What's New for Fantasy Hockey '19
-
New Default Waiver Settings for Public and Pro Leagues
-
In a significant change for public and pro leagues, continuous waivers with FAAB (Free Agent Acquisition Budget) will now be used to claim players instead of Free Agents.
-
You will make claims to add players for the next day same as ever. However, claims are resolved by price paid and ties are broken by waiver priority.
-
This is much fairer than awarding players to the first player to make the claim. Sorry West Coasters, we have to be fair to everyone.
