Blackhawks Bring in Roman Kantserov for Next Season
The Chicago Blackhawks are expected to sign 21-year-old forward prospect Roman Kantserov to an entry-level contract, ESPN's Ryan S. Clark reports. Kantserov's current team, Metallurg Magnitogorsk of the KHL, announced on Friday that it had terminated his contract, clearing the way for him to start his NHL career. Kantserov was selected 44th by the Blackhawks in the 2023 draft. He had a spectacular KHL campaign with Metallurg in 2025-26, scoring 64 points (36 goals, 28 assists) in 63 games. Kantserov finished the regular season ninth in points and led the league in goals. It remains to be seen how well Kantserov's game translates to the NHL, but he has the potential to make an immediate impact with the Blackhawks next season.

Mason McTavish Set to Rejoin Ducks Lineup Sunday
Anaheim Ducks center Mason McTavish will play in Game 4 against the Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports. He has sat out the last two games as a healthy scratch. McTavish landed in the press box after his four-game point streak ended in the second-round opener against Vegas. During his first postseason campaign, McTavish has recorded four points (one goal, three assists), 14 SOG, 19 hits, and a plus-one rating in seven appearances. He has generally made a positive impact and should have something to prove on Sunday night as the Ducks try to tie the series at two on home ice.

Lukas Dostal to Remain in Ducks Crease Sunday
Anaheim Ducks goaltender Lukas Dostal will start Game 4 against the Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday, Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune reports. Ducks head coach Joel Quenneville will keep faith in Dostal despite his awful Game 3 performance. Dostal wasn't himself on Friday night, allowing three goals on eight SOG in the first period. Ville Husso took over the crease after the first intermission, stopping 17 of 19 pucks. Before Friday's Game 3, Dostal had allowed two or fewer goals in three straight contests, and the Ducks will hope to see him return to that level. Overall, the Czech netminder has recorded a 3.48 goals-against average and a .876 save percentage this postseason, winning five of nine starts.

Zach Bogosian Back for Wild Saturday
Minnesota Wild defenseman Zach Bogosian (lower body) will re-enter the lineup for Game 3 against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday, Michael Russo of The Athletic reports. The 18-year veteran didn't play in Game 2 due to a lower-body injury. Jeff Petry will be scratched to make room for Bogosian, who will skate with Jake Middleton in Saturday's game. In seven playoff appearances this year, Bogosian hasn't recorded any points, but he does have eight blocks and eight hits on his account. He has been limited to 13:09 of ice time per game, and Bogosian's workload is unlikely to increase on Saturday night.

Jesper Wallstedt Starting Game 3 Against Avalanche
Minnesota Wild goaltender Jesper Wallstedt will be back between the sticks in Game 3 against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday night, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports. Wallstedt has been Minnesota's No. 1 this postseason, but Filip Gustavsson took over the crease in Game 2. Wild head coach John Hynes gave Wallstedt some time off after he allowed eight goals in the series opener against Colorado. It was a really tough night for Wallstedt, but he has been solid overall this postseason. The 23-year-old Swedish native holds a 4-3 record and has allowed 2.81 goals with a .903 save percentage. He'll look to bounce back Saturday on home ice, where Wallstedt has won two of three playoff outings.

Joel Eriksson Ek Not Ready to Return Saturday
Minnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek (lower body) will remain out on Saturday against the Colorado Avalanche, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports. The Swedish forward is close to returning from a lower-body injury, but he won't be available for a third consecutive game on Saturday night. As a result, Danila Yurov will continue in a second-line role and skate with the second power-play unit. Yurov has recorded assists in each of the first two games against Colorado, earning his first career postseason points. In six playoff appearances, the 22-year-old Russian rookie has also registered five SOG and nine hits.

