Episode notes
Hart Signing Is Long-Term, Not Immediate
- Carter Hart signing gives Vegas a potential long-term option but he cannot play until Dec. 1 and hasn't played since Jan 2024.
- Aiden Hill remains the likely starter unless he struggles, so short-term fantasy impact is limited.
Treat Hart As A Future Handcuff
- Consider Aidan Hill as the primary fantasy goalie in Vegas for now and treat Hart as a dynasty/deeper-league handcuff.
- Avoid expecting Hart to immediately supplant Hill unless Hill struggles markedly.
Attack Buffalo In Week With Four Games
- Do target Buffalo players this week since they play four games and have momentum after consecutive wins.
- Consider rostering Zach Benson and Josh Doan who are producing in larger roles.
