Miscellaneous
Pete and Rob are joined by fantasy, DFS & hockey betting guru Chris Wassel to go around the League and identify all the biggest trends. The guys discuss the absence of some top Washington Capitals players, the appeal of the Dallas Stars ahead of their (late) season opener and some of the top buy-low players to target in season-long fantasy trades (Elias Pettersson, Kevin Fiala, etc.). The guys discuss the slow starts for the New York Rangers and Vancouver Canucks and debate whether to drop Pierre-Luc Dubois in fantasy amidst the drama in Columbus. Other topics covered are impressive starts for the Montreal Canadiens and Detroit Red Wings, a keeper league trade offer of Alexis Lafreniere for Jack Hughes, the Pittsburgh Penguins’ goaltending and defensive concerns, the sneaky production of rookie defenseman Ty Smith, best bets and DFS picks for Friday.