Owen Tippett Won't Play Saturday
Philadelphia Flyers winger Owen Tippett (undisclosed) will remain sidelined on Saturday for Game 4 against the Carolina Hurricanes, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports. Despite regularly participating in practices and morning skates, Tippett has yet to play in the series due to an undisclosed injury. He was again on the ice on Saturday morning. With Tippett on the shelf, the Flyers have lacked sharpness offensively in Round 2, scoring just three goals in three games. Their season will end Saturday night with another loss, putting added pressure on players such as Trevor Zegras and Travis Konecny to spark the offense.

Cooper Kupp a Dynasty Hold into the Start of 2026 Season
While playing in 16 games in his first season with Seattle, Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp failed to crack 100 Half-PPR fantasy points for the first time in his career. Dating back to his final two seasons in Los Angeles, he has now finished outside the top 40 at the position in three straight years, though 2025 marked the first time he fell so low without missing significant time. At nearly 33 years old, his once dominant fantasy days are clearly behind him, but at RotoBaller's dynasty WR118, he has now entered into the keep/drop conversation as managers struggle to find bench space for the incoming crop of rookies. Given the relative lack of receiver talent the Seahawks have behind Offensive Player of the Year Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Kupp should be held into the season wherever possible, a task made easier by the lackluster 2026 rookie class, but should an injury occur ahead of him on the depth chart, name recognition should still be enough to make him an immediate sell candidate.

Jaylen Warren a Safe Dynasty Depth Piece with Insurance Upside
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren has finished as the RB25 or better in two of the past three seasons, and his well-rounded game has allowed him to thrive in whatever running back room he's a part of. While sharing the backfield with Najee Harris, Warren excelled in a pass-catching role, finishing with the fifth-most running back receptions in the league in 2023. With Kenneth Gainwell sopping up more than 80 targets in 2025, Warren churned out a career-high 958 yards on the ground en route to an RB16 finish. In free agent acquisition Rico Dowdle, the Steelers have added another back capable of working in both the run and pass game, but unlikely to dominate in either, at least not to the extent of Warren's previous teammates. Warren and Dowdle could see something close to a true 50/50 split in 2026, making the former well worth his current dynasty cost of RotoBaller's RB30, even if his ceiling is capped in a timeshare. However, should injuries force him into a larger role, Warren has proven upside, finishing as the RB15 or better in five of his nine 2025 games with at least a 50% snap share, and never below RB26.

Christian McCaffrey a Risky Dynasty Hold Who Still Exceeds His Trade Value
When on the field, San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey represents the biggest mismatch in fantasy football. Even in a down year by his own metrics, McCaffrey finished as the RB1 in 2025, his fifth top-three finish in as many healthy seasons. He touched the ball 44 more times than any other non-quarterback in the league, and while that sort of volume is exactly what makes him the most dominant asset in the game, it also makes him one of the riskiest. With McCaffrey taking 311 carries in 2025, it's important to note that he has handled more than 100 attempts in back-to-back seasons only one time since starting his career with three fully healthy campaigns, and he has never played more than six games following a season in which he carried the ball at least 220 times. At almost 30 years old, and with his past injury history pitted against his league-winning upside, he comes into organized team activities as RotoBaller's dynasty RB9. Given the way his last season went, it's likely he is already rostered by a contending team in most leagues, and while he profiles as an obviously risky hold, he remains, paradoxically, far too valuable to sell for the prices he's currently fetching.

Brian Thomas Jr. A Risky Buy-Low with Immense Upside
After a 2024 rookie season in which he caught 87 passes for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns, Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. saw his productivity crater in year two, and he now heads into his third season as RotoBaller's dynasty WR28 after reaching as high as WR5. While much of his rookie season success came with backup quarterback Mac Jones under center, the disconnect between Thomas and Trevor Lawrence was staggering in 2025, especially with Lawrence playing as the fantasy QB1 over the final ten weeks of the season and popping up in MVP conversations. Among receivers with at least 75 targets in 2025, only five players had a lower reception percentage than Thomas, while only Jerry Jeudy had more drops. With the Jaguars boasting one of the deeper receiver rooms in the league, there is no guarantee of Thomas getting back to his 2024 form, but the traits that made him a first-round pick and the fantasy WR4 as a rookie have not gone away. With his dynasty value having taken such a hit, the upside he represents could make him one of the best buy-lows for managers willing to gamble on talent.

