As expected, Trevor Linden has now signed with the Canucks. His production will be similar to last year's.  LINK is fixed below...  Some free advertising for Dobber - thanks guys!

Patrick Lebeau has been invited to the Flyers training camp. Remember him? Doubtful he'll crack the squad.  For the first time in about 10 months, ramblings were missing for a day. It's not that I didn't look, or try - there was just no news to speak of. We have hit rock bottom for the summer [...]

We've tried this before. Okay, we try it every year. But all efforts to duplicate the passion,
excitement and overall atmosphere of the '72 Summit Series have been in vain. But maybe,
just maybe, the powers that be will get it right with the Canada/Russia Super Series,
August 27th to September 9th. Here's who to watch on Team Canada- as well as some
little-known trivia- as we at DobberHockey gear up for the (only) hockey event of the
summer.

Six weeks after re-signing a contract with Columbus, Russian center Alexander Svitov signed a deal with Avangaard of the RSL. Gotta love players who don't honor contracts. Hey, at least he broke his signed agreement early, rather than pretending that he would honor it right up until the season began! Anyway, his departure opens up [...]

If you buy a pool guide any time after 1pm (EST) Friday until 3pm Sunday, it will be emailed to you after 4pm on Sunday. I'll be away for a couple of days, sorry for the inconvenience. TSN is reporting that Markus Naslund has called Forsberg to convince him to join the Canucks. Regardless of whether [...]

As keeper league hockey pools increase in number each year, fantasy junkies become more active in the off-season as they prepare their team for the coming year. Rebuild? Retool? Tweak? Whatever your intentions, it helps to get all the information you can about your players.

Throughout the off-season, FPL will look at a pair of teams each week and give you the fantasy lowdown. Bucking the trend of past years, we will review alphabetically – in reverse. Just to be different.

The rumors were true - the Islanders signed Josef Vasicek to a one-year contract. Jason Allison is still looking for a home.   Correction from a reader - Mark Bell played once in Canada last season - Feb 24 in Calgary. There goes my conspiracy theory!  The Vancouver Canucks finally met with Trevor Linden last night. Surprisingly, [...]
