Defense Loses Championships?
I win a lot in fantasy hockey. I often win the league and am almost always a top threat. There is one common thread I have followed in my success in head-to-head leagues. I don’t overpay for defensemen. It just isn’t necessary. There are several factors against it.

Breaking Down Colorado Goalie Prospects
With every NHL team’s training camp come high expectations for some goalies, yet absolutely none for others. Many of the netminders in Colorado’s first day of camp, at a glance, had low expectations to make the club. But after breaking down the ones behind Peter Budaj, there’s much more than meets the eye. This includes Andrew Raycroft, Jason Bacashihua and Peter Delmas. Now Tony Granato has verbally confirmed that Budaj is the No. 1 goalie for over a week, so this column does not analyze his first day of camp – same goes for Tyler Weiman, since I feel he’s going to be a full-time NHL’er in a few seasons.

La Mentalité Jeune Défenseur
Vous allez voir ceci arriver encore longtemps. Un défenseur de 18 ans a une frénésie dans certains cercles de la LNH et conséquemment, dans les médias, alors le statut du défenseur monte aux yeux des poolers. Erik Johnson? Il sera une vedette. Ed Jovanovski? Vous devez l’avoir. Chris Pronger? Je le prends avec le premier choix au total!
Ceci est la mauvaise approche et cet énoncé devient encore plus important dans les repêchages cette année, à cause des défenseurs à potentiel élevé choisis dans le repêchage de 2008.
The Young D-Man Mentality
( cliquez ici pour la version française )
You see it happen time and again. An 18-year-old defenseman is hyped in NHL circles and, subsequently, the media and as a result their stature rises in the eyes of fantasy owners. Erik Johnson? Oh, he is going to be a superstar. Ed Jovanovski? Gotta have him. Chris Pronger? I’m taking him first overall!
This is the wrong approach and this statement becomes even more important in fantasy drafts this year, given the high-end defensemen selected at the 2008 NHL draft.

Sergei Gonchar injured his shoulder in last night's game and went to the dressing room. No word on the extent. Suddenly... Alex Goligoski is looking pretty good to make this team. Mikhail Grabovsky is centering a line with Antropov and Ponikarovsky as the wingers. If this holds up, Grabovsky is every bit of the sleeper [...]