Tre' Harris a Dynasty Hold That Could Require Patience
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tre' Harris caught only 30 passes for 324 yards and a touchdown as a rookie, often left off the field in favor of Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston, and Keenan Allen. With significant changes coming to the Chargers' offense, there is a path for the 2025 second-round pick to take a significant step forward in year two. New offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel takes over for the far more conservative Greg Roman, which could mean more downfield opportunities for a player who averaged more than 17 yards per reception in his two years at Ole Miss. The Chargers also spent four of their eight 2026 draft picks on the offensive line and are expected to have both of their Pro Bowl tackles back and healthy for the start of the season, presumably allowing longer developing plays to operate more frequently on schedule. With Allen no longer on the roster, Los Angeles added speedy receiver Brenen Thompson in the fourth round of the NFL Draft, which is a win for Harris in terms of immediate target distribution, though the two young receivers could operate in similar roles. At RotoBaller's WR66, Harris is a dynasty hold who has the skills to become a weekly fantasy contributor. He could also spend another year buried on the depth chart should the Chargers elect to bring in additional pass catchers, ever a possibility given the team's recent hosting of free-agent tight end David Njoku, while Allen also remains on the market.

Aidan Miller Suffers a Potential Setback
Philadelphia Phillies prospect Aidan Miller has suffered a setback in his recovery from a lower-back injury that has sidelined him for months. He had recently resumed fielding ground balls and performing rotational exercises, but he has now been shut down from all baseball activities. It remains unclear whether the team is simply being extra cautious with its top prospect or if there is an underlying issue preventing him from taking another step forward. The 21-year-old shortstop first began experiencing back issues late in the 2025 season, causing him to miss time in the Arizona Fall League. Once the team reported to Spring Training, he began experiencing the same back problems and was subsequently shut down. He has been slowly building back up, though the team has never been able to clearly define or diagnose the issue with much detail. It remains to be seen whether he will make his Major League debut at all this season, and his value as a prospect to stash is slowly diminishing in value.

Patrick Bailey Traded to the Cleveland Guardians
The Cleveland Guardians have traded for 26-year-old catcher Patrick Bailey in exchange for left-handed pitching prospect Matt Wilkinson and the 29th pick in the 2026 draft. The former Giant backstop saw his playing time put in jeopardy when the San Francisco Giants called up prospect Jesus Rodriguez, who has since started behind the plate in three of his first four games. Now in Cleveland, Bailey could very well become the team's new starting catcher, as the club optioned the struggling Bo Naylor to Triple-A Columbus as a corresponding move. At the very least, he would be in a timeshare for playing time with new teammate Austin Hedges, who isn't much of a threat offensively. While Bailey does not have the strongest track record as a hitter, his elite defense should provide him with plenty of opportunities to play.

Addison Barger is Activated from the Injured List
The Toronto Blue Jays have reinstated outfielder Addison Barger from the Injured List. The 26-year-old has been absent from the team for over a month due to a sprained ankle, but he will return to the club on Saturday. He recently completed a brief rehab assignment during which he hit two home runs in three games. With his ankle feeling better, the team determined that he was ready to rejoin the club. He will bat second in the Blue Jays' lineup and should provide the team with a boost at the plate. Barger is looking to build on his slow start to the season, which saw him record just one hit in his first 23 plate appearances. The corresponding move saw 24-year-old outfielder Yohendrick Pinango optioned to Triple-A Buffalo.

