could drop Aaron Ekblad
Guenther over Celebrini For defensemen, it really depends what your priority is. Larsson will get you more points, shots, and blocks than Benoit. Benoit only has hits over him.
@@firedupfantasy Thanks for the thoughts. First year playing Fantasy Hockey and I didn't find your videos until after our draft. I've got an uphill battle ahead of me...lots of "mistakes" on draft night
Some of the players I mentioned are 2-3% rostered. That means they are available in 98% of leagues I can try to add more deeper league guys but most people are not in leagues with 16 teams or more
Love how you're always able to put so much information but still keep the videos somewhat short! Need to drop two guys for adding Rakell (because stutzle is on my ir+). who to drop and whats your order of dropping these players: bunting, cozens, bertuzzi, zetterlund, fantilli thank you!
tough to answer with plus-minus, it's a stat with so much variance year to year. If it wasn't counted I'd say all three of those guys could be better than Hronek but it's difficult to answer knowing hronek's plus minues last season

Would you rather have Kadri or Jenner?
Jenner is injured long-term so Kadri. Stash Jenner if you can
Lane Hutson is too high?!? I'd have him too low.
The reasoning you are giving here that there are question marks like making the team aren't a thing.
He's making the team and will be top PP if not immediately within the 1st month. He'll be Sean Durzi from last year at worst with no peripherals. He will be Quinn Hughes at best. You easily take the swing.
Highest owned player on the waivers in my league is Adam Lowry.
That’s wild
@@firedupfantasynah its just a 26 man league.
I'm in a Yahoo H2H Categories league (Goals, Assists, Penalty Minutes, Powerplay Points, Game-Winning Goals, Shots on Goal, Hits, Blocks)
Would like to add Dylan Guenther. Drop: Elias Lindholm or Macklin Celebrini or hold?
Also think I should add a DMan to help with Hits/Blocks. Add Adam LarSson or Simon Benoit? Could drop Aaron Ekblad
I'm not fired up obviously, but I'd drop Macklin for Guenther.
Guenther over Celebrini
For defensemen, it really depends what your priority is. Larsson will get you more points, shots, and blocks than Benoit. Benoit only has hits over him.
@@firedupfantasy Thanks for the thoughts. First year playing Fantasy Hockey and I didn't find your videos until after our draft. I've got an uphill battle ahead of me...lots of "mistakes" on draft night
@@WeAllWear42 no problem and good luck! don't worry some of my takes will definitely end up aging poorly lol
How small of leagues are these people playing in, clearly not true competitive leagues. Not a single guy available in my 18 team league.
Some of the players I mentioned are 2-3% rostered. That means they are available in 98% of leagues
I can try to add more deeper league guys but most people are not in leagues with 16 teams or more
18 is pretty ridiculously deep. We've never had more than 12 in mine.
Love how you're always able to put so much information but still keep the videos somewhat short!
Need to drop two guys for adding Rakell (because stutzle is on my ir+).
who to drop and whats your order of dropping these players: bunting, cozens, bertuzzi, zetterlund, fantilli
thank you!
League settings? In general Rakell over Bunting
One League where I have Bunting is KKUPFL and the other is a bangers cats league. would you also say rakell over the other guys I mentioned?
Bruh? Is the video to old for you to go back for comments ?
Ive got hronek as my third defenseman. league counts G, A, P, +/-, PP, SHP. Do i drop him for faulk, clarke or boqvist?
tough to answer with plus-minus, it's a stat with so much variance year to year. If it wasn't counted I'd say all three of those guys could be better than Hronek but it's difficult to answer knowing hronek's plus minues last season
Commenting until you reply to my msg :)
Thanks for all the help man. Here’s how I drafted my main league - I came out first in projected value in a 14 team cats league, +/- unfortunately counted:
M tkachuk 12th
Kaprizov 17th
Hamilton 40th
Tage 45th
Weegar 68th
Nuge 73rd
Hintz 96th
Hagel 101st
Batherson 124th
Hanifin 129th
Annunen 152nd
Stolarz 157th
Guenther 180th
Vilardi 185th
Beniers 208th
Clarke 213th
Quinn 236th (first week stream)
Also got offered Bedard (who I want) for Hintz and Vilardi. Gunna do it I think. What do you think? Plus minus hurts but I’m betting on Bedard doing much better than projections offensively and I see it as getting Bedard + a streaming spot. Value those spots a lot, streaming is a huge part of my strategy. With guys like Rakell etc still on the wire I feel ok about it
