    Default Fantilli and #1 waiver priority

    For some reason, Fantilli was just dropped in my keeper league and I have the #1 waiver priority. Is it worth using that priority on him? I'd probably drop Marchenko or maybe Terry as he looks to be on the Ducks L3 to start the season.

    My main concern is that with Bouchard and Lafreniere in line for big raises plus extensions kicking in for Slafkovsky and Saros, I may have trouble finding the cap space to keep him. My second concern is FOMO. If I make a waiver claim now, I'll be in a worse position later (say when Ryan Leonard signs his ELC in the spring).

    I think I'd probably rather Fantilli than Ryan Leonard, even though I think Leonard is going to be sick. I would also get the good player now and worry about the cap issues later.

    I would probably drop McBain or Frederic over Terry or Marchenko, but maybe your sig is not up to date as I don't see Marchenko on that list.

    Yeah, apparently my sig was out of date. It's correct now.

    I'm contemplating dropping McBain for Tsyplakov. I could drop Frederic, but I'm a little worried that my team might be too light on hits if I do that.

    If you’re worried about hits, I’d do Fantilli for McBain and ignore Tsyplykov. But I’d probably do Fantilli and Tsyplykov over McBain and Frederic, I think you’ll be just fine for hits.

    Yeah, I dropped McBain for Tsyplakov and will drop Frederic for Fantilli.

    I wouldn't have too many issues dumping Terry in a multi-cat cap league if salary is an issue here. Whatever it takes get Fantilli for the big multi-cat upside.