Taj Bradley Hits the Injured List
The Minnesota Twins have placed starting pitcher Taj Braldey on the 15-day Injured List because of right pectoral inflammation. The right-handed hurler has had a fantastic start to the 2026 season, posting a 2.82 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, all while striking out 52 batters in just 47 innings pitched. He looked dominant in his last start last weekend, but he has since developed an injury that will require time off. He was set to start on Sunday in Cleveland, but now the team will be searching for answers. It is also unclear if he will be ready to return when first eligible, giving the Twins quite a hole to fill in their rotation long term.

Braelon Allen's Dynasty Stock Takes a Hit After Teammate's Extension
New York Jets running back Braelon Allen is still the RB2 in New York heading into the 2026 season, but the 22-year-old's dynasty stock took a hit on Friday when it was announced that the Jets signed Breece Hall to a three-year, $45.75 million contract extension that makes him the third-highest-paid RB in the league. Allen suffered an MCL injury in 2025 in his second season in the NFL that limited him to four games played. He finished with just 18 carries for 76 yards and one touchdown while catching two passes for 17 yards after he rushed for 334 yards and two touchdowns in 17 games (two starts) in his rookie season in 2024. The former fourth-rounder (134th overall) in 2024 out of the University of Wisconsin could still have plenty of fantasy value if Hall were to go down with an injury, but now that Hall is under contract with the Jets for another three seasons beyond 2026, his upside in dynasty leagues will be tempered.

Josh Allen Still the Top Dynasty QB in his Prime
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen's passing numbers took a slight dip in 2025, but he still finished as the QB1 in fantasy scoring for the fourth time in the last six seasons, thanks to his rushing prowess. Allen is the only QB with 500-plus rushing yards in each of the last five years. He's on another level in the rushing department, which gives him an incredibly high floor. He threw for 3,668 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions in 17 regular-season starts while adding 112 rushing attempts for 579 yards and 14 touchdowns on the ground. The 29-year-old might not have had the passing numbers that many were hoping for, but he did have a career-high best 69.3% completion percentage in an offense that lacked the deep threat through the air. Allen isn't going to be the most prolific passer in the league, but it certainly helps that he has a new weapon in 2026 in receiver DJ Moore, whom the Bills acquired this offseason from the Chicago Bears.

Kyler Murray Suddenly a Rising Dynasty Target in Minnesota
Quarterback Kyler Murray's dynasty stock reached an all-time low last year when he didn't play beyond Week 5 with the Arizona Cardinals due to a foot sprain. It was the beginning of the end of his time in Arizona after the Cardinals took him with the first overall pick in 2019 out of Oklahoma. Despite playing in a career-low five games and finishing as the QB38 last year, the 28-year-old's dynasty stock is surging back upwards after he was released and signed a one-year, $36.8 million deal with the Minnesota Vikings. He will take over as the starter in Minnesota over J.J. McCarthy, and although Murray hasn't played a full season in four of the last five years due to injuries, he's a rising dynasty target because of his landing spot. Murray will have arguably one of the best receiving corps to work with in Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and Jauan Jennings, not to mention tight end T.J. Hockenson. Murray should be asked to push the ball more down the field, and his high-end rushing upside will give him QB1 upside if he can stay on the field. He's in the best situation of his career. There is risk, but Murray has suddenly climbed up to the QB20 in RotoBaller's dynasty rankings going into 2026.

Kyle Bradish has Nice Bounce-Back Performance With 10 K's
Baltimore Orioles right-hander Kyle Bradish took his fifth loss of the season on Friday night against the visiting Athletics at Camden Yards, but it was a bounce-back performance nonetheless after he allowed a season-high five earned runs in four innings his last time out on May 2 against the New York Yankees. In the 4-3 loss to the A's on Friday, Bradish gave up three earned runs on five hits while walking one and striking out a season-high 10 batters. He threw 60 of his 96 total pitches for strikes and delivered his second quality start of the season despite taking his league-leading fifth loss. The 29-year-old is now 1-5 on the year with a 4.83 ERA (4.21 FIP), a 1.66 WHIP, 45 strikeouts, and 22 walks in 41 innings pitched for the O's. Fantasy managers will be hoping that this is the start of a turnaround for Bradish, but it won't get easier, as he's set for a rematch against the first-place Yankees next week. The Yankees hold the second-best OPS in baseball at .794, behind only the Dodgers.

