    Default Buchnevich dropped - worth top waiver priority use?

    I just saw Buchnevich dropped in my pool in signature, and I have 3rd waiver priority (as drafted 10th out of 12). I'm tempted to use that waiver priority, and thinking Buchnevich is an upgrade over Zucker or Beauvillier...I don't have JVR listed there since he has so many shots, just feels like he has to break through right?

    I don't think he's a clear enough upgrade to make the move. Zucker & Beau both give you more SOG & Hits as well as similar production

    me too

    Seems like Buchnevich is getting dropped quite a bit, which is kinda funny considering the pre-season he had and the Rangers have only played three games so far this year. Seems like owners are getting more impatient with the lack of Ranger games than the lack of production from Buchnevich.

    I would take Buch over Beau, however I don't think it is a big enough upgrade to use your top waiver priority on him. I would wait it out and hope he becomes a free agent.
