Pete and Nick highlight the best fantasy pickups entering the 12th week of the season and are joined by “Waiver Wire” James Harding (@WaiverWireJames).

Other players discussed include Paul Stastny, Noah Dobson, Kaapo Kahkonen, Laurent Brossoit, Spencer Knight, Rasmus Dahlin, Alex Tuch, Taylor Hall, Martin Necas, Ross Colton, Alexander Barabanov, Anton Lundell and more.