Roki Sasaki Pushed Back to Monday Versus Giants
Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Roki Sasaki, who was originally scheduled to start on Saturday against the Atlanta Braves, will have his next start pushed back to Monday's series opener against the division-rival San Francisco Giants, according to Jack Harris of The California Post. Lefty Blake Snell (shoulder) will be reinstated from the 15-day injured list to make his season debut on Saturday against Atlanta. If not for Tyler Glasnow (back) landing on the IL on Friday, the 24-year-old Sasaki would be at risk of being bumped from the starting rotation entirely. The Japanese hurler continues to struggle with control and consistency in his second MLB season, going 1-3 with a 5.97 ERA (6.83 FIP), a 1.67 WHIP, and 26:15 K:BB in 28 2/3 innings pitched across his six starts for the Blue in 2026. He will now be on eight days of rest against SF. Despite being unreliable so far in fantasy, Sasaki did go a season-high six innings his last time out against the Cardinals, and he'll be facing a Giants team that is dead-last in OPS (.637).

Casey Mize Throws Bullpen on Friday, Return Not Imminent
Detroit Tigers right-hander Casey Mize (groin) threw a bullpen session on Friday, but he will need to face hitters in a simulated game or go on a minor-league rehab assignment before he rejoins the Tigers' starting rotation, per MLB.com. Mize has been on the 15-day injured list since April 29 due to a mild right-groin strain, and he's not expected to come off the IL until mid-May. The 29-year-old is getting close, but he still has a few boxes left to check. He should have a rotation spot waiting for him in Detroit when he's ready after going 2-2 with a 2.90 ERA (2.87 FIP) and 1.19 WHIP with 35 strikeouts and 11 walks in 31 innings over his first six starts of the 2026 campaign. Mize was a first-time All-Star in 2025 in his fifth year in the majors after the Tigers took him first overall in the 2018 draft out of Auburn. The Tigers could really use Mize back sooner rather than later, with ace Tarik Skubal (elbow) out at least a month or two. Mize's lack of strikeout upside caps his fantasy value, but he can still be a useful back-end rotation arm in the right matchups. He's currently rostered in 42% of Yahoo leagues.

Logan Webb on Track to Start Against Dodgers on Monday
San Francisco Giants right-hander Logan Webb (knee) is on track to make his next start on Monday versus the division-rival Los Angeles Dodgers, according to MLB.com. The Giants announced that Webb dealt with some left-knee soreness during his last start on Tuesday against the San Diego Padres, when he allowed a season-high six earned runs on seven hits while walking none and striking out four in four innings for his fourth loss of the year. Webb threw only 62 pitches in that outing. The 29-year-old two-time All-Star might be on track to make his next start to kick off a new week, but fantasy managers should be considering benching him coming off a knee injury against one of the best offenses in baseball. Webb is currently sporting an ERA over 5.00 with a 3.59 FIP, 1.39 WHIP, 42 strikeouts, and 15 walks in 48 innings over his first eight starts of the 2026 campaign.

Ronald Acuna Jr. Optimistic About Returning Next Wednesday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (hamstring) seems optimistic about coming off the 10-day injured list when he's eligible next Wednesday, according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com. When asked about it, manager Walt Weiss said Acuna still has some boxes to check. However, the fact that he was doing some agility work before Friday's series opener in L.A. against the Dodgers indicates that his stay on the IL shouldn't be too long. Acuna suffered a Grade 1 left-hamstring strain last Saturday and was put on the IL, but fantasy managers may not be without him for long. The 28-year-old probably will not be back in Atlanta's lineup next Wednesday, but a return at the end of next week is possible if he continues to progress at his current pace. Even though the Venezuelan outfielder's numbers don't stand out early in 2026, he remains an elite five-category contributor when healthy. Acuna currently owns a .252/.362/.378 slash line with a .740 OPS, two homers, nine RBI, 17 runs scored, and seven steals in 34 games in 2026.

Mike Matheson Leads by Example in Game 2 Win
Montreal Canadiens defenseman Mike Matheson had not scored a goal in 16 postseason games. Matheson had easily been passed on the offensive depth chart among defenseman by Lane Hutson and Noah Dobson. However, the defender fired a slapper past Alex Lyon on Friday against the Buffalo Sabres that turned heads. Matheson made the game 2-0 less than five minutes into the contest. From there, the defenseman made an impact in other ways with three shots on goal, three blocked shots, and protecting Zach Benson's head. Also, Matheson logged a game-high 26:44 of ice time on 25 shifts in the Game 2 road triumph.

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jakub Dobes and the Canadiens have altered wins and losses this postseason. The young goaltender has won five times in nine starts. However, Friday was the fourth time he won after a defeat against the Buffalo Sabres. In those games, Dobes is an amazing 4-0 with a 1.49 goals-against average and a .946 save percentage. The Montreal goaltender has five quality starts this postseason and stopped 28 of 29 shots in Game 2. That included 10 Buffalo shots on the Sabres' power play. Dobes may not have had his finest effort on Wednesday, but like Montreal, he roared back on Friday night.

Andrew Vaughn Emerging as Sneaky Waiver-Wire Option
Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Andrew Vaughn joined the team in a midseason trade last year and had a monster second half, making him a nice waiver wire addition. He's looking to run it back this season and is back with the team after missing over a month with a fractured hamate bone suffered on Opening Day. Vaughn went 0-for-4 in his first game back but went 2-for-4 with a homer on Wednesday and 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, and two runs scored on Friday against the Yankees. He's hitting .267 with a .389 wOBA in his extremely small sample size this year, and after joining the Brewers just after July 4 last year, he hit .308 with a .373 wOBA and nine homers in 64 games. Especially in leagues that reward high batting average and run production, Vaughn should have value for as long as he's a regular, everyday part of the Brew Crew's lineup. He is worth adding in all standard 12-team leagues if needing a boost in your corner infield position.

Rachaad White Undervalued in Dynasty Leagues Despite a Path to Upside
Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White is being valued as a low-end RB4 in consensus dynasty rankings despite arguably landing in his best situation since finishing as the RB7 in 2023. For the past two seasons in Tampa, White has split the backfield with another capable pass-catcher in Bucky Irving, but upon signing a one-year deal with the Commanders, the dedicated receiving role looks to be entirely his. None of the other backs currently on the roster topped 26 receptions in 2025, and on his way to becoming Penn State's all-time leading rusher, sixth-round pick Kaytron Allen never recorded more than 18 catches in a season. White's 40 receptions in 2025 marked a career low after averaging 55 catches across his first three seasons. He is RotoBaller's dynasty RB35, despite exceeding that finish in each of the last three years, making him a low-cost trade target who should provide a safe weekly floor through target volume alone, while still having a chance to carve out a larger role in a below-average running back room.

Alex Newhook Sets Tone in Big Montreal Victory
Montreal Canadiens center Alex Newhook got the goal-scoring started for the Canadiens a mere 96 seconds into Game 2 against the Buffalo Sabres. Newhook found his way into a position to score again to make it 3-0 early in the second period. The center now has three goals in his last three games. Overall, Newhook blocked a shot and got four shots on goal in Game 2. That gives him four points in nine postseason contests for Montreal. Newhook may have missed 40 games during the regular season, but he is making a difference in the playoffs. The last two games, in particular, have seen Newhook rack up eight shots and seven scoring chances.
